The muffler gets very hot during and
after use. This also applies during idling.
Be aware of the fire hazard, especially
when working near flammable
substances and/or vapours.
• The muffler is designed to keep noise levels to a
minimum and to direct exhaust fumes away from the

• Check regularly that the muffler is complete and
secured correctly.
