Warning
OPERATING FORESTRY, PARK AND GARDEN POWER EQUIPMENT
Under the laws of several countries and states, it is unlawful to operate an internal combustion
engine that uses hydrocarbon fuels on any forest-covered, brush-covered or grass-covered land
or on land where grain, hay or any other flammable agricultural crop is grown without a properly
functioning spark arrestor.
Like with most outdoor power equipment, the engine in your power equipment is an internal
combustion engine that burns petrol (UK)/ gas (USA), a hydrocarbon fuel. Therefore, your power
equipment must be equipped with a spark arrestor muffler that is in continuous, effective wor-
king order. The spark arrestor must be attached to the engine exhaust system in such a way that
flames are prevented from escaping the system and from coming into contact with flammable
material.
Failure on the part of the owner/operator of the machine to comply with this regulation is a mis-
demeanour under certain law (e.g., Californian Law), and may also be a violation of other national
and/or federal regulations, laws, ordinances, or codes. Contact your local chief fire officer or
forest ranger for specific information about the applicable regulations in your area.
The standard muffler installed on ELIET engines is not equipped with a spark arrestor. One must
be added before operation if the machine is to be used in an area where a spark arrestor is
required by law. Please contact your local authorities to find out if these laws apply to you.
Please contact your authorised dealer to learn more about the spark arrestor options that are
available to you.
