Engine Identication Numbers
When ordering parts, or in any communication
involving an engine, always give the Model,
Specication, and Serial Numbers of the engine.
The engine identication numbers appear on a decal
(or decals) axed to the engine shrouding. Include
leer suxes, if there are any.
Emission Compliance Period
The Emission Compliance Period referred to on the
Emission Control or Air Index label indicates the
number of operating hours for which the engine has
been shown to meet Federal and CARB emission
requirements. The following table provides the
Engine Compliance Period (in hours) associated with
the category descriptor which may be found on the
certication label.
Refer to certication label for engine displacement.
Exhaust Emission Control System for models ECV630,
ECV650, ECV680, ECV730, ECV740, ECV749 is EM,
O2S, ECM, MPI for U.S. EPA, California, and Europe.
EPA Category A:1000 hours
CARB Extended:500 hours
Oil Recommendations
Using the proper type and weight of oil in the
crankcase is extremely important. So is checking oil
daily and changing oil regularly. Failure to use the
correct oil, or using dirty oil, causes premature engine
wear and failure.
Oil Type
Use high quality detergent oil of API (American
Petroleum Institute) service class SJ or higher. Select
the viscosity based on the air temperature at the
time of operation as shown in the Recommended
Viscosity Grades table.
