Check exhaust pipes, muffler and mounting for improper attachment,
leaks, cracks, damage or deterioration.

CAUTION:

●

Be sure to use genuine exhaust system parts or equivalents which are specially designed for heat
resistance, corrosion resistance, and shape.

●

Perform the operation with the exhaust system fully cooled down because the system will be hot
