Inspect & Clean Spark Arrestor (if Equipped)
Equip engine with spark arrestor if machine will be used
near any ignitable forest, brush, or grassy land. (See
engine Owner’s Manual provided to determine if the
engine is already equipped.) Make sure you comply with
applicable local, state, and federal codes.
If the engine is equipped with a spark arrester, clean
and inspect it regularly following manufacturer’s service
instructions. Replace if damaged.
Keep Compressor Clean
Do not allow air intakes to become blocked. If dust or
debris accumulates in the compressor, clean the
compressor with a damp cloth or soft bristle brush.
Note: Do not spray compressor with a garden hose or
pressure washer. Water may enter the compressor
and cause damage to the engine and pump.
IMPORTANT
If a part needs replacement, only use parts that meet
the manufacturer’s part number specifications.
Replacement parts that do not meet specifications may
result in a safety hazard or poor operation of the
compressor. Major service, including installation or
replacement of parts, should be made by a qualified
electrical service technician.
