My name is Professor du Lotz. I will be your navigator through this study guide, providing you with sample questions, important study hints and additional reference resources. The guide has been developed to give you a clear understanding of the context and style of Kohler’s Technician Certification Test. It is designed to be educational, meaningful, and even provide a smile or two. Most of the information in this guide relates specifically to Kohler products and factory-suggested procedures. The guide does not cover basic four- stroke fundamentals in detail, but there are some in the first section to get you in the right frame of mind. It is assumed that candidates already have a thorough understanding of topics covered in EETC Certification Test. This study guide is in a similar format to the actual test and has sample questions that may appear on the actual test. The actual test will be broken down into the following sections: Engine Theory Electrical Theory & Troubleshooting Fuel Systems Engine Measurements Engine Analysis & Warranty Service/Maintenance/Tool Usage Although this guide does not cover all of these topics, it will prepare you for the types of questions that may be drawn from each of these areas for the actual test. To adequately understand these subjects, I highly recommend you review the following Kohler Co. booklets and manuals, which are included in this study guide. Owners Manual Command 18-26 TP-2474-H Service Manual Command 18-745 TP-2428-B Measurement Guide TP-2159-B Principles of Engine Operation TP-2209 Specs & Torques Book TP-2469 Parts Identification is not listed or part of the actual exam, but it is beneficial that you have knowledge of parts look-up procedures. It will help with nomenclature and identifying certain items, which may be Kohler specific.

To help you prepare for the areas of the test that relate to Kohler products and procedures, this study sheet contains sample questions similar to those you can expect to encounter on the exam. An answer sheet is included at the back of the study guide (No peeking!). The guide also includes Kohler reference materials which you can use as study materials now, and on the job later. If you need to familiarize yourself with additional reference materials that are not included in this guide, those materials will be listed in the front of each section. NOTE: The design and intent of the certification test is not to see how much you have memorized, but more importantly, that you can find the information needed. Therefore this test allows the use of service manuals and/or the study guide. Our goal is to help you successfully complete the exam. If, after reviewing the guide, you have any questions about the test, contact the Kohler Technical Publications Department at (920) 453-5808 or (920) 457-4441 ext. 77172. Good Luck! ABOUT CERTIFICATION Kohler Expert Dealers are required to have one (1) certified technician (two would be preferred) on staff. To gain certification, candidates must pass the Kohler Technicians Certification test and be renewed every three years, in conjunction with attending annual Kohler Technician Update schools. Benefits of Kohler Certification are both personal and professional. Certification helps ensure that technicians are able to provide the highest quality service and assistance to owners of Kohler-powered equipment. Certified Technicians are authorized to approve short block, miniblock, and engine replacements under warranty, at Expert Dealer locations. Equally important, technicians gain prestige and credibility in the eyes of customers who appreciate doing business with factory-certified professionals. In particular, individuals who rely on Kohler-powered equipment to make their living or to keep their businesses operating are more likely to seek out Expert Dealers because of the higher caliber of service they can expect to receive from Certified Technicians. Similarly, equipment sales are often enhanced because customers are assured that Kohler Expert Dealers are better able to quickly take care of service problems both during and after the warranty period. Certified Technicians are valuable Expert Dealer resources who provide: • Courteous, knowledgeable responses to customer questions. • Fast and accurate diagnosis of customer problems. • Quick turnaround of customer equipment when it requires service. Those who wear Kohler’s official Certified Technician emblem on their uniforms are distinguished as having exceptional competence and high standards for meeting customer needs and expectations.

Kohler state-of-the-art engines are manufactured to precise specifications and exacting tolerances. They are subjected to countless balance, vibration, quality and parts compatibility tests to ensure exact component fit and reliable operation. Randomly selected imitation replacement parts show extreme variations in quality and fit. The compromise made in the production of these imitations affect performance and engine life. The use of imitation parts can damage a customer’s equipment and your reputation. Kohler genuine parts have the same consistent quality that is built into every Kohler Engine. Technicians can educate customers about the time and resources that are spent in research, design and production of every part that goes into a Kohler engine. Customers should know that significant design and quality differences can exist between genuine parts and imitation replacements. Over time, the performance and reliability of a Kohler engine is best protected by using parts manufactured to original equipment specifications.
