Replacement Parts and Accessories
The parts making up the emission control system have been specifically approved and certified by
the regulatory agencies. Replacement parts supplied by Alpha have been manufactured to the same
production standard as the original parts. The use of replacement parts or accessories which are not
designed by Alpha may affect the engine emission performance. The manufacturers of replacement parts
and accessories have the responsibility to guarantee that their replacement products will not adversely
affect emission performance.
Maintenance
Maintain the generator according to the maintenance schedule in
Section 4.2, Maintenance Schedule.
Service items more frequently when used in dusty areas, or under conditions of high load, temperature,
and humidity.
Air Quality Index
CARB requires that an air quality index label be attached to every certified engine showing the engine
emission information for the emission duration period. The label is provided for the user to compare
the emission performance of different engines. The lower the air index, the better the engine emission
performance. The description of durability is helpful for the user to learn the engine emission duration
period and the service life of emission control system. Refer to the warranty section of this Owner’s Manual
for more information.
The air quality index label is designed to be permanently affixed to the generator and removal should not
be attempted.
The generator has an engine that has been approved by the California Air Resources Board. Other than
the tune up procedures specified in the maintenance section, no additional maintenance is required.
The emission control system has the following components:
1. Fuel System: The fuel tank, cap, indicator and hoses are specially designed and constructed to not
allow fuel vapors to permeate and be released to the atmosphere.
2. A carbon activated canister collects gasoline vapors from the fuel tank and returns them to the
combustion chamber for burning.
3. A catalyst is built into the muffler to further treat the engine exhaust.
4. A secondary air injection valve adds combustion air to ignite unburned fuel in the exhaust.
Contact Alpha to obtain the correct replacement parts and service on this system.
