SINGLE CYLINDER ENGINES

IMPORTANT
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
All points
of operation and maintenance have been covered as carefully as possible
but if further information is required, inquiries sent to the factory
will receive prompt attention.
When
writing the factory ALWAYS GIVE THE MODEL, SPECIFICATION AND SERIAL NUMBER
of engine referred to.
STARTING
AND OPERATING OF NEW ENGINES
Careful breaking in of a new engine will greatly increase its life and
result in trouble-free operation. A factory test is not sufficient to
establish the polished bearing surfaces, which are so necessary to the
proper performance and long life of an engine. Neither is there a quick
way to force the establishment of good bearing surfaces. These can only
be obtained by running a new engine carefully and under reduced speeds
and loads for a short time, as follows:
First,
be sure the engine is filled to the proper level with a good quality of
engine oil, see «Grade of Oil" chart.
Before
a new engine is put to its regular work, the engine should be operated
at low idle speed (1000 to 1200 R.P.M.) for one half hour, without load.
The R.P.M. should then be increased to engine operating speed, still without
load, for an additional two hours.
If at
all possible, operate the engine at light loads, for a period totaling
about eight hours, before maximum load is applied. This will greatly increase
engine life.
The various
bearing surfaces in a new engine have not been glazed, as they will be
with continued operation, and it is in this period of "running in," that
special care must be exercised, otherwise the highly desired glaze will
never be obtained. A new bearing surface that has once been damaged by
carelessness will be ruined forever.
Our engine
warranty is printed on the inside back cover of this manual. Read it carefully.

INTRODUCTION
|
This manual
has been compiled to suit the service requirements of the basic
engine and accessories most commonlysupplied with the engine.
Teledyne Wisconsin
adapts its engines to suit individual customer requirements whenever
practical. However, it would become too involved to include all
variations in one manual; therefore, should any problems arise concerning
engine servicing, we advise that a Teledyne Total Power Distributor
or authorized Service Center be contacted, as they are capable of
identifying all parts by the specification number stamped on the
name plate of engine.
WISCONSIN heavy
duty air cooled engines are of the most advanced design and are
built in a modern factory, equipped with the latest machinery available.
|
Only the best
materials, most suitable for the particular part, are used. During
production, every part is subjected to the most rigid inspection,
as are also the completely assembled engines. After assembly, every
engine is operated on its own power for several hours. All adjustments
are carefully made so that each engine will be in perfect operating
condition when it leaves the factory.
Teledyne Wisconsin
Motor is backed by over seventy years of engineering experience
in the design of internal-combustion engines for every conceivable
type of service. The performance of these engines is proof of the
long satisfactory service you too can expect from your engine.
Like all fine
machinery, the engine must be given regular care and be operated
in accordance with the instructions.

Safety
Precautions
|
|
Never fill fuel
tank while engine is running or hot; avoid the possibility of spilled
fuel causing a fire.
Always refuel
slowly to avoid spillage.
When starting
engine, maintain a safe distance from moving parts of equipment.
Do not start
engine with clutch engaged.
Do not operate
engine in a closed building unless the exhaust is piped outside.
This exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a poisonous, odorless and
invisible gas, which if breathed causes serious illness and possible
death.

|
Never run engine
with governor disconnected, or operate at speeds in excess of 3600
R.P.M. load.
Never make adjustments
on machinery while it is connected to the engine, without first
removing the ignition cable from the spark plug Turning the machinery
over by hand during adjusting or cleaning might start the engine
and machinery with it, causing serious injury to the operator.
Precaution is
the best insurance against accidents.
