Spark arrester maintenance (Optional parts)
Be careful not to damage the spark arrester screen.
The spark arrester must be serviced every 100 hours to maintain its
efficiency.
If the mower has been running, the muffler will be very hot. Allow it
to cool before proceeding.
It is illegal in some areas to operate an engine without a spark
arrester. Check local laws and regulations before operating. An
optional spark arrester is available from Honda dealers.
