maintenance, and servicing.
• It is a violation of California Public
Resource Code, Section 4442, to use or
operate the engine on any forest- covered,
brush-covered, or grass-covered land
unless the exhaust system is equipped with
a spark arrester, as defined in Section

Other states or federal jurisdictions may
have similar laws. Contact the original
equipment manufacturer, retailer, or dealer
to obtain a spark arrester designed for the
exhaust system installed on this engine..
