Engine Power Rating Information

The gross power rating for individual gas engine models is labeled in accordance with

SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) code J1940 (Small Engine Power & Torque

Rating Procedure), and rating performance has been obtained and corrected in

accordance with SAE J1995 (Revision 2002-05). Torque values are derived at 3060

RPM; horsepower values are derived at 3600 RPM. Actual gross engine power will be

lower and is affected by, among other things, ambient operating conditions and

engine-to-engine variability. Given both the wide array of products on which engines are

placed and the variety of environmental issues applicable to operating the equipment,

the gas engine will not develop the rated gross power when used in a given piece of

power equipment (actual “on-site” or net power). This difference is due to a variety of

factors including, but not limited to, accessories (air cleaner, exhaust, charging, cooling,

carburetor, fuel pump, etc.), application limitations, ambient operating conditions

(temperature, humidity, altitude), and engine-to-engine variability. Due to manufacturing

and capacity limitations, Briggs & Stratton may substitute an engine of higher rated

power for this Series engine.

NOTICE: This engine was shipped from Briggs & Stratton without oil. Before you start

the engine, make sure you add oil according to the instructions in this manual. If you

start the engine without oil, it will be damaged beyond repair and will not be covered

under warranty.

WARNING

Gasoline and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive.

Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.

When Adding Fuel

•

Turn engine off and let engine cool at least 2 minutes before removing the fuel

cap.
