Important information This machine has been provided with an EPA-certified engine. Additional information found engine manufacturer‘s notes. WARNING Engine exhaust, some of its constitvents, and certain vehicle components contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproduc- tive harm.
Emission Control System Information Source of Emissions The combustion process produces carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen, and hydrocarbons. Control of hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen is very important because, under certain conditions, they react to form photochemical smog when subjected to sunlight. Carbon monoxide does not react in the same way, but it is toxic.
