HOW TO
CHECK THE MUFFLER
Check the muffler every 50 hours. Make sure the muffler is correctly
mounted and is not loose. If the muffler is worn or burnt, replace with
a new muffler. A worn muffler is a fire hazard and can also damage
the engine.
If you mount a spark arrester to the muffler, also check the spark
arrester when you check the muffler. If the spark arrester is worn or
damaged, replace it with a new spark arrester. See your nearest
authorized service center for a spark arrester.
