SERVICING YOUR HONDA ENGINE
SPARK ARRESTER SERVICE (optional equipment)
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.

muffler and remove the spark arrester.
SIDE-MOUNT MUFFLER TYPE: Remove the
6 mm flange bolts from
the muffler protector and remove the muffler protector. Remove the
