Have a Briggs & Stratton Authorized Service Dealer inspect and clean the air cooling system as recommended in the Maintenance Schedule. Make sure the oil cooler fins are free of dirt and debris. Keep linkage, springs and controls clean. Keep the area around and behind the muffler free of any combustible debris.
