2. Remove the foam element (C).
3. Wash the foam element in liquid detergent and water. Squeeze dry the foam element
in a clean cloth.
4. Saturate the foam element with clean engine oil. To remove the excess engine oil,
squeeze the foam element in a clean cloth.
5. Install the foam element into the air filter base.
6. Close the cover and move the slide lock to the locked position.
High Capacity Air Filter - Figure 13
The air cleaner system uses a pleated filter with an optional pre-cleaner. The pre-cleaner
can be washed and reused.
1. Loosen the fastener (A) that holds the cover (B). Remove the cover. See Figure 13.
2. Remove the pre-cleaner (C) and the filter (D).
3. To loosen debris, gently tap the filter on a hard surface. If the filter is excessively
dirty, replace with a new filter.
4. Wash the pre-cleaner in liquid detergent and water. Then allow it to thoroughly air
dry. Do not oil the pre-cleaner.
5. Assemble the dry pre-cleaner to the filter.
6. Install the filter and pre-cleaner into the base (E). Make sure filter fits securely in the
base.
7. Install air filter cover and secure with fastener. Make sure the fastener is tight.
How To Replace The Fuel Filter - Figure 14
WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat, and other ignition
•
sources.
Check fuel lines, tank, cap, and fittings frequently for cracks or leaks.
•
Replace if necessary.
Before cleaning or replacing the fuel filter, drain the fuel tank or close the fuel
•
shut-off valve.
Replacement parts must be the same and installed in the same position as the
•
original parts.
If fuel spills, wait until it evaporates before starting engine.
•
1. Before replacing the fuel filter (A, Figure 14), if equipped, drain the fuel tank or close
the fuel shut-off valve, if equipped. Otherwise, fuel can leak out and cause a fire or
explosion.
2. Use pliers to squeeze tabs (B) on the clamps (C), then slide the clamps away from
the fuel filter. Twist and pull the fuel lines (D) off of the fuel filter.
3. Check the fuel lines for cracks or leaks. Replace if necessary.
4. Replace the fuel filter with an original equipment replacement filter.
5. Secure the fuel lines with the clamps as shown.
How To Clean The Air Cooling System - Figure 15
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.
•
NOTICE: Do not use water to clean the engine. Water could contaminate the fuel
system. Use a brush or dry cloth to clean the engine.
This is an air cooled engine. Dirt or debris can restrict air flow and cause the engine to
overheat, resulting in poor performance and reduced engine life.
Use a brush or dry cloth to remove debris from the finger guard (A). Keep linkage,
springs and controls (B) clean. Keep area around and behind the muffler (C) free of any
combustible debris (Figure 15).
Storage
WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
When Storing Fuel 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 fuel vapors.
en
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. See the How To Change The Oil
section.
NOTICE: Store the engine level (normal operating position). If the engine is tipped for
storage, the fuel tank must be empty and the spark plug side must be up. If the fuel
tank is not empty and if the engine is tipped in any other direction, it may be difficult to
start due to oil or gasoline contaminating the air filter and/or the spark plug.
