CARE AND MAINTENANCE

CAUTION

HOT oil may cause burns. Allow engine to cool before draining oil.

CHANGING THE ENGINE OIL:

1. The "snap lock" oil drain valve is

located on the left side of the engine
crankcase.

2. Place a suitable container under the

drain valve. The fitting of a short piece
of hose to the valve will help direct the
oil.

3. Push the valve body in and twist to clear

the detent notch.

4. Pulling the valve body outward will

start the flow of oil.

NOTE: Refer to engine manufacturers

recommendations for frequency of oil
changes.

•Replace filter each time the oil is changed.

•These filters can be obtained from your authorized Briggs & Stratton engine

dealer (P/N 492 932).

•The use of any other oil filter may cause damage to the engine.

PLEASE DISPOSE OF USED OILS AT PROPER COLLECTION CENTERS.
