Oil Recommendations

Oil Capacity: See the Specifications section.

NOTICE
Some engines are shipped from Briggs & Stratton with or without oil. Always make sure that the engine has oil. If you start the engine without oil, it will be damaged beyond repair and will not be included under the warranty.

We recommend the use of Briggs & Stratton® Warranty Certified oils for best performance. Other high-quality detergent oils are permitted if classified for service SF, SG, SH, SJ or higher. Do not use special additives.

Outdoor temperatures determine the correct oil viscosity for the engine. Use the chart to select the best viscosity for the outdoor temperature range expected. Engines on most outdoor power equipment operate well with 5W-30 Synthetic oil. For equipment

operated in hot temperatures, Vanguard ®15W-50 Synthetic oil gives the best protection.

A| SAE 30 – Below 40 °F (4 °C) the use of SAE 30 will result in hard starting.
---|---
B| 10W-30 – Above 80 °F (27 °C) the use of 10W-30 may cause increased oil consumption. Check the oil level frequently.
C| 5W-30
D| Synthetic 5W-30
E| Vanguard® Synthetic 15W-50

We recommend that you see any Briggs & Stratton Authorized Dealer for all maintenance and service of the engine and engine parts.

Power Ratings: The gross power rating for individual gasoline engine models is labeled in accordance with SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) code J1940 Small Engine Power & Torque Rating Procedure, and is rated in accordance with SAE J1995. Torque values are derived at 2600 RPM for those engines with “rpm” called out on the label and 3060 RPM for all others; horsepower values are derived at 3600 RPM. The gross power curves can be viewed at www.BRIGGSandSTRATTON.COM. Net power values are taken with exhaust and air cleaner installed whereas gross power values are collected without these attachments. Actual gross engine power will be higher than net engine power and is affected by, among other things, ambient operating conditions and engine-to-engine variability. Given the wide array of products on which engines are placed, the gasoline engine may not develop the rated gross power when used in a given piece of power equipment. This difference is due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to, the variety of engine components (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 engine.

B&S is not liable for warranty coverage of failures of emissions parts caused by the use of add-on or modified parts.

Look For Relevant Emissions Durability Period and Air Index Information On Your Small Off-Road Engine Emissions Label
Engines that are certified to meet the California Air Resources Board (CARB) small offroad Emissions Standard must display information regarding the Emissions
Durability Period and the Air Index. Briggs & Stratton makes this information available to the consumer on our emissions labels. The engine emissions label will indicate
certification information.

The Emissions Durability Period describes the number of hours of actual running time for which the engine is certified to be emissions compliant, assuming proper
maintenance in accordance with the Operator’s Manual. The following categories are used:

Moderate:
Engines at or less than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for 50 hours of actual engine running time. Engines greater than 80 cc displacement are
certified to be emissions compliant for 125 hours of actual engine running time.

Intermediate:
Engines at or less than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for 125 hours of actual engine running time. Engines greater than 80 cc displacement are
certified to be emissions compliant for 250 hours of actual engine running time.

Extended:
Engines at or less than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for
300 hours of actual engine running time. Engines greater than 80 cc displacement are
certified to be emissions compliant for 500 hours of actual engine running time.
For example, a typical walk-behind lawn mower is used 20 to 25 hours per year.
Therefore, the Emissions Durability Period of an engine with an intermediate rating
would equate to 10 to 12 years.
Briggs & Stratton engines are certified to meet the United States Environmental
Protection Agency (USEPA) Phase 2 or Phase 3 emissions standards. The Emissions
Compliance Period referred to on the Emissions Compliance label indicates the
number of operating hours for which the engine has been shown to meet Federal
emissions requirements.

For engines at or less than 80 cc displacement:
Category C = 50 hours, Category B = 125 hours, Category A = 300 hours

For engines greater than 80 cc displacement and less than 225 cc displacement:
Category C = 125 hours, Category B = 250 hours, Category A = 500 hours

For engines of 225 cc or more displacement:
Category C = 250 hours, Category B = 500 hours, Category A = 1000 hours
