SPARK ARRESTER (applicable types)
The spark arrester may be standard or an optional part, depending
on the engine type. In some areas, it is illegal to operate an engine
without a spark arrester. Check local laws and regulations. A spark
arrester is available from authorized Honda servicing dealers.
The spark arrester must be serviced every 100 hours to keep it
functioning as designed.
If the engine has been running, the muffler will be hot. Allow it to
cool before servicing the spark arrester.
