• At high altitude, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture will be too
rich. Performance will decrease and fuel consumption will increase. A
very rich mixture will also foul the spark plug and cause hard starting.
Operation at an altitude that diers from that at which this engine was
certied, for extended periods of time, may increase emissions.
• The fuel system on this Engine or Equipment may be inuenced
by operation at higher altitudes. Proper operation can be ensured
by installing an altitude kit when required. See the table below to
determine when an altitude kit is required. Operating this generator
without the proper altitude kit installed may increase the engine’s
emissions and decrease fuel economy and performance. Kits may
be obtained from any Dealer, and should be installed by a qualied
individual.
