SERVICING YOUR TILLER
Spark Arrester Service (Optional)
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. Loosen the 5 mm hex bolt, then remove the fan
cover.
2. Remove the 3 x 6 mm self-tapping screw from the
spark arrester, and remove the spark arrester
from the muffler.
3. Use a brush to remove carbon deposits from the
spark arrester screen. Be careful to avoid
damaging the screen.
The spark arrester must be free of breaks and
holes. Replace the spark arrester if it is damaged.
4. Install the spark arrester in the reverse order of
disassembly.
5. Install the fan cover, and tighten the 5 mm hex
bolt securely.
