Idaho, Maine, Minnesota, New Jersey, Ore-

gon, and Washington require by law that

many internal combustion engines be

equipped with a spark arresting screen. If you

operate in a locale where such regulations ex-

ist, you are legally responsible for maintaining

the operating condition of these parts. Failure

to do so is a violation of the law. For normal

homeowner use, the muffler and spark arrest-

ing screen will not require any service. After

50 hours of use, we recommend that your

muffler be serviced or replaced by your autho-

rized service dealer.
