Emissions Control

Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emissions control
devices and systems must be serviced by any non-road
engine repair establishment or individual. However, to obtain
"no charge" emissions control service, the work must be
serviced by a factory authorized dealer.

Changing the Engine Oil

Discard used oil correctly. Do not discard with household
waste. Check with your local authorities, service center, or
dealer for safe disposal or recycling facilities.
®
Use Briggs & Stratton Synthetic 5W-30 Warranty Certified
oil for best performance. Other high-quality detergent oils are
acceptable if classified for service SF, SG, SH, SJ or higher.
Do not use any additives.
