CLEAN SPARK ARRESTOR SCREEN
(50 STATE)
The engine exhaust muffler has a spark arrestor screen. Inspect and
clean the screen every 50 hours of operation or once each year,
whichever comes first.
Clean and inspect the spark arrestor as follows:
Remove the screen retainer by removing the retainer clamp.
Slide the spark arrestor screen out from the muffler outlet tube.
Inspect screen and replace if torn, perforated or otherwise
damaged. Do NOT use a defective screen. If screen is not
damaged, clean with a commercial solvent.
Replace the screen and retainer and secure with retainer clamp.
