3.3.9 CLEAN SPARK ARRESTOR SCREEN
The engine exhaust muffler has a spark arrestor screen. Inspect
and clean the screen at least once each year (Figure 17). If unit is
used regularly, inspect and clean more often.
If using the generator on any forest-covered, brush-covered
or grass-covered unimproved land, it must equipped with a
spark arrestor. The spark arrestor must be maintained in good
condition by the owner/operator.
Clean and inspect the spark arrestor when the engine is at
ambient temperature as follows:
•
Remove spark arrestor from muffler by removing the screw.
•
Inspect screen and replace if torn, perforated or otherwise
damaged. DO NOT USE a defective screen. If screen is not
damaged, clean it with commercial solvent.
•
