Maintenance
Spark Arrestor Clean-Out
To remove accumulated carbon, clean the spark arrestor at the intervals recommended in the
Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 97.
WARNING
Failure to heed the following warnings while servicing the spark arrestor could result in serious injury
or death.
Do not perform clean-out immediately after the engine has been run, as the exhaust system
becomes very hot. Serious burns could result from contact with the exhaust components. 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 that
can cause loss of consciousness or death in a very short time.
