1 IN THE INTEREST OF SAFETY The safety alert symbol ( ) is used to identify safety information about hazards that can result in personal injury. A signal word (DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION) is used with the alert symbol to indicate the likelihood and the potential severity of injury. In addition, a hazard symbol may be used to represent the type of hazard. DANGER indicates a hazard which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
1 WARNING Gasoline and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive. Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death. WHEN ADDING FUEL • Turn engine OFF and let engine cool at least 2 minutes before removing gas cap. • Fill fuel tank outdoors or in well-ventilated area. • Do not overfill fuel tank. Fill tank to approximately 1-1/2 inches below top of neck to allow for fuel expansion. • Keep gasoline away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat, and other ignition sources.
1 WARNING WARNING Engines give off carbon monoxide, an odorless, colorless, poison gas. Breathing carbon monoxide can cause nausea, fainting or death. Rotating parts can contact or entangle hands, feet, hair, clothing, or accessories. Traumatic amputation or severe laceration can result. • Start and run engine outdoors. • Do not start or run engine in enclosed area, even if doors or windows are open. WARNING • Operate equipment with guards in place. • Keep hands and feet away from rotating parts.
1 LUBRICATION Gasoline Engines FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS These engines are certified to operate on unleaded gasoline. Use clean, fresh, regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum of 77 octane. Do not mix oil with gasoline. Fresh fuel prevents gum from forming in fuel system or on essential carburetor parts. Purchase fuel in quantity that can be used within 30 days to assure fuel freshness. We recommend the use of Briggs & Stratton Gasoline Additive.
1 CHANGE OIL after first 5 hours of operation. Thereafter, change oil monthly or every 50 hours of operation. Change oil more often if engine is operated under heavy load or in high ambient air temperatures. During normal operation, partially burned gasoline, small particles of metal from the cylinder walls, pistons, bearings, combustion deposits, and dust particles from the air will gradually contaminate the oil.
1 Fig. 4: Model Series 110000, 120000, 130000 1 1 Fig. 4 CLEAN COOLING SYSTEM Grass particles, chaff or dirt can clog the air cooling system. Continued operation with a clogged coolingsystem can cause severe overheating and possible engine damage. Figures 5, (vertical crankshaft model), and 6, (horizontal crankshaft model) show the blower housing removed and areas to be cleaned (1). This should be a regular maintenance operation, performed yearly or every 100 hours, whichever comes first.

1 CLEANING AIR CLEANER CARTRIDGE OIL-FOAMR ELEMENTS When to Clean CARTRIDGE only, Clean every 25 hours or once a season, whichever comes first. More often in dusty conditions. CARTRIDGE with dry or oiled foam pre-cleaner, pre-cleaner every 25 hours and cartridge every 100 hours. More often in dusty conditions. OIL-FOAM ELEMENT Clean and re-oil Oil-Foam element every 25 hours or at three month intervals under normal conditions.
1 TUNE-UP PROCEDURE A “Tune-Up,” as listed below, would normally be performed on relatively new engines brought in for minor difficulties. Performing these steps will either assure that the engine is functioning properly or will point out necessary repairs. These steps are also covered in the Overhaul Procedure and will normally be performed as a part of the complete overhaul. STEP NO. 1. Remove spark plug lead from spark plug. 2. Remove air cleaner. 3. Check oil level and drain.
1 CHECK-UP Check Ignition Most complaints concerning engine operation can be classified as one or a combination of the following: 1. Will not start 2. Hard starting 3. Kicks back when starting 4. Lack of power 5. Vibration 6. Erratic operation 7. Overheating 8. High oil consumption When the cause of malfunction is not readily apparent, perform a check of the compression, ignition and carburetion systems. This check-up, performed in a systematic manner, can usually be done in a matter of minutes.
1 Check Carburetion CHECK-UP. cont’d Hard Starting, Kickback, or Will Not Start Before making a carburetion check, be sure the fuel tank has an ample supply of fresh, clean gasoline. On gravity feed (Flo-Jet) models, see that the shut-off valve is open and fuel flows freely through the fuel line. On all models, inspect and adjust the mixture needles per specification. Check to see that the choke closes completely. If engine will not start, remove and inspect the spark plug. If plug is wet, look for: 1.

3 Pulsa-Jet Carburetors Model Series 92900, 94900, 110900, 112900, 113900, 114900 Vacu-Jet Carburetors Model Series 92500, 93500, 94500, 95500 1 2 NOTE: Pulsa-Jet and Vacu-Jet carburetors for vertical crankshaft models are combined in this section. Issues specific to individual models or types will be noted in the text and corresponding illustrations. Carburetor Types (Fig. 10) 3 There are three basic types of Pulsa-Jet and Vacu-Jet carburetors used on above series engines.
3 Automatic Choke Operation (Fig. 13) A diaphragm under the carburetor (3) is connected to choke shaft by a link (2), Fig. 13. A calibrated spring under diaphragm holds choke plate (1) closed when engine is not running. When running, vacuum created during intake stroke is routed to the bottom of the diaphragm, through a calibrated passage, opening choke against spring pressure.
3 If engine on a mower with a high-inertia disc type cutter blade becomes hard starting when engine is warm, a leaner carburetor mixture may be required. See following note: NOTE: A heavy, high-inertia disc type cutter blade rotates for a longer period of time, after governor control is placed in “STOP” position. During this “coasting” period, engine continues to induct fuel-air mixture, even when choke is open. If carburetor mixture is too rich, warm engine may flood and become hard starting.

7 Briggs & Stratton Alternator Systems Single Cylinder Engine Models The alternator systems used on Briggs & Stratton single cylinder engines can be identified by the color of the output wire and connector. Table No. 1, lists the various alternator system, engine model applications. Test procedures are listed by page number, reference illustrations by Fig. number. TABLE NO. 1 Basic Model Series 90000 110000 System 3 System 4 Fig. 1 p.
7 IDENTIFICATION 3 Figs. 1 through 12 illustrate the different types of alternator systems discussed in this section. 2 1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTIONS System 3r and 4r Alternator The DC alternator operates as an integral part of the engine, separate from the starting and ignition systems. It provides DC charging current to a 6 or 12 volt battery. 4 • .5 Amps DC+ charging for battery • One BLACK lead (1) from stator (3) • Full wave rectifier (2) Two styles of stator have been used.
7 1.2 AMP ALTERNATOR Used on Model Series 130000 After Date Code 91032400 (Fig. 4) 5 1 The 1.2 amp DC alternator provides current for charging a 12 volt battery. A 12 ampere hour battery is suggested for warm temperature operation and a 24 ampere hour for cold service. 3 • 1.2 amps DC+ for charging battery • One BLACK lead (1) from stator (3) • RED connector output lead (5) Fig. 4 1-1/2 AMP ALTERNATOR Used on Model Series 130000 Before Date Code 91032500 (Fig.
7 AC Only Alternator (Fig. 7) 3 The AC alternator provides current for headlights only. Current for the lights is available only while the engine is running. Output depends upon engine speed. 12 volt lights with a total rating of 60 to 100 watts may be used. With lights rated at 70 watts, the voltage rises from 8 volts at 2400 RPM to 14 volts at 3600 RPM, so headlight brightness changes with engine speed.
7 Quad Circuit Alternator (Fig. 10) 1 The quad circuit alternator system provides AC current through two output leads to the regulator-rectifier. The regulator-rectifier converts AC current to DC and provides unregulated current (5 amps DC–) for lighting and regulated current (5 amps DC+) for charging the battery. The charging rate will vary with engine RPM and temperature. 5 3 7 2 3 NOTE: The quad circuit and 10-16 amp regulated system use the same stator.
7 TROUBLESHOOTING 1. Battery Not Charging a. Engine RPM too low b. Defective battery c. Loose or corroded battery ground leads d. Open, shorted or grounded wires between output connector and battery e. Defective diode (open or shorted) f. Defective or improperly grounded regulator-rectifier g. Diode installed incorrectly (reversed) h. Excessive current draw from accessories i. Low magnetic flux or damaged alternator magnets 2. Battery In State Of Overcharge a.
7 DC Shunt The DMM will withstand DC input of 10 to 20 Amps for up to 30 seconds. When checking DC output on 16 Amp regulated system, use the DC shunt, Tool #19359, Fig. 14, to avoid blowing fuse in meter. Tachometer Digital tachometer, Briggs & Stratton Tool #19389, Fig. 15. Fig. 14 IMPORTANT NOTE: Check battery polarity. Negative (–) side of battery should be grounded to engine or frame; positive (+) side of battery to starter motor and alternator charge lead.
7 6. With engine running at specified RPM, output should be as listed in Table No. 2, Specifications. 7. If low or no output, check stator air gap, when applicable. See Table No. 2, Specifications. 8. If stator air gap is within specification and there is low or no output, replace stator. Test AC Voltage Output Procedures are common to all systems with exceptions noted below. Temporarily disconnect stator wire harness from regulator-rectifier. (5 & 9 amp Regulated Alternator) 1.
7 Stator Air Gap Adjustment (Typical) See Table No. 2, Specifications, if applicable. 1. Rotate flywheel until magnets are away from stator. 2. Loosen both stator mounting nuts and move stator away from flywheel and tighten one nut. 3. Place a .006” (.17 mm) or .010” (.25 mm) thick gauge (7), depending on application, between stator and flywheel. 4. Turn flywheel until magnets are under stator. Loosen nut and let stator be pulled against flywheel magnet. 7 5. Torque mounting nuts to 25 in. lbs. (3 Nm).
7 Rectifier (Diode) Test Note: In the Diode Test position, the DMM will display the forward voltage drop across the diode(s) in the rectifier. If the voltage drop is less than 0.7 volts, the meter will “Beep” once as well as display the voltage drop. A continuous tone indicates continuity (shorted diode). An incomplete circuit (open diode) will be displayed as “OL.” 1-1/2 Amp Alternator Used on Model Series 130000 Before Date Code 91032500 1. Insert RED test lead (1) into meter. receptacle in 2.
7 DC Only Alternator Test Test procedures for both systems are identical. 1. Insert RED test lead (1) into meter. receptacle in 2. Insert BLACK test lead (2) into COM receptacle in meter. 3. Rotate selector to (Diode Test) position. 4. Attach RED test lead clip to point “A” and Black test lead clip to point “B,” Fig. 25 (DC Only), Fig. 26 (Dual Circuit). (It may be necessary to pierce the red (3) wire with a pin as shown.) a. If meter “Beeps” once, diode is OK. b.
7 5. Lighting Circuit (White Wire B–) Attach RED test lead (1) clip to point “A,” Fig. 28. (It may be necessary to pierce white wire (4) with a pin as shown.) Insert BLACK test lead (2) probe into harness connector. a. If meter “Beeps” once, diode is OK. b. If meter makes a continuous tone, diode is defective (shorted). Replace. c. If meter displays “OL,” proceed to step 6. 6. Reverse test leads. a. If meter “Beeps” once, diode is installed backwards. b.
7 Test Lighting Circuit (DC–) 4 The black wire from the regulator-rectifier provides 5 amps (-) DC and is used only for lighting. If the headlights do not operate, first check bulbs, wiring and/or light switch. To test lighting circuit requires a 1 OHM 20 Watt resistor (4, available from an electrical supply house) and a test harness (5, made from 393362) shown in Fig. 30. 5 Fig. 30 1. Insert RED test lead (1) into 10 A receptacle in meter. 2. Inset BLACK test lead (2) into COM receptacle in meter. 3.
7 4. Attach RED test lead clip to DC output terminal on the red output connector on the regulator-rectifier (3), Fig. 32. 5. Attach BLACK test lead clip to positive (+) battery terminal. 6. With the engine running at 3600 RPM. The output should be: * 3-5 Amps – 5 Amp System * 3-9 Amps – 9 Amp System * Depending upon battery voltage. A fully charged battery will show less amperage. 7. If no output or low output is found, replace the regulator-rectifier. 2 3 1 Fig.
7 16 Amp System To avoid blowing fuse in meter when testing DC output of 16 Amp system the DC Shunt, Tool #19359 (3) is required. 1 2 The DC Shunt must be installed on the – (negative) terminal of the battery, Fig. 34. All connections must be clean and secure. 1. Install shunt on negative battery terminal. 2. Insert RED test lead (1) into receptacle in meter and connect to RED post terminal on shunt, Fig. 34. 3.
