WARNING
WARNING
MUFFLER
Replacement parts for the muffler
WARNING
must be the same and installed in the
same position as the original parts,
otherwise fire can occur.
If muffler is equipped with spark arrester screen, remove screen
for inspection. Replace screen if damaged or plugged.
SPARK PLUG
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 plug, use same type
for replacement.
If you perform any maintenance on the engine, first disconnect the spark plug wire
from the spark plug, 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.
• 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.
