How to Identify Your Part Number – A Quick Guide
Ordering the right garden machinery part can save you time, money, and frustration. The key is knowing where to find your model and part numbers before you shop. Here are some quick tips:
Briggs Engines
Most Briggs parts (like cowling covers, filters, and pipes) are identified by the engine model, type, and code. You’ll usually find these stamped on the rocker cover of the engine. Having these details ensures you get the correct genuine replacement.
Ride-Ons
For ride-on mowers and garden tractors, the model number plate is normally located under the seat. This number is essential for matching frames, blades, and other parts accurately.
Examples
Filters, Carbs, Coils – Match via engine model & code (e.g. Briggs 40877 0130-01).
Blades, Belts, Spindles, Decks – Use the mower model (e.g. Stiga or Castelgarden plate under the seat).
Tip: Take a clear photo of your model plate before ordering so you always have the numbers to hand.
Getting these details right first time means faster delivery, no returns, and less downtime in the garden!
