NOTICE
When attaching a spark plug onto the engine, tighten by hand at first before tightening with a plug
wrench. If you start by using a plug wrench to screw in the spark plug, there is a danger of
cross-threading it.
A loose spark plug can overheat and damage the engine.
Overtightening the spark plug can damage the threads in the cylinder head.

4) Spark Arrester (optional equipment)

Your lawn mower engine is not factory-equipped with a spark arrester.
In some areas, it is illegal to operate an engine without a spark arrester. Check local laws and
regulations. An optional USDA approved spark arrester is available
The spark arrester must be serviced every 100 hours to keep it functioning as designed.
