Figure 16 - Air Filter

The engine exhaust muffler has a spark arrestor screen. Inspect and clean the screen at least once each year (Figure 17). If unit is used regularly, inspect and clean more often.

If using the generator on any forest-covered, brush-covered or grass-covered unimproved land, it must be equipped with a spark arrestor. The spark arrestor must be maintained in good condition by the owner/operator.

Clean and inspect the spark arrestor when the engine is at ambient temperature as follows:

1.Remove the spark arrestor screen from the muffler by loosening the clamp and removing the screw.

2.Inspect screen and replace if torn, perforated or otherwise damaged. DO NOT USE a defective screen. If screen is not damaged, clean it with commercial solvent.

3.Replace the spark arrestor and secure with the clamp and screw.

NOTE:

To order a new air filter or spark arrestor screen, please contact the nearest authorized service center at 1-800-333-1322.
