Servicing the Exhaust and Cooling Systems
WARNING
During operation, the engine and muffler become hot. If you touch a hot engine,
thermal burns can occur.
Combustible materials, such as leaves, grass and brush, can catch fire.
• Before you touch the engine or muffler, stop the engine and wait two (2)
minutes. Make sure that the engine and muffler are safe to touch.
• Remove debris from the muffler and engine.
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;
reference Federal Regulation 36 CFR Part 261.52. Contact the original equipment
manufacturer, retailer, or dealer to obtain a spark arrester designed for the exhaust
system installed on this engine.
This is an air cooled engine. Dirt or unwanted material can prevent air flow and cause
the engine to become too hot. This results in unsatisfactory performance and decreases
the life of the engine. The cylinder cooling fins can collect unwanted material that cannot
be remove without partial disassembly of the engine. Make sure that a Briggs & Stratton
Authorized Service Dealer examines and cleans the air cooling system. Refer to the
Maintenance Schedule.
1. Make sure that no combustible materials are around and behind the muffler.
2. Use a brush or dry cloth to remove all unwanted material from the blower housing
cover, muffler and cylinder area. DO NOT use water to clean the engine.
3. Make sure that the linkage, springs, and controls are clean.
4. Examine the muffler for cracks, corrosion, or other damage.
5. Remove the deflector or the spark arrester, if installed, and examine for damage or
carbon blockage. Make sure that you clean or install the replacement parts before
you operate the equipment.
6. If Installed, make sure that the oil cooler fins are clean.
Change Engine Oil
WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are flammable and explosive. Fire or explosion could result in
burns or death.
During operation, the engine and muffler become hot. If you touch a hot engine,
thermal burns can occur.
• If you drain the oil from the top oil fill tube, the fuel tank must be empty. If it is not
empty, fuel leakage can occur and cause a fire or an explosion.
• Before you touch the engine or muffler, stop the engine and wait two (2)
minutes. Make sure that the engine and muffler are safe to touch.
