This is a small engine brake replacement from Briggs and Stratton intended for use with lawnmowers. A well-maintained brake system is a must-have for all outdoor equipment with engines. If the brakes are working properly, they should generally stop any engine as well as any attached equipment (such as cutting blades) within a few seconds. If the user has stopped using the machine, or if the user has released the break bail, this should also trigger the brake system to shut the engine down. If the engine operates for more than a few seconds after braking, then the brakes are likely in need of a replacement or adjustment.This process should be taken care of urgently as it poses a safety risk if it goes unchecked. Brakes, brake pads, and all supplementary braking mechanisms should be evaluated routinely for any flaws or issues, even if those issues can be taken care of easily like unclogging debris.This brake is a genuine OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is sold individually. The manufacturer of this part is Briggs and Stratton.
