3.2.3 EMISSIONS INFORMATION

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and California Air 

Resource Board (CARB) require that your generator comply with 

exhaust and evaporative emission standards. This generator is 

certified to meet the applicable EPA and CARB emission levels. 

Additional information regarding the requirements set by EPA and 

CARB is as follows:
It is important that you follow the maintenance specifications 

provided in this manual to ensure that your engine complies with 

the applicable emission standards for the duration of the engine’s 

life. This engine is certified to operate on gasoline. The emission 

control system on your generator consists of the following:

Fuel System 

•  Air Induction System

• 

 Fuel Tank 

  ~  Intake pipe/manifold

 Fuel Cap 

  ~  Air cleaner

 Carburetor 

• 

Ignition System

 Fuel  Lines 

 

Spark plug

Evaporative Control System    ~  Ignition module

• 

 Carbon  Canister 

• 

Exhaust System

 Vapor  Hoses 

 

Pulse Air Injection Valve

      

 

~  Muffler

The Emissions Compliance Period referred to on the Emissions 

Compliance Label indicates the number of operating hours for 

which the engine has been shown to meet Federal and California 

emission requirements. See the table below to determine the 

compliance period for your generator. The displacement of your 

generator is listed on the Emissions Compliance Label.

3.3 GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

The warranty of the generator does not cover items that have been 

subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To receive full value 

from the warranty, the operator must maintain the generator as 

instructed in this manual.
Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to properly 

maintain the generator.
All adjustments in the Maintenance section of this manual should 

be made at least once each season. Follow the requirements in the 

"Maintenance Schedule".

NOTE:

Once a year replace the spark plug and replace the air filter. 

A new spark plug and clean air filter assure proper fuel-air 

mixture and help the engine run better and last longer.

3.3.1 GENERATOR MAINTENANCE

Generator maintenance consists of keeping the unit clean and dry. 

Operate and store the unit in a clean dry environment where it will 

not be exposed to excessive dust, dirt, moisture or any corrosive 

vapors. Cooling air slots in the generator must not become clogged 

with snow, leaves, or any other foreign material.
Check the cleanliness of the generator frequently and clean when 

dust, dirt, oil, moisture or other foreign substances are visible on 

its exterior surface.

n

 Never insert any object or tool through the air cooling 

slots, even if the engine is not running.
