■SPARK ARRESTER

•The muffler is equipped with a spark arrester to prevent red hot carbon from flying out of the exhaust outlet. Periodically inspect and clean as necessary with a wire brush. In the State of California it is required by law (Section 4442 of the California Public Resources Code) to equip a spark arrester when a gas powered tool is used in any forest covered, brush covered, or grass covered unimproved land.

■GEAR CASE (MA7)

•The reduction gears are lubricated by multipurpose, lithium-based grease in the gear case. Supply new grease every 25 hours of use or more often depending on the job condition.

•Remove the side bolt in gearcase opposite of grease nipple before installing new grease to arrange for old grease to exit.

■INTAKE AIR COOLING VENT

WARNING

•Never touch the cylinder, muffler, or spark plugs with your bare hands immediately after stopping the engine. The engine can become very hot when in operation, and doing so could result in severe burns.

•When checking the brushcutter to make sure that it is okay before using it, check the area around the muffler and remove any wood chips or leaves which have attached themselves to the brushcutter. Note that failing to do so could cause the muffler to become overheated, and that this in turn could cause the brushcutter to catch on fire. Always make sure that the muffler is clean and free of wood chips, leaves, and other waste before use.

•Check the intake air cooling vent and the area around the cylinder cooling fins after every 25 hours of use for blockage, and remove any waste which has attached itself to the brushcutter. Note that it is necessary to remove the plug guard shown in Figure 20 in order to be able to view the upper part of the cylinder.
