Parts for Briggs & Stratton 445877-0502-E1: Air Cleaner, Blower Housing Parts

Flange screws have a flange located near the top of the screw, which helps to distribute the connection force over a larger area to reduce potential damage to the machine. It also allows the screws to be used in oversized or irregular holes, and it helps to ensure they stay in place. This flange screw also has a hex top. Screws can last for a long time. However, they may become corroded or worn over time and need to be replaced. They could also become lost and need a replacement. Without all of the screws in the proper places in a machine, it could vibrate too much, which could render it less effective or unsafe to use. The flange screw is a genuine OEM part that can be used with many types of machines including lawn mowers, snowblowers, tillers, pressure washers, leaf blowers, generators, wood chippers, and other small engines. The screws are compatible with Briggs & Stratton, Craftsman, Toro, Cub Cadet, Murray, Lawn-Boy, Snapper, Simplicity, and MTD.

Basic lawn and garden machine maintenance indicates that an owner should change air and fuel filters at least once per year, per machine. This air filter cartridge is designed for an array of lawn and garden equipment, including lawn tractors and lawn mowers. This replacement air filter cartridge fits in machines made by Cub Cadet, Toro, Simplicity, Husqvarna and Briggs and Stratton. This is an OEM replacement part sold individually and will require only basic tools, such as a screwdriver or socket set, to remove the casing, take out the old filter, and add the new one. As an important part of the operation of a gas-powered engine, a clean air filter ensures efficient and safe function. This part is sold individually.

This replacement exhaust gasket is a certified genuine OEM part for a lawn tractor engine. This gasket helps to seal off the exhaust from the carburetor. For an engine to run, it must first mix fuel with air to prepare the fuel for combustion. By sealing off the exhaust, this gasket allows for fresh air to enter into the carburetor from outside the engine rather than from the exhaust. Gaskets often degrade over time due to the stress of pressure and heat. If the exhaust gasket breaks its seal, it can affect the engine's overall performance. Be on the lookout for an especially noisy engine that doesn't provide as much power and is less fuel efficient. There may also be a noticeable burning smell coming from the engine. To replace the exhaust gasket, use a socket wrench and wrench set to remove the air filter and blower housings, then remove the exhaust manifold and switch out the gasket. This replacement exhaust gasket is compatible with engines made by Toro, Briggs & Stratton, Murray, Snapper, and Simplicity. It comes sourced directly from its original manufacturer and does not include any additional hardware.

The largest factor hampering the engine efficiency of lawn mowers is the air in the air/fuel mix. This Briggs & Stratton pre-cleaner filter is a flat device that sits inside the air filter housing and purifies the air of contaminants and particulates before it even reaches the air filter. This improves the lifespan of the air filter and improves the efficiency of the engine. The pre-cleaner, because it is highly effective at removing dust and other contaminants from the air, will eventually become full of particulate. At that point, the user may notice difficulty in getting the mower to perform. To replace the pre-cleaner, remove the outer air filter cover snd locate the old pre-cleaner just inside. Remove the old filter and replace it with the new one. Attach the top cover. This is an OEM certified replacement part that was built to the exacting standard of the original equipment of the tractor. Although it was manufactured intentionally for the Toro lawn tractor, the filter is also compatible with several other brands, including Simplicity and Briggs & Stratton.
