Muffler
The muffler is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum
and to direct exhaust fumes away from the user. A muffler
fitted with a catalytic converter is also designed to reduce
harmful exhaust gases.
In countries that have a warm and dry climate there is a
significant risk of fire. We therefore fit certain mufflers with a
spark arrestor screen. Check whether the muffler on your
machine is fitted with this kind of screen.
For mufflers it is very important that you follow the
instructions on checking, maintaining and servicing your
machine.
Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to the
machine.
If the muffler on your machine is fitted with a spark arrestor
screen this must be cleaned regularly. A blocked screen will
cause the engine to overheat and may lead to serious
damage.
WARNING! 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. Remember the
risk of fire!
WARNING! The inside of the muffler contain
!
chemicals that may be carcinogenic. Avoid
contact with these elements in the event of
a damaged muffler.
WARNING! Bear in mind that:
!
The exhaust fumes from the engine are hot
and may contain sparks which can start a
fire. Never start the machine indoors or
near combustible material!
