Laws Pertaining to Spark Arresters

State Health Safety Codes and Public Resources Codes specify that in cer-
tain locations spark arresters be used on internal combustion engines that
use hydrocarbon fuels. A spark arrester is a device designed to prevent acci-
dental discharge of sparks or flames from the engine exhaust. Spark ar-
resters are qualified and rated by the United States Forest Service for this
purpose. In order to comply with local laws regarding spark arresters, consult
the engine distributor or the local Health and Safety Administrator.
