ENGINE ANGLE OF OPERATION:

The engines can be operated at angles up to 25 degrees. Check oil level to assure crank-
case oil level is at the full mark.
NOTE: Do not operate this engine continuously at angles exceeding 25 degrees in any
direction. Serious engine damage can occur from insufficient oil supply.

COOLING:

NOTE: If debris builds up on the grass screen or other cooling air intake areas, stop the

engine immediately and clean. Running this engine with blocked or dirty air intake and
cooling areas can cause extensive damage due to overheating.

ENGINE SPEED:

Over speed is hazardous and will void engine warranty. The maximum allowable high
idle speed for the Allmand TLB is 3400 RPM (gas engine) and 3000 RPM (diesel
engine) with no load.
