Look For Relevant Emissions Durability Period and AirIndex Information On Your Engine Emissions Label

Engines that are certified to meet the California Air Resources Board (CARB) "her 2

Emission Standards must display information regarding the Emissions Durability Pe-

riodand the Air Index. Sears, Roebuck and Co., U.S.A. makes this informationavail-

able to the consumer on our emission labels.

The Emissions Durability Period describes the number of hoursof actual running

time for which the engine is certified to be emissions compliant, assuming proper

maintenance inaccordance withthe Operating &Maintenance Instructions.The fol-

lowingcategories are used:

Moderate: Engine iscertified to be emissioncompliant for 125hours of actual

engine running time.

Intermediate: Engine iscertifiedto be emission compliant for 250 hoursof actual

engine runningtime.

Extended: Engineis certifiedto be emissioncompiientfor 500 hoursof actual

engine runningtime.

For example, a typical walk-behind lawn mower is used 20 to 25 hours per year.

Therefore, the Emissions Durability Period of an engine w_ an intermediate

rating wouldequate to 10 to 12 years.

The Air Index isa calculated number describing the relative level of emissions for a

specific engine family.The lower theAir Index, the cleaner the engine.This informa-
