    TECHNICAL INFORMATION
    Engine Power Rating Information
    The gross power rating for individual gas engine models is
    labeled in accordance with SAE (Society of Automotive
    Engineers) code J1940 (Small Engine Power & Torque
    Rating Procedure), and rating performance has been
    obtained and corrected in accordance with SAE J1995
    (Revision 2002-05). Torque values are derived at 3060
    RPM; horsepower values are derived at 3600 RPM. Actual
    gross engine power will be lower and is affected by, among
    other things, ambient operating conditions and engine-to-en-
    gine variability. Given both the wide array of products on
    which engines are placed and the variety of environmental
    issues applicable to operating the equipment, the gas
    engine will not develop the rated gross power when used in
    a given piece of power equipment (actual on-site" or net
    power). This difference is due to a variety of factors
    including, but not limited to, accessories (air cleaner,
    exhaust, charging, cooling, carburetor, fuel pump, etc.),
    application limitations, ambient operating conditions
    (temperature, humidity, altitude), and engine-to-engine
    variability. Due to manufacturing and capacity limitations,
    Briggs & Stratton may substitute an engine of higher rated
    power for this Series engine.

    OIL RECOMMENDATIONS
    CAUTION: 
    Engine shipped from Briggs & Stratton without oil. Beforestarting engine, fill with oil. Do not over-fill.
    Use a high quality detergent oil classified For Service SF, SG,
    SH, SJ" or higher such as Briggs & Stratton 30, Part Number
    100005. Use no special additives with recommended oils. Do
    not mix oil with gasoline.
     
    Fig. 2
    Choose the SAE viscosity grade of oil from this chart that
    matches the starting temperature anticipated before the next
    oil change.
    *Air cooled engines run hotter than automotive engines.
    The use of non-synthetic multi-viscosity oils (5W-30,
    10W-30, etc.) in temperatures above 40° F (4° C) will
    result in higher than normal oil consumption. When using
    a multi-viscosity oil, check oil level more frequently.
    **Use of SAE 30 oil below 40° F (4° C) will result in hard
    starting and possible engine damage due to inade-
    quate lubrication.
    Note:Synthetic oil meeting ILSAC GF-2, API
    certification mark and API service symbol (shown
    at left) with SJ/CF ENERGY CONSERVING" or
    higher, is an acceptable oil at all temperatures.
    Use of synthetic oil does not alter required oil
    change intervals.
    Check oil level.
    Oil capacity is about (22 ounces or .65 liter) if engine is not
    equipped with oil filter. If engine is equipped with oil filter, add 4
    more ounces (.1 liter) when changing oil filter.
    Place engine level and clean around oil fill 
    .
    Remove dipstick, wipe with clean cloth, insert and tighten
    down again. Remove dipstick and check oil level. Oil should be
    at FULL mark 
    .
    If oil is required, add slowly. Tighten dipstick firmly before
    starting engine.
    FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS
    Use clean, fresh, lead-free, regular gasoline with a minimum of
    85 octane. Leaded gasoline may be used if it is commercially
    available and if unleaded is unavailable. Purchase fuel in
    quantity that can be used within 30 days. See storage
    instructions.
    In U.S.A. leaded gasoline may not be used. Some fuels, called
    oxygenated or reformulated gasolines, are gasolines blended
    with alcohols or ethers. Excessive amounts of these blends
    can damage the fuel system or cause performance problems.
    If any undesirable operating symptoms occur, use gasoline
    with a lower percentage of alcohol or ether.
    This engine is certified to operate on gasoline. Exhaust
    Emission Control System: EM (Engine Modifications).
    Do not use gasoline which contains Methanol. Do not mix oil
    with gasoline.
    For engine protection, we recommend using Briggs & Stratton
    Fuel Stabilizer available from an Authorized Briggs & Stratton
    Service Dealer.
    ADDING FUEL
    WARNING
    Before refueling, allow
    engine to cool 2 minutes.
    Clean around fuel fill before removing cap to refuel. Remove
    cap. Fill tank to approximately 1-1/2 inches below top of neck
    to allow for fuel expansion. Be careful not to overfill.

     could cause a fire.
    Inspect and clean before every use.
    If muffler is equipped with spark arrester screen 
    , remove
    spark arrester screen for cleaning and inspection. Replace if
    damaged.
    Periodically remove grass and chaff build-up from engine.
    Clean finger guard 
    .
    CAUTION: DO NOT use water to clean engine parts. Water could
    contaminate fuel system. Use a brush or dry cloth.
    STORAGE
    Engines stored over 30 days need special attention.
    To prevent gum from forming in fuel system or on essential
    carburetor parts:
    a) if fuel tank contains oxygenated or reformulated gasoline
    (gasoline blended with an alcohol or an ether), run engine until
    it stops from lack of fuel, or b) if fuel tank contains gasoline,
    either run engine until it stops from lack of fuel, or add a
    gasoline stabilizer to the gas in the tank.
    Note:If stabilizer is used, run the engine for several
    minutes to circulate the additive through the carburetor.
    Then engine and fuel can be stored.

    Briggs & Stratton Corporation (B&S), 
    the California Air Resources Board (CARB)
    and the United States 
    Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA)
    Emissions Control System Warranty Statement 
    (Owner’s Defect Warranty Rights and Obligations)Briggs & Stratton Emissions Control
    Defects Warranty Provisions
    Engines that are certified to meet the California Air
    Resources Board (CARB) Tier 2 Emissions Standards must
    display information regarding the Emissions Durability
    Period and the Air Index. Briggs & Stratton makes this
    information available to the consumer on our emissions
    labels. The engine emissions label will indicate certification
    information.
    The Emissions Durability Period describes the number of
    hours of actual running time for which the engine is certified
    to be emissions compliant, assuming proper maintenance
    in accordance with the Operating & Maintenance
    Instructions. The following categories are used:
    Moderate:
    Engine is certified to be emissions compliant for 125 hours
    of actual engine running time.
    Intermediate:
    Engine is certified to be emissions compliant for 250 hours
    of actual engine running time.
    Extended:
    Engine is certified to be emissions compliant for 500 hours
    of actual engine running time. For example, a typical
    walk-behind lawn mower is used 20 to 25 hours per year.
    Therefore, the Emissions Durability Period of an engine
    with an intermediate rating would equate to 10 to 12 years.
    Certain Briggs & Stratton engines will be certified to meet
    the United States Environmental Protection Agency
    (USEPA) Phase 2 emissions standards. For Phase 2
    certified engines, the Emissions Compliance Period
    referred to on the Emissions Compliance label indicates the
    number of operating hours for which the engine has been
    shown to meet Federal emissions requirements.
    For engines less than 225 CC displacement
    Category C = 125 hours
    Category B = 250 hours
    Category A = 500 hours
    For engines of 225 CC or more displacement
    Category C = 250 hours
    Category B = 500 hours
    Category A = 1000 hours
    In the U.S.A., the 120000 engines covered in this manual are
    certified by the California Air Resources Board to meet
    emissions standards for 50 hours. Such certification does not
    grant the purchaser, owner or operator of this engine any
    additional warranties with respect to the performance or
    operational life of this engine. This engine is warranted solely
    according to the product and emissions warranties stated
    elsewhere in this manual.

    trol Defects Warranty Statement
    The California Air Resources Board (CARB), U.S. EPA and B&S
    are pleased to explain the Emissions Control System Warranty
    on your  small off-road engine (SORE). In California,  new small
    off-road engines model year  2006 and later must be designed,
    built and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog stan-
    dards. Elsewhere in the United States, new non-road, spark-igni-
    tion engines certified for model year 1997 and later must meet
    similar standards set forth by the U.S. EPA. B&S must warrant
    the emissions control system on your engine for the periods of
    time listed below, provided there has been no abuse, neglect or
    improper maintenance of your small off-road engine.
    Your emissions control system includes parts such as the car-
    buretor, air cleaner, ignition system, fuel line, muffler and cat-
    alytic converter. Also included may be connectors and other
    emissions related assemblies.
    Where a warrantable condition exists, B&S will repair your
    small off-road engine at no cost to you including diagnosis,
    parts and labor.
    Briggs & Stratton Emissions Control 
    Defects Warranty Coverage
    Small off-road engines are warranted relative to emissions
    control parts defects for a period of two years, subject to provi-
    sions set forth below. If any covered part on your engine is de-
    fective, the part will be repaired or replaced by B&S.
    Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities
    As the small off-road engine owner, you are responsible for
    the performance of the required maintenance listed in your
    Operating and Maintenance Instructions. B&S recommends
    that you retain all your receipts covering maintenance on your
    small off-road engine, but B&S cannot deny warranty solely
    for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the perfor-
    mance of all scheduled maintenance.
    As the small off-road engine owner, you should however be
    aware that B&S may deny you warranty coverage if your small
    off-road engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, im-
    proper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
    You are responsible for presenting your small off-road engine
    to an Authorized B&S Service Dealer as soon as a problem
    exists. The undisputed warranty repairs should be completed
    in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
    If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and
    responsibilities, you should contact a B&S Service Represen-
    tative at 1-414-259-5262.
    The emissions warranty is a defects warranty. Defects are
    judged on normal engine performance. The warranty is not re-
    lated to an in-use emissions test.The following are specific provisions relative to your Emissions
    Control Defects Warranty Coverage. It is in addition to the B&S
    engine warranty for non-regulated engines found in the Opera-
    ting and Maintenance Instructions.

    ABOUT YOUR ENGINE WARRANTY
    Briggs & Stratton welcomes warranty repair and apologizes to
    you for being inconvenienced. Any Authorized Service Dealer
    may perform warranty repairs. Most warranty repairs are han-
    dled routinely, but sometimes requests for warranty service
    may not be appropriate. For example, warranty would not apply
    if engine damage occurred because of misuse, lack of routine
    maintenance, shipping, handling, warehousing or improper
    installation. Similarly, warranty is void if the serial number of the
    engine has been removed or the engine has been altered or
    modified.
    If a customer differs with the decision of the Service Dealer, an
    investigation will be made to determine whether the warranty
    applies. Ask the Service Dealer to submit all supporting facts to
    his Distributor or the Factory for review. If the Distributor or the
    Factory decides that the claim is justified, the customer will be
    fully reimbursed for those items that are defective. To avoid mis-
    understanding which might occur between the customer and
    the Dealer, listed below are some of the causes of engine failure
    that the warranty does not cover.
    Normal wear:
    Engines, like all mechanical devices, need periodic parts service
    and replacement to perform well. Warranty will not cover repair
    when normal use has exhausted the life of a part or an engine.
    Improper maintenance:
    The life of an engine depends upon the conditions under which it
    operates, and the care it receives. Some applications, such as
    tillers, pumps and rotary mowers, are very often used in dusty or
    dirty conditions, which can cause what appears to be premature
    wear. Such wear, when caused by dirt, dust, spark plug cleaninggrit, or other abrasive material that has entered the engine be-
    cause of improper maintenance, is not covered by warranty.
    This warranty covers engine related defective material and/
    or workmanship only
    , and not replacement or refund of the
    equipment to which the engine may be mounted. Nor does
    the warranty extend to repairs required because of:
    1. PROBLEMS CAUSED BY PARTS THAT ARE NOT
    ORIGINAL BRIGGS & STRATTON PARTS.
    2. Equipment controls or installations that prevent starting,
    cause unsatisfactory engine performance, or shorten en-
    gine life. (Contact equipment manufacturer.)
    3. Leaking carburetors, clogged fuel pipes, sticking valves,
    or other damage, caused by using contaminated or stale
    fuel. (Use clean, fresh, lead-free gasoline and Briggs &
    Stratton Fuel Stabilizer, Part No. 5041.)
    4. Parts which are scored or broken because an engine was
    operated with insufficient or contaminated lubricating oil,
    or an incorrect grade of lubricating oil (check oil level daily
    or after every 8 hours of operation. Refill when necessary
    and change at recommended intervals.) OIL GARD may
    not shut down running engine. Engine damage may occur
    if oil level is not properly maintained. Read Operating &
    Maintenance Instructions.
    5. Repair or adjustment of associated parts or assemblies
    such as clutches, transmissions, remote controls, etc.,
    which are not manufactured by Briggs & Stratton.
    6. Damage or wear to parts caused by dirt, which entered
    the engine because of improper air cleaner maintenance,
    re-assembly, or use of a non-original air cleaner element
    or cartridge. (At recommended intervals, clean and re-oilthe Oil-Foam
     element or the foam pre-cleaner, and
    replace the cartridge.) Read Operating & Maintenance
    Instructions.
    7. Parts damaged by over-speeding, or overheating caused
    by grass, debris, or dirt, which plugs or clogs the cooling
    fins, or flywheel area, or damage caused by operating the
    engine in a confined area without sufficient ventilation.
    (Clean fins on the cylinder, cylinder head and flywheel at
    recommended intervals.) Read Operating & Maintenance
    Instructions.
    8. Engine or equipment parts broken by excessive vibration
    caused by a loose engine mounting, loose cutter blades,
    unbalanced blades or loose or unbalanced impellers, im-
    proper attachment of equipment to engine crankshaft,
    over-speeding or other abuse in operation.
    9. A bent or broken crankshaft, caused by striking a solid ob-
    ject with the cutter blade of a rotary lawn mower, or exces-
    sive v-belt tightness.
    10. Routine tune-up or adjustment of the engine.
    11. Engine or engine component failure, i.e., combustion
    chamber, valves, valve seats, valve guides, or burned
    starter motor windings, caused by the use of alternate
    fuels such as, liquified petroleum, natural gas, altered
    gasolines, etc.
    Warranty is available only through service dealers which
    have been authorized by Briggs & Stratton Corporation.
    your nearest Authorized Service Dealer is listed in the Yel-
    low Pages™" of your telephone directory under Engines,
