NOTICE

1.With engine OFF but still warm, remove oil drain plug and drain oil into appropriate receptacle and remove the oil filter.

2.Before installing new filter, lightly oil filter gasket

with fresh, clean oil.

3.Screw filter on by hand until gasket contacts oil filter adapter. Tighten 1/2 to 3/4 turn more.

4.First add 1 liter (1 quart) of any of the specified oil qualities.

5.Start and run engine for 30 seconds.

6.Stop engine. Re-check oil level – Top off as necessary

– typically 0.3 - 0.5 liter (12 - 16 oz).

Oil Pressure

-If the oil pressure drops below 0.1-0.2 kg/cm (1-4 psi), an oil pressure switch will stop the engine.

-If oil level is below the ADD mark on dipstick, add oil to bring level to FULL mark. Try to start the engine.

-If this does not correct the problem contact an authorized BRIGGS & STRATTON service dealer.

AIR FILTER

Your engine will not run properly using a dirty air filter. Inspect and service the air cleaner at each oil change - every 50 hours.

MUFFLER

Inspect and replace corroded muffler and spark arrester (if equipped) as it could create a fire hazard and/or damage. Also - inspect the spark arrester screen for carbon deposits. A partially plugged screen will cause loss of power. It is recom- mended to inspect the screen at each oil change.

IN-LINE FUEL FILTER

The fuel filter should be replaced once each season. If fuel filter becomes clogged, obstructing fuel flow to carburetor, re- placement is required. We recommend to replace the fuel filter every 250 hours
