SPARK ARRESTER

WARNING

Failure to heed the following warnings while servicing the spark arrester could

result in serious injury or death.

• Do not perform service on the spark arrester while the system is hot.

Exhaust system temperatures can reach 1000° F. Allow components to cool

sufficiently before proceeding.

• Remove any combustible materials from the area.

• Wear eye protection and gloves.

• Do not stand behind or in front of the vehicle while purging.

• Never run the engine in an enclosed area. Exhaust contains poisonous

carbon monoxide gas that can cause loss of consciousness or death in a

very short time.

• Never operate without the spark arrestor.

• Never go under the vehicle while it's inclined.

Use the following procedure to periodically purge accumulated carbon from the

exhaust pipe.

1. Remove the arrester clean-out plug located on the bottom of the muffler.

2. Place the transmission in PARK.

3. Start the engine.

4. Purge accumulated carbon from the system by momentarily revving the

engine several times.

5. If carbon is expelled, cover or plug the exhaust outlet and rap on the pipe

around the clean-out plug while revving the engine several more times.

6. If particles are still suspected to be in the muffler, elevate the rear of the

vehicle one foot higher than the front. Block the wheels.

7. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until no more particles are expelled when the engine is

revved.

8. Stop the engine. Allow the arrester to cool.

9. Reinstall the arrester plug and remove the outlet cover or plug.

BRAKES

The front and rear brakes are hydraulic disc type brakes. Press down on the

brake pedal to engage the brakes.

BRAKE FLUID

Inspect the brake system routinely. Inspect the level of the brake fluid before

each operation.
