separation between the product body and the handle
unit.
1. Do a visual check for deformation and damage.
2. Make sure that the vibration damping units are
correctly attached.
To do a check of the muffler
WARNING: Do not operate the product
without a muffler or a defective muffler. A
defective muffler can increase the noise
level and the risk of fire. Do not use the
product without, or with a broken, spark
arrester screen. The spark arrester screen
must be replaced if it is damaged.
WARNING: The mufflers become very hot
during and after operation, also at idle
speed.
CAUTION: If the spark arrester screen is
frequently blocked it can be a sign that
performance of the catalytic converter is
decreased. Turn to your servicing dealer to
examine the muffler. A blocked spark
arrester screen will cause overheating and
result in damage to the cylinder and piston.
WARNING: The inner surfaces of the muffler
contain chemicals that can cause cancer. Be
careful not to touch these elements if the
muffler is damaged.
