General Information

This manual contains safety information to make you aware of the hazards and risks
associated with engines and how to avoid them. It also contains instructions for the
proper use and care of the engine. Because Briggs & Stratton Corporation does not
necessarily know what equipment this engine will power, it is important that you read and
understand these instructions and the instructions for the equipment. Save these
original instructions for future reference.
For replacement parts or technical assistance, record below the engine model, type, and
code numbers along with the date of purchase. These numbers are located on your
engine (see the Features and Controls page).

Power Rating
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. 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 gas 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 Series engine.

empty or valve closed, or fuel tank disconnected.
When Storing Fuel Or Equipment With Fuel In Tank
Store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters or other appliances that have
Wear Eye
pilot lights or other ignition sources because they can ignite fuel vapors.
Protection
