Your engine is not factory-equipped with a spark arrester. In some
areas, it is illegal to operate an engine without a spark arrester. Check
local laws and regulations. A spark arrester is available from
authorized Honda servicing dealers.
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.
Remove the two 8 mm nuts and remove the muffler from the
cylinder.
Remove the three 4 mm screws from the exhaust deflector, and
remove the deflector.
Remove the four 5 mm screws from the muffler protector and
remove the muffler protector.
Remove the 4 mm screws from the spark arrester, and remove the
spark arrester from the muffler.
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.
Install the spark arrester, muffler protector, exhaust deflector, and
muffler in the reverse order of disassembly.
