Spark Arrestor

WARNING

Improper service of the spark arrestor could result in serious injury or death.

  • Never operate the vehicle without the spark arrestor.

  • Do not perform service on the spark arrestor while the system is hot. Exhaust system temperatures can reach extreme temperatures. Allow components to cool sufficiently before proceeding.

  • Wear eye protection and gloves while servicing.

Periodically clean the spark arrestor to remove accumulated carbon. A plugged spark arrestor will affect engine performance. Clean daily when driving in mud and water. Replace a cracked or damaged arrestor before operating.

To service spark arrestor:

  1. Turn off engine and allow exhaust system to cool.

  2. Remove the arrestor retaining bolt 1.

  3. Use a non-synthetic brush to clean the arrestor screen. A synthetic brush may melt if components are warm. If necessary, blow debris from the screen with compressed air.

  4. Inspect the screen for wear and damage. Replace a worn or damaged screen.
