EMISSION CONTROL
Maintenance, replacement or repair of the emission control
devices and systems may be performed by any nonroad
engine repair establishment or individual. However, to obtain
no charge repairs under the terms and provisions of the Briggs &
Stratton warranty statement, any service or emission control part
repair or replacement must be performed by a factory authorized
dealer.
WARNING
If you perform any maintenance on the engine, first
disconnect the spark plug wires from the spark
plugs, and disconnect the battery at the negative
terminal (electric starter engines only) to prevent
unintentional sparking. Unintentional sparking can
result in fire or electric shock. Unintentional start-up
can result in entanglement, traumatic amputation or
laceration. Use only correct tools.
WARNING
•
Do not strike the flywheel with a hammer or hard object
because the flywheel may later shatter during operation.
•
Do not tamper with governor spring, links or other parts to
increase engine speed.
SPARK PLUG
Change spark plugs yearly. Use only Briggs & Stratton Spark
Tester (part number 19368) to check for spark.
Note : In some areas, local law
requires using resistor spark plug
to suppress ignition signals. If this
engine was originally equipped
with resistor spark plugs, use
same type for replacement.
