It's easy to tune up your lawn mower. If you don't do it
yourself, have a Briggs & Stratton dealer do it for you once a year.
An annual tune-up will extend the life of your mower while cutting
polluting emissions by up to 50 percent.
The Four Easy Steps
Briggs & Stratton engines use one of three types of air filters - foam, paper, and a combination of foam and paper. Go to the type of filter you have to see how to change that filter.
For optimum performance, you should change the oilin your engine at least once per season or every 25 hours of use. Briggs & Stratton Maintenance Kits come with the correct oil for your engine. You can also purchase oil separately through participating dealers and retailers.
Changing
your spark plug is one of the easiest ways to ensure accurate and easy
starting for your engine. This should be done every season. Briggs &
Stratton Plantinum Spark Plugs are pre-gapped, so all you need to do is
remove the old spark plug and replace it with the new one.
Gasoline
that's been standing for over a month can cause difficulty with your
engine when you want to restart it later. Get into the habit of adding
Briggs & Stratton's Fuel Stabilizerto your fuel tank to avoid these problems and you'll be ready to mow any time.
