b) Clean the spark arrester screen if it is blocked.
Clean weekly if your product has a catalytic
converter. Clean monthly if your product does not
have a catalytic converter.
CAUTION: A blocked spark arrester
screen causes the engine to become too
hot which causes damage to the engine.

examine the muffler. A blocked spark
arrester screen causes overheating and
results in damage to the cylinder and piston.
