WARNING

OPERATORS IN CALIFORNIA AND OTHER APPLICABLE STATES.

Under California law, and under the laws of several other states, it is not lawful to operate an internal combustion engine using hydrocarbon fuels on any forest covered, brush covered, or grass covered land; or on land covered with grain, hay, or other flammable agricultural crops, without an engine spark arrester installed and in continuous effective working order.

The internal combustion engine on this unit burns gasoline, a hydrocarbon fuel. Therefore, this unit must be equipped with a spark arrester muffler in continuous effective working order. The spark arrester must be attached to the engine exhaust system in such a manner that flames or heat from the system will not ignite flammable material. Failure of the owner/operator of this unit to comply with this regulation is a misdemeanor under California law, and may also be a violation of other state and/or federal regulations, laws, ordinances, or codes. Contact the local fire marshal or forest service for specific information about which regulations apply in your area.
