Loosen the screws and nuts. Remove and check that
the mufer is ok.
Some mufers are equipped with a special spark arrestor
screen. If your machine has this type of mufer, you
should clean the screen at least once a week. This is best
done with a wire brush. A blocked screen will cause the
engine to overheat and may lead to serious damage.
Note! The screen must be replaced if it is damaged. If the
screen is blocked the machine will overheat and this will
cause damage to the cylinder and piston. Never use a
machine with a mufer that is in poor condition. Never
use a mufer if the spark arrestor screen is missing
or defective.
The mufer is designed to reduce the noise level and to
direct the exhaust gases away from the operator. The
exhaust gases are hot and can contain sparks, which may
cause re if directed against dry and combustible
material.
