Power Ratings: The net torque rating for individual gasoline engine models is labeled in accordance with SAE (Society of Automotive
Engineers) code J1940 Small Engine Power & Torque Rating Procedure, and is rated in accordance with SAE J1349. Net torque values
are derived at 3600 RPM and are taken with exhaust and air cleaner installed. Given the wide array of conditions in which they are
placed, the gasoline engine may not develop the rated net torque when used in a given piece of power equipment. This difference is
due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to, the variety of application limitations, ambient operating conditions (temperature,
humidity, altitude), and engine-to-engine variability. Due to manufacturing and capacity limitations, Briggs & Stratton may substitute an
engine of higher rated torque for this engine.
* Generator per PGMA (Portable Generator Manufacturers’ Association) standard ANSI/PGMA G300-2018, Safety and Performance of
Portable Generators.
** Per Briggs & Stratton 628K
Problem Cause Correction
Engine is running, but no AC
output is available.
1. One of the circuit breakers is open.
2. Poor connection or defective cord set.
3. Connected device is bad.
4. GFCI tripped.
1. Reset circuit breaker.
2. Check and repair.
3. Connect another device that is in
good condition.
4. Reset GFCI.
Engine runs well at no-load but
“bogs down” when loads are
connected.
1. Generator is overloaded. 1. See Generator Capacity.
Engine will not start; starts and
runs rough or shuts down when
running.
1. Start switch set to OFF position.
2. Fuel valve is in off (0) position.
3. Low oil level.
4. Dirty air cleaner.
5. Out of fuel.
6. Spark plug wire not connected to
spark plug.
7. Flooded with fuel.
8. Low battery charge.
1. Set switch to RUN position.
2. Turn fuel valve to on (I) position.
3. Fill crankcase to proper level or
place generator on level surface.
4. Clean or replace air cleaner.
5. Fill fuel tank.
6. Connect wire to spark plug.
7. Wait 5 minutes and re-crank engine.
8. Charge battery for 24 hours.
Engine shuts down and CO
shutdown LED blinks red
(•• •).
1. Generator improperly located.
1. Move generator to an open,
outdoor area. Air out premises (e.g.
open windows and doors) before
reoccupying. See Carbon Monoxide
(CO) Shutdown System.
For all other issues, see a Briggs & Stratton authorized dealer.
