Abstract: A power tool having a rotary implement driven by a four-cycle engine. The engine crankcase is through a passageway which extends through a camshaft to a valve chamber. The rotating shaft member inhibits the escape of lubricating oil when the engine is running while permitting a lubricating oil mist to circulate through the engine.

Abstract: A power tool having a rotary implement driven by a four-cycle engine. The engine crankcase is vented via an axial passageway which extends through at least one cam shaft axial shaft of the crankshaft and cam shaft. The rotating shaft member inhibits the escape of oil when the engine is running due to centrifugal force.

Abstract: A power takeoff adapter for extending a power shaft such as the crankshaft of an engine. The power takeoff adapter includes a male pin adapted to be received in a complementary female receptacle in the crankshaft, wherein torque applied during operation initially tightens the coupling between the adapter and the crankshaft.

Abstract: An improved rocker box cover assembly for an overhead valve, horizontal crankshaft, internal combustion engine. The cover assembly is a pre-assembled unit attached to the cylinder head and includes an inner cover section, which defines a rocker arm chamber, and an outer cover section with the space between the sections defining an oil separating chamber. The inner cover section is provided with an opening that provides communication between the chambers and a check valve is mounted in the opening. A gas outlet is located in the upper portion of the oil separating chamber while a drain opening is located in the lower end of the separating chamber and separated oil drains through the drain opening and is returned to the crankcase.

Abstract: Apparatus is disclosed that separately delivers air and fuel to an engine carburetor while minimizing the number of components. The fuel tank is integrally formed with the air box and the air filter housing so that the air passageway from the air filter to the carburetor intake is at least partially defined by a common wall between the fuel tank and the air filter housing. The opposite air passageway wall is in part defined by the air filter itself. A flexible, substantially tubular elbow is used to connect the air box outlet to the carburetor intake.
