3.5. EPA/CARB-type plates and
fuel label
There are two EPA/CARB- type plates applied for
the identification of the engine. The type plates
are placed on the crankcase (chapt. 2).
They include the following emission control in-
formation (Figure 8a):
Label 1/2
8a
➀ EPA / CARB - Engine Family Number
➁ engine type / spec. (only for special
equipment) /Fuel Delivery Timing
➂ engine number
(also stamped on crankcase, Fig. 9)
➃ max. engine rated speed
➄ build date
➅ displacement
➆ rated power
➇ “constant speed only” (if requested)
➈ “variable speed” (if requested)
Every engine is equipped with an additional
loose engine type plate. If the original type
plate on the engine is not readily visible after
the engine is installed in the equipment then
the second loose type plate must be attached
on the equipment in such a manner that it is
readily visible to an average person.

For any offer as well as spare parts orders it is
necessary to mention the following data (also
see spare parts list, page 1):
➁ engine type / spec.
(only for special equipment)
➂ engine number
➃ max. engine rated speed
The layout is identical for constant-speed and
variable speed application.
Attention:
If the engine was certified for constant-speed
application and shall be used so, the field "con-
stant-speed only" is marked with “X”.
If the engine was certified for variable speed ap-
plication and shall be used so, the field "variable
speed" is marked with “X”.
Always install the engine for its intended applica-
tion in order to comply with EPA and CARB
emission regulation requirements.
