SPARK ARRESTER MAINTENANCE (optional equipment)
The engine in your tiller 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 very hot. Allow the muffler
to cool before servicing the spark arrester.
1. Remove the two 8 mm nuts @ and remove the muffler from the cylinder.
2. Remove the two 4 mm screws @ from the muffler deflector 0, and remove
the muffler deflector and muffler guide @.
3. Remove the four 5 mm screws @ from the muffler protector @, and
remove the muffler protector.
4. Remove the 4 mm screw @ from the spark arrester @I, and remove the
