  • Store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters or other appliances that havepilot lights or other ignition sources because they can ignite fuel vapors. Fuel System See Figure:13Store the engine level (normal operating position). Fill fuel tank (A, Figure13) 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. Eachtime you fill the container with fuel, addfuel stabilizerto the fuel as specified by themanufacturer’s instructions. This keeps fuel fresh and decreases fuel-related problemsor contamination in the fuel system.It is not necessary to drain fuel from the engine whenfuel stabilizeris added asinstructed. Before storage, turn the engine ON for 2 minutes to move the fuel andstabilizer through the fuel system.If gasoline in the engine has not been treated with a fuel stabilizer, it must be drainedinto an approved container. Run the engine until it stops from lack of fuel. The use of afuel stabilizer in the storage container is recommended to maintain freshness. Engine Oil While the engine is still warm, change the engine oil. See the Change Engine Oil section.

Thegross power curves can be viewed at www.BRIGGSandSTRATTON.COM. Net powervalues are taken with exhaust and air cleaner installed whereas gross power valuesare collected without these attachments. Actual gross engine power will be higher thannet engine power and is affected by, among other things, ambient operating conditionsand engine-to-engine variability. Given the wide array of products on which enginesare placed, the gasoline engine may not develop the rated gross power when used in agiven piece of power equipment. This difference is due to a variety of factors including,but not limited to, the variety of engine components (air cleaner, exhaust, charging,cooling, carburetor, fuel pump, etc.), application limitations, ambient operating conditions(temperature, humidity, altitude), and engine-to-engine variability. Due to manufacturingand capacity limitations, Briggs & Stratton may substitute an engine of higher ratedpower for this engine.

Look For Relevant Emissions Durability Period and Air Index Information On Your Small Off-Road Engine Emissions Label Engines that are certified to meet the California Air Resources Board (CARB) small off- road Emissions Standard must display information regarding the Emissions Durability Period and the Air Index. Briggs & Stratton makes this information available to the consumer on our emissions labels. The engine emissions label will indicate certification information. TheEmissions Durability Perioddescribes the number of hours of actual running time for which the engine is certified to be emissions compliant, assuming proper maintenance in accordance with the Operator’s Manual. The following categories are used: Moderate: Engines at or less than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for 50 hours of actual engine running time. Engines greater than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for 125 hours of actual engine running time. Intermediate: Engines at or less than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for 125 hours of actual engine running time. Engines greater than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for 250 hours of actual engine running time. Extended: Engines at or less than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for 300 hours of actual engine running time. Engines greater than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for 500 hours of actual engine running time. For example, a typical walk-behind lawn mower is used 20 to 25 hours per year. Therefore, theEmissions Durability Periodof an engine with anintermediaterating would equate to 10 to 12 years. Briggs & Stratton engines are certified to meet the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Phase 2 or Phase 3 emissions standards. The Emissions Compliance Period referred to on the Emissions Compliance label indicates the number of operating hours for which the engine has been shown to meet Federal emissions requirements. For engines at or less than 80 cc displacement: Category C = 50 hours, Category B = 125 hours, Category A = 300 hours For engines greater than 80 cc displacement and less than 225 cc displacement: Category C = 125 hours, Category B = 250 hours, Category A = 500 hours For engines of 225 cc or more displacement: Category C = 250 hours, Category B = 500 hours, Category A = 1000 hours 80084158_A Briggs & Stratton Emissions Warranty California, U.S. EPA, and Briggs & Stratton Corporation Emissions Control Warranty - Your Warranty Rights and Obligations For Briggs & Stratton Engine Models with "B" or "G" Trim Designation (Model- Type-Trim Representation xxxxxx xxxx Bx or xxxxxx xxxx Gx) The California Air Resources Board, U.S. EPA, and Briggs & Stratton (B&S) are pleased to explain the exhaust emissions (“emissions”) control system warranty on your 2019-2021 engine.
