FueU Recommendations

We recommend the use of Bdggs & Stratton Warranty
Certified oils for best performance. Other high-qualky detergent oils are acceptable if classified for service SF, SG,
SH, SJ or higher. Do not use special additives.
Outdoor temperatures determine the proper oil viscosity
for the engine. Use the chart to select the best viscosity
for the outdoor temperature range expected.

Fuem must meet these requirements:
o Clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline
o A minimum of 87 octane!87 AKI (91 RON). High altitude use, see below.
o Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol (gasohol) or up to
15% MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether) is acceptable.

°F

CAUTmON: Do not use unapproved gasolines, such as
E85. Do not mix oil in gasoline or modify the engine to run
on alternate fuels. This will damage the engine components and void the engine warranty°
To protect the fuel system from gum formation, mix a
fuel stabilizer into the fuel. See Storage. AHfuel is not the
same. If starting or performance problems occur, change
the fuel providers or change brands. This engine is certified to operate on gasoline. The emissions control system
for the engine is EM (Engine Modifications).

High AUtitude
* Below 400F (40 C) the use of SAE 30 wi result in hard
starting.

At altitudes over 5,000 feet (1524 meters), a minimum
85 octane/85 AKI (89 RON) gasoBine is acceptable. To
remain emissions compliant, high altitude adjustment is
required. Operation without this adjustment will cause decreased performance, increased fuel consumption, and
increased emissions. See a Craftsman Service Dealer for

** Above 800 F (270C) the use of 10W30may cause

Before Storage

After Storage

Before storing the unit perform the following steps:
1. -Palmthe mower blade OFF, move the transmission
shift lever to Neutral (N), set the parking brake, and
remove the key from the ignition switch.
2. Check all fluid levels. Check all maintenance items.

Before starting the unit after it has been stored:
1. Check all fluid levels. Check aH maintenance items.
2. Fill with FRESH fuel.
3. After starting, allow the engine to warm before
operating.

3. Remove battery and store in a cool place. Recharge
about once a month. If the battery is left in the unit,
disconnect the negative cable.

Protect

FueU 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 Bdggs & Stratton FRESH START® fuel stabilizer, available as a liquid additive or a 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 throug bout
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 Power Rating Information: The gross power rating for individual gas engine models is labeled
in accordance with SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) code J 1940 (Small Engine Power & Torque
Rating Procedure), and rating performance has been obtained and corrected in accordance with SAE
J 1995 (Revision 2002-05). Torque values are derived at 3060 RPM; horsepower values are derived at 3600
RPM. Actual gross engine power wifl be lower and is affected by, among other things, ambient operating
conditions and engine-to-engine variabilky. Given both the wide array of products on which engines are
placed and the variety of environmental issues applicable to operating the equipment, the gas engine
will not develop the rated gross power when used in a given piece of power equipment (actual "on-site"
or net power). This difference is due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to, accessories (air
cleaner, exhaust, charging, cooling, carburetor, fuel pump, etc.), application limitations, ambient operating
conditions (temperature, humidity, altitude), and engine-to-engine variability. Due to manufacturing and
capacity limitations, Bdggs & Stratton may substitute an engine of higher rated power for this Series engine.

lnformaci6n
de clasifieaei6n
de potencia
del motor La clasificaci6n
de potencia bruta para
el modelo de motor de gasolina individual esta etiquetada de acuerdo con el c6digo J1940
(Small Engine Power & Torque Rating Procedure) de la SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers),
y la clasificaci6n de rendimiento ha sido obtenida y corregida de conformidad con SAE J1995
(Revisi6n 2002-05) Los valores de pares motor hart sido obtenidos a 3060 RPM; los valores
de caballos de fuerza han sido obtenidos a 3600 RPM. La potencia bruta real del motor
resultara disminuida y se vera afectada por, entre otros elementos, las condiciones
ambientales
de funcionamiento
y variabilidad entre motores. Dado el amplio conjunto de productos en
que son colocados los motores y la variedad de cuestiones ambientales pertinentes para el
funcionamiento
del equipo, el motor de gasolina no desarrollara la potencia nominal bruta
cuando sea utilizado en un componente
dado de equipamiento
de motor (caballos de fuerza
efectivos "in situ" o netos). Estas diferencias se deben a una amplia variedad de factores,
incluidos entre otros, accesorios (limpiadores de aire, tubos de escape, carga, refrigeraci6n,
carburador, bomba de combustible),
Iimitaciones de aplicaci6n, condiciones ambientales de
funcionamiento
(temperatura,
humedad, altitud), y la variabilidad entre motores. A causa de las
Iimitaciones de fabricaci6n y de capacidad, Briggs & Stratton podra sustituir una mayor potencia
clasificada para este motor de serie.
