Craftsman 247204110 zero-turn riding lawn mower Parts

On the Craftsman riding mower model 247204110, the model number is typically printed on a product ID label attached to the frame; common spots are near the rear wheels, near the engine, or under the seat area. Confirm the full number before ordering parts or manuals.

Common label locations to check

• Left or right side of the frame near the rear wheels
• Frame area near the engine compartment
• Under the seat (lift the seat and look on the frame or seat pan area)
• Near the footrest or running board area
• On a metal plate or adhesive label (often with a barcode)

What to write down (so parts match)

Record the information exactly as shown on the label:

• Model number (for this mower: 247204110)
• Serial number (helps confirm production run)
• Any product number or factory code listed

Label item	Why it matters	Example format
Model number	Ensures diagrams and parts match your mower	247204110
Serial number	Helps confirm correct revisions	Letters and numbers
Product/factory code	Can narrow down compatible components	Varies

Why it matters

Craftsman riding mowers can look similar across model families, but small differences (deck hardware, safety switches, drive components) can change the correct replacement part. Using the exact model number helps us match the right diagrams and parts the first time.

Helpful next step

Use the diagrams and identification info in the 247204110 owner’s manual to confirm the label location and how the mower is configured.

On the Craftsman 247204110, we identify the engine by reading the engine’s ID label (model, type, and code) stamped or printed on the engine shroud, valve cover, or blower housing. The mower model number alone does not uniquely identify the engine; the engine tag does.

Where to look on the engine

Check these common locations first (clean the area so the numbers are readable):

• Top of the engine cover or blower housing (often easiest to see)
• Valve cover area (especially on twin-cylinder engines)
• Side of the engine shroud near the muffler or starter
• Near the spark plug(s) or above the flywheel screen
• On a metal tag or sticker attached to the shroud

For diagrams and labeling notes specific to this mower, use the 247204110 owner’s manual.

What numbers you need (and why)

Most engine makers use a 3-part ID. Write down everything exactly as shown.

What you see on the engine	What it’s used for	Example format
Model number	Identifies the engine family	12XXXX-XXXX-XX
Type or trim code	Identifies carburetor, governor, and other build details	XXXXX
Code/date	Identifies production date and revisions	YYMMDD or similar

Quick tips to avoid misidentification

• Use the engine’s numbers, not the mower’s deck or frame decals.
• Record letters and dashes; one character off can change the parts match.
• If the label is worn, take a clear photo and use a flashlight at an angle.
• If you are chasing a no-start or shutoff issue, confirm safety interlocks too; a faulty seat switch 725P05058 can mimic engine problems.

Why it matters

The correct engine ID ensures we match the right tune-up parts (spark plug, air filter, fuel filter), gaskets, and carburetor components for your exact engine build, even when multiple engines were used across similar Craftsman riding mower models.

Craftsman uses engines from several manufacturers across its mower lineup, but for Craftsman model 247204110, the engine brand is typically Briggs & Stratton. We still recommend confirming the engine maker from the engine ID label on your mower and the 247204110 owner’s manual.

What Craftsman uses (and what applies to model 247204110)

Across Craftsman riding mowers, you may see different engine brands depending on model and production run.

• Common Craftsman engine suppliers include Briggs & Stratton, Kohler, and Kawasaki
• For 247204110, Briggs & Stratton is the most common factory engine brand
• The most reliable confirmation is the engine’s own ID tag (not the mower hood decal)

Situation	What to use	Why it matters
Identifying engine brand on 247204110	Engine ID label on the engine	Confirms the actual engine manufacturer installed
Ordering mower chassis parts	Mower model 247204110	Matches frame, deck, controls, and safety parts
Ordering engine-only service parts	Engine model/type code	Needed for filters, ignition, carburetor, internal gaskets

How to confirm the engine brand on your mower

Look for an ID label or stamped plate in these common locations:

• On top of the engine shroud (blower housing)
• Near the valve cover area
• Near the starter or flywheel housing
• On the side of the engine block (stamped numbers)

Write down every character from the label (model, type, and code). That information is what engine parts catalogs use.

If you are shopping parts for 247204110

Use the mower model for equipment parts, and the engine ID for engine parts.

• Safety interlock parts like the seat switch 725P05058 match the mower model
• Engine sealing parts may be mower-listed, such as the lawn tractor engine exhaust manifold gasket 721P0460, but engine ID confirmation helps avoid mismatches

Why it matters

Craftsman is the equipment brand, but the engine is a separate system with its own model code. Confirming the engine ID helps you get the correct tune-up and repair parts the first time.
