Diesel engine exhaust and some of its

California to cause cancer, birth defects,
or other reproductive harm.
OPTIONAL SPARK ARRESTER
In some places a spark arrester muffler must be used because of local, state or federal regulations. The spark arrester
available from your local Toro Distributor is approved by the United States Department of Agriculture and the United
States Forest Service. If a spark arrestor muffler is required, order the following part from your Authorized Toro
Distributor:
(1) 94-5637 Spark Arrestor Muffler
When the mower is used or operated on any California forest, brush or grass covered land, a properly operating
spark arrester must be attached to the muffler. The operator is violating state law, Section 442 Public Resources
Code if a spark arrester is not used.
Whenever you have questions or need service, contact your local authorized Toro Distributor. In addition to having a
complete line of accessories and professional turf care service technicians, the distributor has a complete line of
genuine TORO replacement parts to keep your machine operating properly. Keep your TORO all TORO. Buy genuine
TORO parts and accessories.
