Honda GCV170 Manuel De L'utilisateur page 13

Tampering with or altering the emission control system may increase
emissions beyond the legal limit. Among those acts that constitute
tampering are:
• Removal or alteration of any part of the intake, fuel, or exhaust
systems.
• Altering or defeating the governor linkage or speed-adjusting
mechanism to cause the engine to operate outside its design
parameters.
Problems That May Affect Emissions
If you are aware of any of the following symptoms, have your engine
inspected and repaired by your servicing dealer.
• Hard starting or stalling after starting.
• Rough idle.
• Misfiring or backfiring under load.
• Afterburning (backfiring).
• Black exhaust smoke or high fuel consumption.
Replacement Parts
The emissions control systems on your new Honda engine were
designed, built, and certified to conform with EPA, California, and
Canadian emissions regulations. We recommend the use of Honda
Genuine 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. Honda cannot deny coverage under the emission
warranty solely for the use of non-Honda replacement parts or service
performed at a location other than an authorized Honda dealership;
you may use comparable EPA certified parts, and have service
performed at non-Honda locations. However, the use of replacement
parts that are not of the original design and quality may impair the
effectiveness of your emissions control system.
A manufacturer of an aftermarket part assumes the responsibility that
the part will not adversely affect emission performance. The
manufacturer or rebuilder of the part must certify that use of the part
will not result in a failure of the engine to comply with emission
regulations.
Maintenance
As the power equipment engine owner, you are responsible for
completing all required maintenance listed in your owner's manual.
Honda recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance
on your power equipment engine, but Honda cannot deny warranty
coverage solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure
that all scheduled maintenance has been completed.
Follow the maintenance schedule on
schedule is based on the assumption that your machine will be used
for its designed purpose. Sustained high-load or high-temperature
operation, or use in unusually wet or dusty conditions, will require
more frequent service.
Air Index
An Air Index Information hang tag/label is applied to engines certified
to an emission durability time period in accordance with the
requirements of the California Air Resources Board.
The bar graph is intended to provide you, our customer, the ability to
compare the emissions performance of available engines. The lower
the Air Index, the less pollution.
The durability description is intended to provide you with information
relating the engine's emission durability period. The descriptive term
indicates the useful life period for the engine's emission control
system. See your EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY
(page 18) for additional information.

The power rating of the engine indicated in this document is the net
power output tested on a production engine for the engine model and
measured in accordance with SAE J1349 at 3,600 rpm (Net Power)
and at 2,500 rpm (Max. Net Torque). Mass production engines may
vary from this value.
Actual power output for the engine installed in the final machine will
vary depending on numerous factors, including the operating speed of
the engine in application, environmental conditions, maintenance, and
other variables.
***
Fuel consumption calculated using fuel with 10% ethanol (E10).
Actual consumption will vary, depending on the type of fuel used and
