AOkWARNING:
The muffler on this prod-

chemicals
known to the State of

to cause cancer.
As your unit is used, carbon deposits
build up
on the muffler and spark arresting

ard or affecting
engine performance.
For normal homeowner
use, the muffler and

mend that your muffler
be serviced
or re-
placed
