cause fire if directed against dry and combustible
material.
Some mufflers are equipped with a special spark arrestor
screen. If your machine has this type of muffler, you
should clean the screen at least once a week. This is best
done with a wire brush. On mufflers without a catalytic
converter the screen should be cleaned weekly, or
replaced if necessary. On mufflers fitted with a catalytic
converter the screen should be checked, and if necessary
cleaned, monthly.
If the screen is damaged it should be
replaced. If the screen is frequently blocked, this can be
a sign that the performance of the catalytic converter is
impaired. Contact your dealer to inspect the muffler. A
blocked screen will cause the machine to overheat and
result in damage to the cylinder and piston.
CAUTION! Never use a machine with a defective muffler.
Cooling system
To keep the working temperature as low as possible the
machine is equipped with a cooling system.
The cooling system consists of:
1 Air intake on the starter.
2 Fins on the flywheel.
3 Cooling fins on the cylinder.
4 Cylinder cover (directs cold air over the cylinder).
5 Muffler cover
6 Muffler plate
Clean the cooling system with a brush once a week, more
often in demanding conditions. A dirty or blocked cooling
system results in the machine overheating which causes
damage to the piston and cylinder.
Spark plug
The spark plug condition is influenced by:
• Incorrect carburetor adjustment.
• An incorrect fuel mixture (too much or incorrect type
of oil).
• A dirty air filter.
These factors cause deposits on the spark plug
electrodes, which may result in operating problems and
starting difficulties.
!
WARNING! Mufflers fitted with catalytic
converters get very hot during use and
remain so for some time after stopping.
This also applies at idle speed. Contact
can result in burns to the skin.
Remember the risk of fire!
