HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION
Carburetor Modifications
The standard carburetor air-fuel mixture may be too rich when operated at high altitude resulting in possible decreased performance
and increased fuel consumption. Please have an authorized Ariens Service Center modify this engine’s carburetor if it is operated
continuously above 5000 feet. Failure to modify may result in poor engine performance, spark plug fouling, hard starting, and increased
emissions.
Carburetor modication by an authorized Ariens Service Center will improve performance and allow this engine to continually meet US
EPA and California ARB emission standards throughout its useful life.
Important Note
When the carburetor has been modied for high altitude operation, the air-fuel mixture may be too lean for operation at 5000 feet or
below. This could result in the engine overheating and could cause serious engine damage. Please have an authorized Ariens Service
Center restore high altitude converted carburetors back to the original factory specication before operating below 5000 feet.
