Description
Overview:
This Genuine Briggs & Stratton Filter Pre Cleaner is a foam sleeve that fits over the BS491588S air filter cartridge to improve engine protection. Made from durable open‐cell foam, it traps grass, dust, and larger particles before they reach the main paper element, helping to maintain airflow and extend filter life. It is intended for small petrol engines on garden and light construction equipment powered by Briggs & Stratton, such as walk‐behind and ride‐on lawn mowers and similar machinery. Designed for a straightforward, slide‐on fit, it supports routine servicing and reliable day‐to‐day running. For reference, it is designed to pair with the 491588S air filter, and is commonly associated with pre‐cleaner number 491435S where specified.
