• Do not choke the carburetor to stop engine.
• Never start or run the engine with the air cleaner assembly (if equipped) or the air
filter (if equipped) removed.
When Changing Oil

leak out and result in a fire or explosion.
When Tipping Unit for Maintenance
• When performing maintenance that requires the unit to be tipped, the fuel tank, if
mounted on the engine, must be empty or fuel can leak out and result in a fire or
explosion.
When Transporting Equipment
• Transport with fuel tank EMPTY or with fuel shut-off valve in the CLOSED
position.
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.
WARNING
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.
WARNING
POISONOUS GAS HAZARD. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a
poisonous gas that could kill you in minutes. You CANNOT see it, smell it, or
taste it. Even if you do not smell exhaust fumes, you could still be exposed
to carbon monoxide gas. If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using
this product, get to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You may have carbon
monoxide poisoning.
• Operate this product ONLY outside far away from windows, doors and vents to
reduce the risk of carbon monoxide gas from accumulating and potentially being
drawn towards occupied spaces.
• Install battery-operated carbon monoxide alarms or plug-in carbon monoxide
alarms with battery back-up according to the manufacturer's instructions. Smoke
alarms cannot detect carbon monoxide gas.
• DO NOT run this product inside homes, garages, basements, crawlspaces,
sheds, or other partially-enclosed spaces even if using fans or opening doors and
windows for ventilation. Carbon monoxide can quickly build up in these spaces
and can linger for hours, even after this product has shut off.
• ALWAYS place this product downwind and point the engine exhaust away from
occupied spaces.
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
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.
6
• Remove accumulated debris from muffler area and cylinder area.
• It is a violation of California Public Resource Code, Section 4442, to use or
operate the engine on any forest-covered, brush-covered, or grass-covered land
unless the exhaust system is equipped with a spark arrester, as defined in Section
4442, maintained in effective working order. Other states or federal jurisdictions
may have similar laws. Contact the original equipment manufacturer, retailer, or
dealer to obtain a spark arrester designed for the exhaust system installed on this
engine.
WARNING
Unintentional sparking can result in fire or electric shock.
Unintentional start-up can result in entanglement, traumatic amputation, or
laceration.
Fire hazard
Before performing adjustments or repairs:
• Disconnect the spark plug wire and keep it away from the spark plug.
• Models with portable battery pack: Remove battery pack from engine battery
tray. Battery pack may represent equipment key in some instances.
• Use only correct tools.
• Do not tamper with governor spring, links or other parts to increase engine speed.
• Replacement parts must be of the same design and installed in the same position
as the original parts. Other parts may not perform as well, may damage the unit,
and may result in injury.
• Do not strike the flywheel with a hammer or hard object because the flywheel may
later shatter during operation.
When testing for spark:
• Use approved spark plug tester.
• Do not check for spark with spark plug removed.
WARNING
Improper use of the battery and charger can result in an electrical shock or
fire.
When Operating
• Keep the battery charger dry. Avoid exposing the battery pack to rain or wet
conditions.
• To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not allow water to flow into AC plug.
• Do not short circuit; never place any object into the battery contacts.
When Charging The Battery Pack
• Charge the Briggs and Stratton battery pack only with the Briggs and Stratton
battery charger.
• Do not use the Briggs and Stratton battery charger to charge any other types of
batteries.
• Keep the battery charger dry. Avoid exposing the battery pack to rain or wet
conditions.
• To reduce risk of damage to the electric plug and cord, pull by the plug rather than
the cord when disconnecting the charger.
• Do not operate the charger with a damaged plug or cord. The supply cord cannot
be replaced. If the cord is damaged, the charger should be replaced immediately.
• Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or
otherwise damaged in any way. If the charger is damaged it must be replaced.
The charger is not serviceable.
• Do not disassemble or attempt to service the charger.
• To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug the charger from outlet before cleaning.
• Do not short circuit; never place any object into the battery contacts.
• The charger is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the
appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to make sure that they do not play with the
charger.
Extension Cord
• An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of
improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If an
extension cord must be used, make sure:
1. That the pins on the plug of the extension cord are the same number, size,
and shape as those of the plug on the charger;
2. That the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition;
