SPARK ARRESTOR

The chain saw is provided with a Spark Arrester System (part number em-50012092) (Fig. 52) complying with the requirements of SAE J335 standard.

For compliance with the standard, two spiked bumpers (part number em-50010050A) (Fig. 53) have to be mounted, as provided on the chain saw in the box.

The Spark Arrester System needs periodic and accurate maintenance and cleaning:
