SPARK ARRESTER (applicable types)
In Europe and other countries where the machinery directive 2006/42/EC
is enforced, this cleaning should be done by your servicing dealer.
Your 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. 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.
Spark Arrester Removal
1. Remove the three 6 mm bolts from the muffler protector, and
remove the muffler protector.
2. Remove the special screw from the spark arrester, and remove the
spark arrester from the muffler.
Spark Arrester Cleaning &
Inspection

deposits from the spark arrester
screen. Be careful not to damage
the screen. Replace the spark
arrester if it has breaks or holes.
