THE POWER IN POWER EQUIPMENT

Thank you for selecting a Briggs & Stratton engine to power your equipment. Briggs & Stratton is committed to producing a line of engines which will make your life’s chores easier to perform. We have,

at the same time, improved the design of our engines so they are environmentally friendly . Since 1995, we have succeeded in reducing smog-forming exhaust emissions from our engines by 70%. Briggs & Stratton’s ef forts have not stopped there. We are also committed to designing and introducing even cleaner engines in the future, while maintaining our reputation for excellent utility and value.

Briggs & Stratton’s environmental awareness has resulted in the engineering of the “Smart-Fill” gas can, featuring a spill resistant nozzle which opens only when fully inserted into the gas tank, and which shuts off automatically when the tank is full. Because refueling spills can harm the environment, the Smart-Fill container helps preserve a stronger ecosystem by reducing this source of pollution.

We hope you will enjoy your new engine and equipment. We welcome you to our worldwide family of Briggs & Stratton engine users.

Best Wishes Always,

The Employees of Briggs & Stratton Corporation

Look For Relevant Emissions Durability Period and Air Index

Information On Your Engine Emissions Label

Engines that are certified to meet the California Air Resources Board (CARB) Tier 2 Emission Standards must display information regarding the Emissions Durability Period and the Air Index. Briggs & Stratton makes this information available to the consumer on our emission labels.

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 emission compliant for 125 hours of actual engine running time. Intermediate: Engine is certified to be emission compliant for 250 hours of actual engine running time. Extended: Engine is certified to be emission 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. The Air Index is a calculated number describing the relative level of emissions for a specific engine family. The lower the

Air Index, the cleaner the engine. This information is displayed in graphical form on the emissions label.

BEFORE OPERATING ENGINE

• Read entire Operating & Maintenance Instructions AND the instructions for the equipment this engine powers.*

• Failure to follow instructions could result in serious injury or death.

THE OPERATING & MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS CONTAIN SAFETY INFORMATION TO

• Make you aware of hazards associated with engines

• Inform you of the risk of injury associated with those hazards, and

• Tell you how to avoid or reduce the risk of injury.

274264

The safety alert symbol ( ) is used to identify safety

information about hazards that can result in personal injury. A signal word (DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION) is

used with the alert symbol to indicate the likelihood and the potential severity of injury. In addition, a hazard symbol may be used to represent the type of hazard.

DANGER indicates a hazard which, if not

avoided, will result in death or serious injury.

WARNING indicates a hazard which, if not

avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION indicates a hazard which, if not

avoided, might result in minor or moderate injury.

CAUTION, when used without the alert symbol,

indicates a situation that could result in damage to the engine.

HAZARD SYMBOLS AND MEANINGS

WARNING

The engine exhaust from this product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.

* Briggs & Stratton does not necessarily know what equipment this engine will power. For that reason, you should carefully

read and understand the operating instructions for the equipment on which your engine is placed.

SAFETY

WARNING

Gasoline and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive.

Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.

WHEN ADDING FUEL

• Turn engine OFF and let engine cool at least 2 minutes before removing gas cap.

• Fill fuel tank outdoors or in well-ventilated area.

• Do not overfill fuel tank. Fill tank to approximately

1-1/2 inches below top of neck to allow for fuel expansion.

• Keep gasoline away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat, and other ignition sources.

• Check fuel lines, tank, cap, and fittings frequently for cracks or leaks. Replace if necessary.

WHEN STARTING ENGINE

• Make sure spark plug, muffler, fuel cap and air cleaner are in place.

• Do not crank engine with spark plug removed.

• If fuel spills, wait until it evaporates before starting

engine.

• If engine floods, set choke to OPEN/RUN position, place throttle in FAST and crank until engine starts.

WARNING

Unintentional sparking can result in fire or electric shock.

Unintentional start-up can result in entanglement, traumatic amputation, or laceration.

BEFORE PERFORMING ADJUSTMENTS OR REPAIRS

• Disconnect spark plug wire and keep it away from spark plug.

• Disconnect battery at negative terminal (only engines with electric start).

WHEN TESTING FOR SPARK

• Use approved spark plug tester.

• Do not check for spark with spark plug removed.

WARNING

WHEN OPERATING EQUIPMENT

• Do not tip engine or equipment at angle which causes gasoline to spill.

• Do not choke carburetor to stop engine.

WHEN TRANSPORTING EQUIPMENT

• Transport with fuel tank EMPTY or with fuel shut-of f valve OFF.

WHEN STORING GASOLINE OR EQUIPMENT WITH FUEL IN TANK

• Store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters or other appliances that have pilot light or other ignition source because they can ignite gasoline vapors.

Starting engine creates sparking. Sparking can ignite nearby flammable gases. Explosion and fire could result.

• If there is natural or LP gas leakage in area, do not start engine.

• Do not use pressurized starting fluids because vapors are flammable.

SAFETY

WARNING

Engines give off carbon monoxide, an odorless, colorless, poison gas.

Breathing carbon monoxide can cause nausea, fainting or death.

• Start and run engine outdoors.

• Do not start or run engine in enclosed area, even if

doors or windows are open.

WARNING

Running engines produce heat. Engine parts, especially muffler, become extremely hot.

WARNING

Rotating parts can contact or entangle hands, feet, hair, clothing, or accessories.

Traumatic amputation or severe laceration can result.

• Operate equipment with guards in place.

• Keep hands and feet away from rotating parts.

• Tie up long hair and remove jewelry.

• Do not wear loose-fitting clothing, dangling

drawstrings or items that could become caught.

WARNING

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 combustibles from muffler area and cylinder area.

• Install and maintain in working order a spark arrester before using equipment on forest-covered, grass-covered, brush-covered unimproved land. The state of California requires this (Section 4442 of the California Public Resources Code). Other states may have similar laws. Federal laws apply on federal land.

Rapid retraction of starter cord (kickback) will pull h and and arm toward engine faster than you can let go.

Broken bones, fractures, bruises or sprains could result.

• When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is felt, then pull rapidly.

• Remove all external equipment/engine loads before starting engine.

• Direct coupled equipment components such as, but not limited to, blades, impellors, pulleys, sprockets, etc., must be securely attached.
