Engine Exhaust Gas

(Carbon Monoxide) is DEADLY!

The best protection against carbon monoxide inhalation is a regular inspection of the complete

exhaust system. If you notice a change in the sound or appearance of exhaust system, shut the unit

down immediately and have it inspected and repaired at once by a competent mechanic.

Before starting work on the engine, disconnect the battery to prevent inadvertent starting of the

engine.

(1)

Disconnect power.

(2)

Open left side access door.

b. Inspection.

(1)

If engine has been running let exhaust cool.

(2)

Check to see that all parts are in place and that hardware is not loose or missing.

(3)

Inspect entire system for excessive rust, obvious damage, loose connections and holes of any type that

would cause leakage.

c. Replacement.

With the exception of the exhaust manifold all parts of the exhaust system are easily replaced. See figure 4-

28 and remove any clamps and attaching hardware from the part to be replaced. Carefully disconnect it from its mating

part or parts and remove it from the unit.

When it is necessary to remove the exhaust manifold the air cleaner and the scissor choke (see paragraph 4-

63 for choke removal, adjustment and installation.) must be removed prior to removing the manifold.
