WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
When Starting Engine
• Ensure that spark plug, muffler, fuel cap and air cleaner (if equipped) are in place
and secured.
• Do not crank engine with spark plug removed.
• If engine floods, set choke (if equipped) to OPEN / RUN position, move throttle (if
equipped) to FAST position and crank until engine starts.
WARNING
Improper use of battery and charger can result in an electrical shock or fire.
When Operating
• Keep battery charger dry. Avoid exposing battery pack to rain or wet conditions.
• To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not allow water to flow into AC plug.
• Do not short circuit; never place any object into the battery contacts.
WARNING
POISONOUS GAS HAZARD. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a
poisonous gas that could kill you in minutes. You CANNOT see it, smell it, or
taste it. Even if you do not smell exhaust fumes, you could still be exposed to
carbon monoxide gas. If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using this
product, shut it off and get to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You may
have carbon monoxide poisoning.

• Operate this product ONLY outside far away from windows, doors and vents to
reduce the risk of carbon monoxide gas from accumulating and potentially being
drawn towards occupied spaces.
• Install battery-operated carbon monoxide alarms or plug-in carbon monoxide
alarms with battery back-up according to the manufacturer's instructions. Smoke
alarms cannot detect carbon monoxide gas.
• DO NOT run this product inside homes, garages, basements, crawlspaces,
sheds, or other partially-enclosed spaces even if using fans or opening doors and
windows for ventilation. Carbon monoxide can quickly build up in these spaces
and can linger for hours, even after this product has shut off.
• ALWAYS place this product downwind and point the engine exhaust away from
occupied spaces.
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.

operation of remote controls.
1. Check the engine oil. See the Check Oil Level section.
2. Check the battery tray on top of the engine for debris and if dirty clean with a brush
or cloth. Mount the battery pack (B, Figure 11) in the engine battery tray on top
of the engine. Make sure battery pack is securely installed. Battery pack may
represent equipment key in some instances.
Note: To wake up a new battery, a First Time quick charge of approximately ten (10)
seconds is required. See the When To Charge Battery Pack section.
3. Make sure equipment drive controls, if equipped, are disengaged.
4. Move the fuel-shutoff valve (D, Figure 12), if equipped, to the open position.
5. Move the throttle control (A, Figure 12), if equipped, to the fast position. Operate
the engine in the fast position.
6. Push the stop switch (F, Figure 12), if equipped, to the on position.
7. Models with electric start switch: Hold the engine stop lever (C, Figure 13), if

lever (C, Figure 13) against the handle. Engine will automatically start. See the
equipment manual for operation of the engine stop lever.
NOTICE To extend the life of the starter, use short starting cycles (five seconds
maximum). Wait one minute between starting cycles.
If the engine will not crank and the battery pack display lights are flashing, then the
battery pack temperature is too hot or current draw is too high. All four battery display
lights (H, Figure 14) will flash a warning for 10 seconds. The battery pack does not have
a fuse, but will automatically reset after 10 seconds. If battery pack temperature is too
hot (over 140 F, 60 C), remove the battery and allow it to cool. To avoid excess current
draw on lawnmowers, keep the mower housing clean of grass build-up and debris.
Note: If the engine does not start after repeated attempts, contact a local dealer or go to
BRIGGSandSTRATTON.com or call 1-800-233-3723 (in USA).
