WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are flammable and explosive. Fire or explosion could result in
burns or death.
When you start the engine
•
Make sure that the spark plug, muffler, fuel cap and air cleaner (if equipped) are
correctly installed.
•
Do not crank the engine with the spark plug removed.
•
If the engine is flooded, set the choke (if equipped) to the OPEN or RUN
position. Move the throttle (if equipped) to the FAST position and crank until the
engine starts.
•
If there is natural or LP gas leakage in the area, do not start the engine.
•
Because vapors are flammable, do not use pressurized starter fluids.
WARNING
Rotating parts can entangle hands, feet, hair, clothing, or accessories and result
in traumatic amputation or laceration.
•
Operate equipment with the guards correctly installed.
•
Keep hands and feet away from rotating parts.
•
Remove jewelry and make sure that long hair is away from all rotating parts.
•
Do not wear loose clothes or items that could become caught.
WARNING
Fast retraction of the starter cord (kickback) will pull your hand and arm to the
engine faster than you can let go. Broken bones, fractures, bruises or sprains
could result.
•
To prevent kickback when you start the engine, pull the starter cord slowly until
resistance is felt and then pull quickly.
•
Before you start the engine, disconnect or remove all external equipment and
engine loads.
•
Make sure that direct-coupled equipment components, such as, but not limited
to, blades, impellers, pulleys, and sprockets, are correctly attached.
Types of Start Systems
Before you start the engine, you must know the type of start system on your engine.
Your engine has one of these types of systems.
•
Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) System: An EFI system does not have a
choke or a primer.
•
Electronic Fuel Management System: An Electronic Fuel Management
system has an Electronic Control Unit that monitors engine and temperature
conditions. It does not have a manual choke or a primer.
•
Choke System: This type of system has a choke to be used in cool
temperatures. Some models have a separate choke control, but some have a
combination choke and throttle choke. This type does not have a primer.
NOTE: Your equipment could have remote controls. Refer to the equipment manual for
the location and operation of remote controls.
Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) System
1.
Check the engine oil. See the Check the Oil Level section.
2.
Make sure that the equipment drive controls, if installed, are disengaged.
3.
Move the fuel shut-off (A, Figure 8), if installed, to the OPEN position.
4.
Move the throttle control (B, Figure 8), if installed, to the FAST position. Operate the
engine in the FAST position.
5.
Turn the electric start switch (D, Figure 8) if installed, to the ON or START position.
If the engine does not start after 3 or 4 times, contact your local dealer or go to
vanguardpower.com or call 1-800-999-9333.
Electronic Fuel Management System
1.
Check the engine oil. See the Check Oil Level section.
2.
Make sure that the equipment drive controls, if installed, are disengaged.
3.
Move the fuel shut-off (A, Figure 9), if installed, to the OPEN position.
4.
Move the throttle control (B, Figure 9), if installed, to the FAST position. Operate the
engine in the FAST position
5.
Turn the electric start switch (D, Figure 9), if installed, to the ON or START position
NOTE: If the engine will not start, contact your local dealer or go to
vanguardpower.com or call 1-800-999-9333 (in USA).

Choke System
1.
Check the engine oil. See the Check Oil Level section.
2.
Make sure that the equipment drive controls, if installed, are disengaged.
3.
Move the fuel shut-off (A, Figure 10), if installed, to the OPEN position.
4.
Move the throttle control (B, Figure 10), if installed, to the FAST position. Operate
the engine in the FAST position.
5.
Move the choke control (C, Figure 10), or the combination choke and throttle (B,C),
if installed, to the CLOSED position.
NOTE: To start the engine with a dry fuel system, additional cranking time in the choke
position will be required. This will give the fuel pump time to prime the fuel system.
6.
Turn the key switch (D, Figure 10), if installed, to the ON or START position.
7.
If the engine starts but will not continue to operate, move the choke control (C,
Figure 10) to the OPEN position to start the engine.
8.
As the engine warms, move the choke control (C, Figure 10) to the OPEN position.
NOTE: If the engine will not start, contact your local dealer or go to
vanguardpower.com or call 1-800-999-9333 (in USA).
Stop the Engine
WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are flammable and explosive. Fire or explosion could result in
burns or death.
•
Do not choke the carburetor (if equipped) to stop the engine.
1.
With the throttle control in the SLOW position, turn the electric start switch (D,
Figure 11) if installed, to the OFF position.
2.
Remove the key and keep it in a safe location.
3.
After the engine stops, move the fuel shut-off (A, Figure 11), if installed, to the
CLOSED position.
Maintenance
Maintenance Information
WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are flammable and explosive. Fire or explosion could result in
burns or death.
During maintenance if it is necessary to tilt the unit, make sure that the fuel tank, if
mounted on the engine, is empty and that the spark plug side is up. If the fuel tank is not
empty, leakage can occur and could result in a fire or an explosion. If the engine is tilted
in a different direction, it will not easily start because of oil or fuel contamination of the air
filter or the spark plug.
WARNING
Accidental engine spark can cause an electric shock, fire or explosion and could
result in entanglement, traumatic amputation or laceration.
Before you make adjustments or repairs:
•
Disconnect all spark plug wires and keep them away from the spark plugs.
•
Disconnect the battery wire from the negative battery terminal (only engines with
electric start).
•
Use only the correct tools.
When you check for spark:
•
Use an approved spark plug tester.
•
Do not check for spark with the spark plug removed.
WARNING
All the components used to assemble this engine must stay in the initial position
for correct operation. Damage or injury can occur if you use incorrect parts or you
do not replace all parts on the engine.
•
Replacement parts must be of the same design and installed in the same
position as initial parts.
•
If installed, do not change the governor spring, links, or other parts to increase
the engine speed.
See a Briggs & Stratton Authorized Service Dealer for all maintenance and servicing of
the engine and engine parts.
