MAINTENANCE

Spark Arrester

Failure to heed the following warnings while servicing the spark arrester could
result in serious injury or death.

• Do not perform service on the spark arrester while the system is hot. Allow

components to cool sufficiently before proceeding.

• Wear eye protection and gloves.

• Never run the engine in an enclosed area. Exhaust contains poisonous carbon

monoxide gas.

To remove accumulated carbon, clean the spark arrester at the intervals
recommended in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 53.
1. Remove the six bolts and

remove the arrester from
the end of the muffler.

2. Use a non-synthetic brush

to clean the arrester
screen. A synthetic brush
may melt if components
are warm. If necessary,
blow debris from the
screen with compressed
air.

3. Inspect the screen for wear and damage. Replace the arrester if dam-

age is found.

4. Reinstall the arrester.
5. Torque the bolts to 7 ft. lbs. (9.5 Nm).
