What company makes Snapper lawn mowers?
Snapper lawn mowers (including model P2167519B) are made under the Snapper brand, and Snapper has been part of Briggs & Stratton since 2004. For model identification details (like what the letters in the model number indicate), we recommend checking the P2167519B owner's manual.
Quick background on Snapper manufacturing
- Snapper is the brand name on the mower and parts.
- Briggs & Stratton acquired Snapper in 2004.
- Many Snapper walk-behind mowers use Briggs & Stratton engines (your manual’s model-number key shows “B” = Briggs & Stratton).
- Some Snapper models can use other engine options (the manual also references Kawasaki as an option on certain models).
How to confirm what you have on your P2167519B
Use the mower’s model and serial information plus the engine label:
- Check the mower’s model number tag for P2167519B.
- Look at the engine shroud label for the engine manufacturer and model.
- Match the model-number explanation in the P2167519B owner's manual.
What the model-number letters typically mean (from the manual)
| Item in model number | What it indicates |
|---|---|
| P | Self-propelled |
| 21 | 21-inch cutting width |
| 70 | 7.0 engine power designation |
| B | Briggs & Stratton engine designation |
Why it matters
Knowing who made the mower brand and who made the engine helps you order the right maintenance and repair parts (for example, ignition and fuel-system parts are often engine-specific, while wheels, drive components, and controls are mower-specific).

Where to find model number on Snapper lawn mower?
On a Snapper walk-behind mower like model P2167519B, the model and serial number are printed on an ID label attached to the mower (typically on the deck or rear housing area). Use those numbers when ordering parts or contacting Snapper support; see the P2167519B owner's manual.
Common places to check on a Snapper walk-behind mower
Look for a sticker or metal tag in these spots (wipe off grass and dirt first):
- Top of the cutting deck near the engine mount
- Rear of the deck near the bagger opening or discharge area
- Back panel or rear housing behind the engine
- Side of the deck near a rear wheel height adjuster
- Handle support brackets near where the handle bolts to the deck
How to read the label (what to write down)
We recommend recording both numbers exactly as shown so you get the correct replacement parts.
- Model number (example: P2167519B)
- Serial number (unique to your mower)
- Date of purchase (helpful for records)
| What you need | Why you need it | When you’ll use it |
|---|---|---|
| Model number | Identifies the exact mower version | Parts lookup, diagrams, service info |
| Serial number | Identifies your specific unit | Warranty and customer support |
Why it matters
Snapper uses the model and serial number to match the correct parts and service information. The manual also notes that having your model and serial number ready speeds up help from Snapper Customer Relations.

Who repairs Snapper lawn mowers?
For a Snapper walk-behind mower like model P2167519B, we recommend using an authorized Snapper dealer for annual service and repairs, especially for safety-related checks. For convenient in-home scheduling and common repairs, Sears Home Services is also a practical option. See the P2167519B owner's manual for service guidance.
Best repair options (in order)
- Authorized Snapper dealer: best for factory-correct service and safety device updates
- Sears Home Services: convenient for many routine repairs and troubleshooting visits
- Local small-engine repair shop: good for basic engine, drive, and tune-up work
- DIY repair: best for simple maintenance (blade care, deck cleaning, cable adjustments)
What to do before you book service
- Write down your mower model number P2167519B and the serial number
- Describe the symptom clearly (won’t start, won’t move, poor cut, vibration)
- Check obvious items first: fuel level, oil level, controls moving freely, bag/adapter installed correctly
- If you’ll be transporting the mower, let the shop know if it has fuel in the tank
Common symptoms and who typically handles them
| Symptom | Most common repair provider | Typical focus area |
|---|---|---|
| Won’t start | Dealer or small-engine shop | fuel, ignition, compression checks |
| Won’t move/self-propel | Dealer or service tech | drive cable, transmission, wheel drive control |
| Poor cut/uneven cut | DIY or shop | blade condition, deck buildup, height adjustment |
| Safety control issues | Dealer strongly preferred | blade control and safety devices |
Why it matters
The manual recommends having the machine serviced by an authorized Snapper dealer at least once a year and using genuine Snapper replacement parts to maintain original safety standards. That annual service helps prevent thrown-object hazards, drive issues, and unsafe control operation.
