Change Gear Reduction Oil
See Figure: 18, 19
6:1 Gear Reduction (Figure 18)
If your engine is equipped with a 6:1 gear reduction unit, service as follows:
1. Remove the oil fill plug (A, Figure 18) and the oil level plug (B).
2. Remove the oil drain plug (C, Figure 18) and drain the oil into an appropriate
receptacle.
3. Reinstall and tighten the oil drain plug (C, Figure 18).
4. To refill, slowly pour gear lube (see Specifications section) into the oil fill hole
(D, Figure 18). Continue to pour until the oil runs out of the oil level hole (E).
5. Reinstall and tighten the oil level plug (B, Figure 18).
6. Reinstall and tighten the oil fill plug (A, Figure 18).
Note: The oil fill plug (A, Figure 18) has a vent hole (F) and must be installed on the top
of the gear case cover as shown.
2:1 Gear Reduction (Figure 19)
The 2:1 gear reduction unit (G, Figure 19) does not require an oil change.
Service Fuel System
See Figure: 20, 21
WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
• Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat, and other ignition
sources.
10
• Check fuel lines, tank, cap, and fittings frequently for cracks or leaks. Replace if
necessary.
• Before cleaning or replacing the fuel filter, drain the fuel tank or close the fuel shut-
off valve.
• If fuel spills, wait until it evaporates before starting engine.
• Replacement parts must be the same and installed in the same position as the
original parts.
Fuel Filter, if equipped
1. Before cleaning or replacing the fuel filter (A, Figure 20), drain the fuel tank or
close the fuel shut-off valve. Otherwise, fuel can leak out and cause a fire or
explosion.
2. Use pliers to squeeze tabs (B, Figure 20) on the clamps (C), then slide the clamps
away from the fuel filter (A). Twist and pull the fuel lines (D) off of the fuel filter.
3. Check the fuel lines (D, Figure 20) for cracks or leaks. Replace if necessary.
4. Replace the fuel filter (A, Figure 20) with an original equipment replacement filter.
5. Secure the fuel lines (D, Figure 20) with clamps (C) as shown.
Fuel Strainer, if equipped
1. Remove the fuel cap (A, Figure 21).
2. Remove the fuel strainer (B, Figure 21).
3. If the fuel strainer is dirty, clean or replace it. If you replace the fuel strainer, make
sure to use an original equipment replacement fuel strainer.
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: 22
Store the engine level (normal operating position). Fill fuel tank (A, Figure 22) 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.
