FOR SAFE OPERATION
Muffler
The muffler is designed to reduce the noise
level and to direct the exhaust gases away
from the operator.
CAUTION!
Muffler is fitted with a catalytic
converter designed to reduce exhaust gas
emissions.
For mufflers, it is very important that you follow the instructions
on checking, maintaining, and servicing your machine. See
Checking, maintaining and servicing the machine’s safety equip-
ment section.
CAUTION:
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.
Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler.
Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to the ma-
chine. The muffler on this unit is equipped with a special spark
arrestor mesh. The mesh should be checked and, if necessary,
cleaned by a servicing dealer. A blocked mesh will cause the
machine to overheat, which can lead to serious damage.
