Whether for annual maintenance or emergency service, our certified generator technicians have you covered
REQUEST AN APPOINTMENTBriggs & Stratton Power Protect models come with either an industry leading, 6-year standard parts & labour warranty or 10-year warranty on DX models.
Just like the vehicles you drive, generators need routine maintenance.
Annual maintenance is required as part of your Briggs & Stratton warranty (or after 100 hours of use, whichever comes first).

Part of storm prep should always include spare oil on hand and checking the hour meter for a baseline of usage.
If your power has been out for 3-4 days or more, you will need to schedule a maintenance call as part of your warranty coverage.
If your generator is being operated during a prolonged outage, be sure to check the oil & top up (if needed) using 5W-30 synthetic oil (for Briggs & Stratton home series). Keep an eye on your usage by checking the hour meter (located on the controller). If you exceed 100 hours of use, you will need to schedule a maintenance call to ensure optimal operation. Maintenance should be done once per year, or every 100 hours (whichever comes first).
Maintenance kits can be purchased to have all the basics on hand, contact our after-sales department for details.
