SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

5. Muffler

The muffler is designed to give the lowest possible noise level and to direct the engine‘s exhaust fumes away from the operator. Muffler fitted with catalytic converter is also designed to reduce harmful exhaust components.

In countries that have a warm and dry climate the risk of fire is obvious. We have therefore fitted certain mufflers with a spark arrest screen. Make sure that your muffler is fitted with this kind of screen.

It is extremely important that the instructions for checking, maintaining and servicing the muffler are followed. (see the section “Control, maintenance and service of the machine‘s safety equipment“).

!WARNING!

Mufflers fitted with catalytic converters become extremely hot during use and after stopping. This also applies at idling speeds. Contact can result in burns to the skin. Be observant to the risk of fire!

!WARNING!

Bear in mind that exhaust fumes:

contain carbon monoxide, which can cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Therefore never start or run the machine indoors.

are hot and can contain sparks that can cause fires. Never start the machine indoors or close to inflammable material.
