• Reinstall spark plug.
Service Air Cleaner
Your engine will not run properly and may be damaged if
you run it using a dirty air filter element.
Check the air filter every use and clean or replace the
paper air filter element every 50 hours of operation or
every three months, whichever comes first. Clean or
replace more often if operating under dusty or dirty
conditions.
To clean or replace air filter element:
• Loosen the air cleaner cover screws, remove the air
cleaner cover, and remove the element (see item
number 4, exploded view on page 20.
• Wipe clean the inside of the filter housing and cover
thoroughly.
• Wash the element in a solution of household detergent
and warm water, then rinse thoroughly. Or wash in
nonflammable or high flash point solvent. Allow the
element to dry thoroughly.
• Soak the element in clean engine oil and squeeze out the
excess oil. Do Not twist. The engine will smoke during
initial start-up if too much oil is left in the element.
NOTE: If you need to order a new air filter element,
please see your local Briggs & Stratton service dealer.
• Reinstall the air cleaner element and the cover. Hand
tighten the air cleaner cover screws.
Clean Spark Arrester Screen
The engine muffler is equipped with a removable spark
arrester screen. Inspect and clean the screen every
10 hours of operation or every three months, as shown in
Figure 14:
• Loosen the screw on the muffler tail pipe and remove
the spark arrester screen.
• Use a brass or stiff-bristle brush to remove carbon
deposits from the spark arrester surface.
• Inspect the spark arrester for breaks or tears and
replace it if necessary.
NOTE: If you need to order a new spark arrester, please
see your local Briggs & Stratton service dealer.
• Install the clean screen in the reverse order of removal.
NOTE: If you use your generator on any forest-covered,
brush-covered or grass-covered unimproved land, it must
have a spark arrester installed. The spark arrester must be
maintained in good condition by the owner/operator.
STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS
Transporting and Storage
When transporting the generator, turn the engine switch
to “Off” and the fuel valve to “Close”. Keep the generator

the engine cool before transporting or storing the
generator.
Take care to not drop or strike the generator when
transporting. Do Not place heavy objects on the
