Service Cooling System
WARNING
Running engines produce heat. Engine parts, especially muffler, become
extremely hot.
Severe thermal burns can occur on contact.
Combustible debris, such as leaves, grass, brush, etc., can catch fire.
Allow muffler, engine cylinder and fins to cool before touching.
Remove accumulated debris from muffler area and cylinder area.
NOTICE Do not use water to clean the engine. Water could contaminate the fuel
system. Use a brush or dry cloth to clean the engine.
This is an air cooled engine. Dirt or debris can restrict air flow and cause the engine to
overheat, resulting in poor performance and reduced engine life.
1. Use a brush or dry cloth to remove debris from the air intake grille.
2. Keep linkage, springs and controls clean.
3. Keep the area around and behind the muffler, if equipped, free of any combustible
debris.
4. Make sure the oil cooler fins, if equipped, are free of dirt and debris.
After a period of time, debris can accumulate in the cylinder cooling fins and cause the
engine to overheat. This debris cannot be removed without partial disassembly of the
engine. Have a Briggs & Stratton Authorized Service Dealer inspect and clean the air
cooling system as recommended in the Maintenance Schedule.
Storage
WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
When Storing Fuel Or Equipment With Fuel In Tank
Store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters or other appliances that have
pilot lights or other ignition sources because they can ignite fuel vapors.
Fuel System
See Figure:20
Store the engine level (normal operating position). Fill fuel tank (A, Figure20) with fuel.
To allow for expansion of fuel, do not overfill above the fuel tank neck (B).
Fuel can become stale when kept in a storage container for more than 30 days. Each
time you fill the container with fuel, addfuel stabilizerto the fuel as specified by the
manufacturer’s instructions. This keeps fuel fresh and decreases fuel-related problems
or contamination in the fuel system.
It is not necessary to drain fuel from the engine whenfuel stabilizeris added as
instructed. Before storage, turn the engine ON for 2 minutes to move the fuel and
stabilizer through the fuel system.
If gasoline in the engine has not been treated with a fuel stabilizer, it must be drained
into an approved container. Run the engine until it stops from lack of fuel. The use of a
fuel stabilizer in the storage container is recommended to maintain freshness.
Engine Oil
While the engine is still warm, change the engine oil. See the Change Engine Oil
section.

Power Ratings:The gross power rating for individual gasoline engine models is
labeled in accordance with SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) code J1940 Small
Engine Power & Torque Rating Procedure, and is rated in accordance with SAE J1995.
Torque values are derived at 2600 RPM for those engines with “rpm” called out on the
label and 3060 RPM for all others; horsepower values are derived at 3600 RPM. The
gross power curves can be viewed at www.BRIGGSandSTRATTON.COM. Net power
values are taken with exhaust and air cleaner installed whereas gross power values
are collected without these attachments. Actual gross engine power will be higher than
net engine power and is affected by, among other things, ambient operating conditions
and engine-to-engine variability. Given the wide array of products on which engines
are placed, the gasoline engine may not develop the rated gross power when used in a
given piece of power equipment. This difference is due to a variety of factors including,
but not limited to, the variety of engine components (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 engine.

Look For Relevant Emissions Durability Period and Air Index Information On
Your Small Off-Road Engine Emissions Label
Engines that are certified to meet the California Air Resources Board (CARB) small off-
road Emissions Standard 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 Operator’s Manual. The following categories are
used:
Moderate:
Engines at or less than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for
50 hours of actual engine running time. Engines greater than 80 cc displacement are
certified to be emissions compliant for 125 hours of actual engine running time.
Intermediate:
Engines at or less than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for
125 hours of actual engine running time. Engines greater than 80 cc displacement are
certified to be emissions compliant for 250 hours of actual engine running time.
Extended:
Engines at or less than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for
300 hours of actual engine running time. Engines greater than 80 cc displacement are
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.
Briggs & Stratton engines are certified to meet the United States Environmental
Protection Agency (USEPA) Phase 2 or Phase 3 emissions standards. The Emissions

2. Length of Coverage
Coverage is for a period of two years from the date of delivery to an ultimate
purchaser, or for the time period listed in the respective engine or product
warranty statement, whichever is greater. B&S warrants to the original purchaser
and each subsequent purchaser that the engine is designed, built, and equipped
so as to conform with all applicable regulations adopted by the Air Resources
Board; that it is free from defects in material and workmanship that could cause
the failure of a warranted part; and that it is identical in allmaterial respects to the
engine described in the manufacturer’s application for certification. The warranty
period begins on the date the engine or equipment is delivered to an ultimate
purchaser.
The warranty on emissions-related parts is as follows:
Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required
maintenance in the Operator’s Manual supplied, is warranted for the
warranty period stated above. If any such part fails during the period of
warranty coverage, the part will be repaired or replaced by B&S at no
charge to the owner. Any such part repaired or replaced under the warranty
will be warranted for the remaining warranty period.
Any warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection in the
Operator’s Manual supplied, is warranted for the warranty period stated
above. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty will be warranted
for the remaining warranty period.
Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as required
maintenance in the Operators’s Manual supplied, is warranted for the
period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part.
If the part fails prior to the first scheduled replacement, the part will be
repaired or replaced by B&S at no charge to the owner. Any such part
repaired or replaced under warranty will be warranted for the remainder of
the period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for the part.
Add-on or modified parts that are not exempted by the Air Resources
Board may not be used. The use of any non-exempted add-on or modified
parts by the owner will be grounds for disallowing a warranty claim. The
manufacturer will not be liable to warrant failures of warranted parts caused
by the use of a non-exempted add-on or modified part.
3. Consequential Coverage
Coverage shall extend to the failure of any engine components caused by the
failure of any warranted emissions parts.
4. Claims and Coverage Exclusions
Warranty claims shall be filed according to the provisions of the B&S engine
warranty policy. Warranty coverage does not apply to failures of emissions
parts that are not original equipment B&S parts or to parts that fail due to abuse,
neglect, or improper maintenance as set forth in the B&S engine warranty policy.
B&S is not liable for warranty coverage of failures of emissions parts caused by
the use of add-on or modified parts.
Look For Relevant Emissions Durability Period and Air Index Information On
Your Small Off-Road Engine Emissions Label
Engines that are certified to meet the California Air Resources Board (CARB) small off-
road Emissions Standard 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 Operator’s Manual. The following categories are
used:
Moderate:
Engines at or less than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for
50 hours of actual engine running time. Engines greater than 80 cc displacement are
certified to be emissions compliant for 125 hours of actual engine running time.
Intermediate:
Engines at or less than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for
125 hours of actual engine running time. Engines greater than 80 cc displacement are
certified to be emissions compliant for 250 hours of actual engine running time.
Extended:
Not for
Reproduction
15
Engines at or less than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for
300 hours of actual engine running time. Engines greater than 80 cc displacement are
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.
Briggs & Stratton engines are certified to meet the United States Environmental
Protection Agency (USEPA) Phase 2 or Phase 3 emissions standards. 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 at or less than 80 cc displacement:
Category C = 50 hours, Category B = 125 hours, Category A = 300 hours
For engines greater than 80 cc displacement and 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

BEMÆRK
Denne motor blev leveret af Briggs & Stratton uden olie. Producenter eller forhandlere
af udstyret kan have fyldt olie på motoren. Inden du starter motoren første gang,
skal du sørge for at kontrollere oliestanden og påfylde olie i overensstemmelse
med vejledningerne i denne manual. Hvis du starter motoren uden olie, vil den blive
beskadiget uden mulighed for at reparere den, og det er ikke omfattet af garantien.
Vi anbefaler at bruge olie, der er certificeret af Briggs & Stratton
®
for at opnå den bedste
ydeevne. Andre selvrensende olier af høj kvalitet er acceptable, hvis de er godkendt til
SF-, SG-, SH-, SJ-service eller højere. Undlad at bruge specielle tilsætningsstoffer.
Udendørstemperaturer er afgørende for den passende olieviskositet til motoren. Brug
diagrammet til at vælge den bedste viskositet til det forventedeudendørstemperatur-
interval. Motorer i det meste udstyr til udendørs brug kører godt med syntetisk olie
5W-30. Til udstyr, der bruges i varmere temperaturer, yder Vanguard
®
15W-50 syntetisk
olie den bedste beskyttelse.
A SAE 30 -Under 40°F (4°C) vil brugen af SAE 30 gøre det svært at starte.
B 10W-30 -Over 80°F (27°C) kan brugen af 10W-30 medføre forhøjet
olieforbrug. Kontrollér oliestanden oftere.

Kontrollér oliestand
Se figur: 5
Før påfyldning eller kontrol af olien
Kontrollér, at motoren står plant.
Rengør oliepåfyldningområdet for affaldsrester.
1. Fjern oliepinden (A, figur 5) ud, og tør den af med en ren klud.
2. Sæt oliepinden helt i (A, figur 5).
3. Træk oliepinden op, og kontroller oliestanden. Du finder den korrekte oliestand
øverst på indikatoren for fuld (B, figur 5) på oliepinden.
4. Hvis oliestanden er for lav, skal du langsomt påfylde olie i motoroliepåfyldningen
(C, figur 5). Undgå at overfylde. Efter oliepåfyldningen vent et minut, og kontroller
så oliestanden.
5. Sæt oliepinden helt i (A, figur 5).
Beskyttelsessystem for lav oliestand
(hvis monteret)
Nogle motorer er udstyret med en sensor for lav oliestand. Hvis oliestanden er lav,
aktiverer sensoren enten et advarselslys eller standser motoren. Stands motoren, og
følg disse trin, før du genstarter motoren.
Kontrollér, at motoren står plant.
kontroller derefter oliestanden. Se afsnittet Kontrollér oliestand .
Hvis oliestanden er lav, så tilføj den korrekte mængde olie. Start motoren, og sørg
for, at advarselslyset (hvis monteret) ikke er aktiveret.
Hvis oliestanden ikke er lav, må du ikke starte motoren. Kontakt en autoriseret
forhandler fra Briggs & Stratton for at få rettet olieproblemet.
Anbefalet brændstof
Brændstoffet skal overholde følgende krav:
Ren, frisk blyfri benzin.
Mindst 87 oktan/87 AKI (91 RON). Skal kunne anvendes i højder; se nedenfor.
Benzin med op til 10 % ethanol (gasohol) er acceptabelt.
BEMÆRK Der må ikke bruges benzin, der ikke er godkendt, som f.eks. E15 og
E85. Der må ikke blandes olie i benzin, og der må ikke foretages ændringer på
motoren for at køre med alternative brændstoffer. Brug af brændstoffer, der ikke er
godkendt, beskadiger motorens dele og bevirker, at garantien bortfalder.
For at beskytte brændstofsystemet mod dannelse af gummi, kan brændstoffer
tilsættes en stabilisator. SeOpbevaring.Brændstoffer varierer. Hvis du oplever
start- eller driftsproblemer, så skift brændstofleverandør eller -mærke. Motoren er
godkendt til at køre på benzin. Emissionskontrolsystemet for motorer med karburator
er EM (motormodifikationer). Emissionskontrolsystemet for motorer med elektronisk
brændstofindsprøjtning er ECM (motorstyringsmodul), MPI (flerportsinjektion) og hvis
udrustet dermed en O2S (iltsensor).
Højder
Ved højder over 1.524 m (5.000 fod) er en minimum 85 oktan/85 AKI (89 RON) benzin
acceptabel.
Not for
Reproduction
19
Til karburatormotorer kræves justering ved anvendelse i store højder for at opretholde
driften. Drift uden disse justeringer vil medføre en nedgang i ydelse, en stigning i
brændstofforbrug og øget emissioner. Besøg en autoriseret forhandler Briggs & Stratton
for at få oplysninger om højde tilpasning. Drift af en motor, der er justeret til store højder,
kan ikke anbefales i højder under 762 m (2.500 fod).
For motorer med elektronisk brændstofindsprøjtning (EFI), er det ikke nødvendigt at
udføre justering ved anvendelse i store højder.
Påfyld brændstof

Stop motoren
ADVARSEL
Benzin og benzindampe er yderst brandfarlige og eksplosive.
Brand eller eksplosion kan medføre alvorlige forbrændinger eller døden.
Brug ikke chokeren, hvis monteret, til at stoppe motoren.
1. Stopkontakt, hvis monteret: Drej stopkontakten (F, figur 7, 8) til stillingen FRA.
Stopkontakt, hvis monteret Indstil gasregulatoren, hvis monteret, til stillingen
LANGSOM, og drej tændingskontakten (D, figur 7, 8) til stillingen FRA. Tag nøglen
ud og opbevar den på et sikkert sted uden for børns rækkevidde.
2. Efter at motoren er standset, drej brændstofhanen (A, figur 7), hvis monteret, til
positionen LUKKET.
Vedligeholdelse
BEMÆRK Hvis græsslåmaskinen hældes under vedligeholdelse, skal brændstoffet
udtømmes og tændrørssiden skal vende op. Hvis brændstoftanken ikke er tom og
hvis motoren bliver hældet i en anden retning, kan det være svært at starte motoren
pga. olie eller brændstof forurener luftfilteret og/eller tændrøret.
ADVARSEL
Når der udføres vedligeholdelse, der kræver, at enheden vippes, skal
brændstoftanken være tom, da brændstoffet ellers kan løbe ud og resultere i brand
eller eksplosion.
Vi anbefaler, at du kontakter en autoriseret serviceforhandler fra Briggs & Stratton
vedrørende al vedligeholdelse og service af motoren og motordele.
BEMÆRK Alle dele i denne motor skal være korrekt placeret for at give korrekt
funktion.
ADVARSEL
Gnister, som frembringes ved et uheld, kan medføre brand eller stød.
Uplanlagt start kan resultere i indvikling, traumatisk amputation eller
lemlæstelse.
Brandfare
Inden påbegyndelse af justeringer eller reparationer:
Fjern tændrørskablet og hold det på behørig afstand af tændrøret.
Tag minuskablet af batteriet, hvis motoren er udstyret med el-starter.
Brug passende redskaber.
FORETAG ALDRIG ændring af regulatorfjederen, forbindelser eller andre dele for
at øge motorens omdrejningstal.
Reservedelene skal have samme udformning og de skal placeres på præcist
samme måde som de originale dele. Andre reservedele vil ikke give den samme
ydelsesgrad, kan ødelægge maskinen og resultere i personskade.
Slå aldrig på svinghjulet med en hammer eller en hård genstand, da dette kan få
svinghjulet til at splintres under drift.
Under test af gnister:
Brug en godkend tændrørstester.
Test ikke for gnist med tændrøret fjernet.
Udførelse af udledningskontrol
Vedligeholdelse, udskiftning eller reparation af udledningskontrolenheder og
systemer kan udføres af et ikke autoriseret værksted eller af en enkeltperson. For
at få udført udledningskontrolservice "uden beregning" skal arbejdet imidlertid udføres af
en autoriseret forhandler. Se erklæringer om udledningskontrol.
