Inspect Muffler And Spark Arrester - Figure 16
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.
!
Install and maintain in working order a spark arrester before using equipment on
!
forest-covered, grass-covered, brush-covered unimproved land. The state of
California requires this (Section 4442 of the California Public Resources Code).
Other states may have similar laws. Federal laws apply on federal land.
Inspect the muffler (A, Figure 16) for cracks, corrosion, or other damage. Remove the
muffler deflector (B), if equipped, and inspect for damage or carbon blockage. If
replacement parts are required, make sure to use only original equipment replacement
parts.
WARNING:
Replacement parts must be the same and installed in the same
position as the original parts or fire could result.
Air Filter
This engine is not equipped with an air filter. DO NOT use this engine for anything
other than snow removal.
How To Change The Oil - Figure 2
CAUTION: Used oil is a hazardous waste product and must be disposed of properly. Do
not discard with household waste. Check with your local authorities, service center, or
dealer for safe disposal/recycling facilities.
Remove Oil
1. With engine off but still warm, disconnect the spark plug wire (A) and keep it away
from the spark plug (Figure 17).
Note: To access the spark plug wire, you must first remove the snow hood from the
engine. See How To Access The Spark Plug.

Storage
WARNING
Gasoline and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
When Storing Gasoline 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 gasoline vapors.
Fuel System
Fuel can become stale when stored over 30 days. Stale fuel causes acid and gum
deposits to form in the fuel system or on essential carburetor parts. To keep fuel fresh,
use Briggs & Stratton FRESH START
drip concentrate cartridge.
There is no need to drain gasoline from the engine if a fuel stabilizer is added according
to instructions. Run the engine for 2 minutes to circulate the stabilizer throughout the fuel
system. The engine and fuel can then be stored up to 24 months.
If gasoline in the engine has not been treated with a fuel stabilizer, it must be drained into
an approved container. Run the engine until it stops from lack of fuel. The use of a fuel
stabilizer in the storage container is recommended to maintain freshness.
Engine Oil
While the engine is still warm, change the engine oil.
