MUFFLER
WARNING
•Inspect periodically, the muffler for loose fasten- ers, any damage or corrosion. If any sign of ex- haust leakage is found, stop using the machine and have it repaired immediately.
•Note that failing to do so may result in the engine catching on fire.
IMPORTANT
•Before starting operation, always make sure to check if the muffler is properly held by three bolts to the cyl- inder. (Fastening Torque : 8~12 N·m)
•Even if one bolt out of three bolts is loose, the muffler may get loose during operation which may result in engine catching on fire.
PROCEDURES TO BE PERFORMED AFTER EVERY 100 HOURS OF USE
1.Remove the muffler, insert a screwdriver into the vent, and wipe away any carbon buildup. Wipe away any carbon buildup on the muffler exhaust vent and cylin- der exhaust port at the same time.
2.Tighten all screws, bolts, and fittings.
3.Check to see if any oil or grease has worked its way in between the clutch lining and drum, and if it has, wipe it away using
AIR INLET NET
IMPORTANT
•Blowing air is taken in from the air inlet net. When air flow has dropped down during operation, stop the engine and inspect the air inlet net for blocking by obstacles.
•Note that failure to remove any such obstacles may result in the engine becoming overheated and dam- aged.
WARNING
Never use the machine without the net of the ma- chine. Before each use, check that the net is at- tached in place and is free from any damage.
