EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM INFORMATION 

The U.S. and California Clean Air Acts  
EPA and California regulations require all manufacturers to furnish written instructions describing the operation and maintenance of emission control systems. 
The following instructions and procedures must be followed in order to keep the emissions from your DEK engine within the emi ssion standards. Maintenance, 
replacement, or repair of the emission control devices and systems may be performed by any engine repair establishment or individual, using parts that are 
‘‘certified’’ to EPA standards. 
The emission control systems on your DEK engine were designed, built, and certified to conform with EPA regulations. We recommend the use of genuine DEK 
parts whenever you have maintenance done. These original-design replacement parts are manufactured to the same standards as the original parts, so you can 
be confident of their performance. The use of replacement parts that are not of the original design and quality may impair the effectiveness of your emission 
control system.  A manufacturer of an aftermarket part assumes the responsibility that the part will not adversely affect emission performance. The manufacturer 
or re-builder of the part must certify that use of the part will not result in a failure of the engine to comply with emission regulations. 

Emission controls are covered by this warranty for all uses for a period of 2 years from original retail purchase date, this  coverage extends to subsequent owners 
of the product with proof of original purchase. For emissions warranty service call 1-800-393-0668 or e-mail [email protected] .
