Fuel Recommendations
Fuel must meet these requirements:
Clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline.
A minimum of 87 octane/87 AKI (91 RON).
High altitude use, see below.
Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol (gasohol) or up to
15% MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether) is acceptable.
NOTICE: Do not use unapproved gasoline, such as E85.
Do not mix oil in gasoline or modify the engine to run on
alternate fuels. This will damage the engine components
and void the engine warranty.
To protect the fuel system from gum formation, mix a fuel
stabilizer into the fuel. All fuel is not the same. If starting
or performance problems occur, change fuel providers
or change brands. This engine is certified to operate on
gasoline. The emissions control system for this engine is
EM (Engine Modifications).
High Altitude
At altitudes over 5,000 feet (1524 meters), a minimum
85 octane/85 AKI (89 RON) gasoline is acceptable. To
remain emissions compliant, high altitude adjustment is
required. Operation without this adjustment will cause
decreased performance, increased fuel consumption, and
increased emissions. See a Briggs & Stratton Authorized
Dealer for high altitude adjustment information.

WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable
and explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or
death.
When Storing Fuel or Equipment with Fuel in Tank
Store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters or other
appliances that have pilot lights or ignition sources because
they can ignite fuel vapors.
Fuel System
Fuel can become stale when stored over 30 days. Stale fuel
causes acid and gum deposits to form in the fuel system
or on essential carburetor parts. To keep fuel fresh, use
Briggs & Stratton FRESH START® fuel stabilizer, available
as a liquid additive or a drip concentrate cartridge.
There is no need to drain the gasoline from the engine
if a fuel stabilizer is added according to the instructions.
Run the engine for 2 minutes to circulate the stabilizer
throughout the fuel system. The engine and fuel can be
stored up to 24 months.
If gasoline in the engine has not been treated with a fuel
stabilizer, it must be drained into an approved container.
Run the engine until it stops from lack of fuel. The use of a
fuel stabilizer in the storage container is recommended to
maintain freshness.
Engine Oil
While the engine is still warm, change the engine oil.
Snowthrower
1. Thoroughly clean the snowthrower.
2. Lubricate all lubrication points (see authorized dealer).
3. Make sure all nuts, bolts, and screws are securely
fastened. Inspect all visible moving parts for damage,
breakage, and wear. Replace if necessary.
4. Touch up all rusted or chipped paint surfaces.
5. Cover the bare metal parts of the auger and impeller
with rust preventative.
6. If possible, store your snowthrower indoors and cover it
to protect from dust and dirt.
7. On models with folding handles, loosen the knobs that
secure the upper handle. Rotate the upper handle
forward.
8. If stored outdoors, place the snowthrower on blocks and
ensure the entire machine is off the ground. Cover the
snowthrower with a heavy tarpaulin.
