Replacement Parts
The emission control systems on your newHonda engine were
designed, built, and certified to conform with EPA andCalifornia
emission regulations. We recommend the use of genuine Honda
parts whenever you have maintenance done. These
original-design replacement parts are manufactured to the same
standards as the original parts, so youcan be confident of their
performance. The use of replacement parts that are not ofthe
original design and quality may impairthe effectiveness of your
emission control system.
A manufacturer of an aftermarket part assumesthe responsibility
that the part will notadversely affect emission performance. The
manufacturer or rebuilder of the part mustcertify that use of the
part will not result in a failure of the engine tocomply with
emission regulations.
Maintenance
Follow the maintenance schedule on page 32.Remember that
this schedule is based on the assumptionthat 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.
