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 6 mm flange bolts from the muffler protector, and
remove the muffler protector.

Remove the special screws from the spark arrester and remove the
spark arrester from the muffler.
