STATE AND LOCAL ORDINANCE REQUIREMENTS
Your engine has been provided with a temperature limiting muffler and spark arresting screen which meets
the requirements of California Codes 4442 and 4443. All U.S. Forest Land and the states of California,
Maine, Oregon, and Washington, require by law that many internal combustion engines operated on forest,
brush, and grass-covered areas be equipped with a temperature limiting muffler and spark arresting
screen.
Check with your state and local authorities for regulations pertaining to Temperature Limiting Muffler and
Spark Arresting requirements. If you operate an internal combustion engine in a state or locale where such
regulations exist, you are legally responsible for maintaining the operating condition of these parts.
Failure to do so could subject you to liability or to a fine.
