INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1: Remove factory installed muffler. Retain ALL hardware, gaskets, and heat shield/deflector.
Step 2: Hand-fit deflector to the mounting surface of your Steadfast muffler. You may find that flattening or trimming is required for fitment. The presence of the deflector AND gasket is imperative for clearance on some models (specifically 560/562) as the transfer port cover bosses may interfere with fit/spacing. (Fig. 1-2)

Step 3: Place mounting bolts through muffler and stack your deflector and gaskets in place on the protruding studs. The order in which you place the deflector and gasket is not critical but we do suggest that the gasket be between the muffler and deflector.
Step 4: Loosely start all fasteners to position the muffler on the saw case halves and cylinder BEFORE tightening. Please note the spacers provided are to be placed on the mounting flange and NOT between the muffler and cases. (Fig. 3)

Step 5: Using the factory torque specification or good judgment, tighten all mounting hardware.
Step 6: Use the factory starting procedure and field tuning steps for your saw model.
