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 STANLEY engine within the emission 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 STANLEY engine were designed, built, and certified to conform with EPA regulations. We recommend the use of genuine
STANLEY 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 [e-mail] .
