Exhaust Emission Control System for models
CHI 8,20,22,23,25,730,740 is EM. Exhaust Emission
Control System for model CH26 is EM, 02S, ECM, MFI.
Model Designation

Operating Instructions
Also read the operating instructions of the equipment
this engine powers.
Pre-Start Checklist
Check oil level. Add oil if low. Do not overfill.
Check fuel level. Add fuel if low.
Check cooling air intake areas and external
surfaces of engine. Make sure they are clean and
unobstructed.
Check that the air cleaner components and all
shrouds, equipment covers, and guards are in
place and securely fastened.
Check that any clutches or transmissions are
disengaged or placed in neutral. This is especially
important on equipment with hydrostatic drive. The
shift lever must be exactly in neutral to prevent
resistance which could keep the engine from starting.
a
WARNING: Lethal Exhaust Gases!
Engine exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon
monoxide. Carbon monoxide is odorless, colorless,
and can cause death if inhaled. Avoid inhaling exhaust
fumes, and never run the engine in a closed building or
confined area.
Cold Weather Starting Hints
1.
Be sure to use the proper oil for the temperature
expected. See Figure 3 on page 5.
2. Disengage all possible external loads.
3. Be sure the battery is in good condition. A warm
battery has much more starting capacity than a
cold battery.
4. Use fresh winter grade fuel. NOTE: Winter grade
gasoline has higher volatility to improve starting.
Do not use gasoline left over from summer.
