used oil according to your local regulations.
Spark Plug:
The spark plug gap should be set at .030. The plug is a RC12YC resistor type plug. This plug
requires a 5/8 spark plug wrench for removal and installation.
Air Filter:
Always disconnect the spark plug wire before servicing.
Your engine has a flat cartridge type filter element. The Briggs and Stratton number is 491588.
It does not have a pre cleaner. Replacement is recommended every 25 hours or sooner in
dusty environments. Check your filter if your engine runs poorly, idles rough, or lacks power.
Removal requires a 5/16-nut driver or socket
wrench, or a flat head screwdriver. Lift the
cover about an inch so that it clears the tabs on
the bottom of the cover. Then slide the cover
down between the orange chassis and the
spring. The element can then be replaced.
When replacing the cover make sure that the
tabs in the bottom of the cover fit into the slots
on the air cleaner base.
See your engine manual for more information.
Transmission:
Always disconnect the spark plug wire before servicing.
The transmission is filled with gear oil at the factory, however it is wise to check it before you
run the DR® Powerwagon™ 4 x 2 and then every eight hours or daily. It requires 2 liters
(2.114 quarts) of 90w-gear oil. It is recommended that you change the oil after 200 hours. See
Figure 3 on Page 10 for the location of the drain, fill and sight glass. When checking the
engine oil make a habit of checking the transmission oil as well. The oil should show 2/3 in
the sight glass.
