under California law and under
the laws of several other states,
you are not permitted to operate
an internal combustion engine
using hydrocarbon fuels on any
forest covered, brush covered
or grass covered land or on land
covered with grain, hay or other flammable agricultural
crops, without an engine spark arrester in continuous ef-
fective working order.
The engine on your power equipment, like most outdoor
power equipment, is an internal combustion engine that
burns gasoline (a hydrocarbon fuel). Therefore, your
power equipment must be equipped with a spark arrester
muffler in continuous effective working order. The spark
arrester must be attached to the engine exhaust system
in such a manner that flames or heat from the system will
not ignite flammable material.
Failure of the owner/operator of the equipment to comply
with this regulation is a misdemeanor under California law
and may also be a violation of other state and/or federal
regulations, laws, ordinances, or codes. Contact your lo-
cal fire marshal or forest service for specific information
about which regulations apply in your area.
The standard muffler installed on the engine is not
equipped with a spark arrester. one must be added
before using this machine in an area where a spark
arrester is required by law. Contact the local authorities
if these laws apply to you. See your authorized engine
dealer for spark arrester options.
