Muffler

Some mufflers are fitted with catalytic converters. See the Technical data section to
find out if your machine is equipped with a
catalytic converter.
The muffler is designed to dampen the
noise level and to direct the exhaust fumes
away from the use£ The exhaust fumes
are hot and can contain sparks, which can
result in fire if the exhaust fumes are
directed towards a dry and flammable
material.
Some mufflers are equipped with a special
spark arresting screen (CC). If your machine is fitted with this type of screen, it
should be cieaned regulady. To access the
screen, remove the outlet cover on the
front of the muffler. Use a wire brush to
clean the screen On mufflers without a
catalytic converter the screen should be
cieaned weekly, or replaced if necessary.
On mufflers fitted with a catalytic converter
the screen should be checked and cleaned
monthly. If the screen is damaged it
should be replaced. If the screen is frequently blocked, this can be a sign that the
function of the catalytic converter is impaired Contact your dealer to inspect the
muffler. A blocked screen wiil cause the
engine to overheat resulting in damage to
the cyiinder and piston
CAUTION!
Never use a machine that has
a faulty or loose muffler. Ensure the muffler
bolts are tight.

MAINTENANCE
Spark plug

The spark plug condition is influenced by:
• Incorrect carburetor adjustment.
• An incorrect fuel mixture (too much or incorrect type of oil).
• Poor quality gasoline and/or oil
• A dirty air fitter.
These factors cause deposits on the spark
plug electrodes, which may result in operating problems and starting difficulties.
If the machine is low on power, difficult to
start or runs poorly at idle speed: always
check the spark plug first before taking
any further action, if the spark plug is dirty,
clean it and check that the electrode gap is
0.024" (0.6 mm) The spark plug should be
replaced after about a month in operation or
earlier if necessary.
0.024" (0.6 ram)

CAUTION! Always use the recommended
spark p_ug typet Use of the wrong spark
plug can damage the piston/cylinder.
