High Altitude Engine Operation; Air Index - RIDGID RD80701 Manual Del Operador

wARRANTY
When warranty repair is needed, the engine must be brought to an
authorized service dealer or warranty station's place of business
during normal business hours. In all cases, a reasonable time, not
to exceed 30 days, must be allowed for the warranty repair to be
completed after the engine is received by the authorized service
dealer or warranty station.

EMISSION-RELATED PARTS
Only warranted engine replacement parts approved by ROBIN
AMERICA should be used in the performance of any warranty
maintenance or repairs on emission-related parts. If other than
authorized parts are used for maintenance, replacement, or repair
of components affecting emission control, you should assure
yourself that such parts are warranted by their manufacturer to
be equivalent to authorized parts in performance and durability.
ROBIN AMERICA, however, assumes no liability under this warranty
with respect to parts other than authorized parts. The use of non-
authorized replacement parts does not invalidate the warranty on
other components unless the non-authorized parts cause damage
to warranted parts.
PARTS COvERED UNDER ThE CALIFORNIA EMISSIONS
wARRANTY
The repair or replacement of any warranted part otherwise
eligible for warranty coverage may be excluded from such warranty
coverage if ROBIN AMERICA demonstrates that the engine has been
abused, neglected, or improperly maintained, and that such abuse,
neglect, or improper maintenance was the direct cause of the need
for repair
hIGh ALTITUDE ENGINE OPERATION
Please have an authorized Robin America service dealer modify this engine if it is to be run continuously above 5000 feet (1500 meters).
Failure to do so, may result in poor engine performance, spark plug fouling, hard starting, and increased emissions.
Carburetor modification by an authorized Robin America service dealer will improve performance and allow that this engine meets EPA
(Environmental Protection Agency) and California ARB (Air Resources Board) emission standards throughout its useful life.
An engine converted for high altitudes can not be run at 5000 feet or lower. In doing so, the engine will overheat and cause
serious engine damage. Please have an authorized Robin America service dealer restore high altitude modified engines to the original
factory specification before operating below 5000 feet.

AIR INDEX

To show compliance with California emission regulations, a hangtag has been provided displaying the Air Index level and durability period
of this engine.
The Air Index level defines how clean an engine's exhaust is over a period of time. A bar graph scaled from "0" (most clean) to "10" (least
clean) is used to show an engine's Air Index level. A lower Air Index level represents cleaner exhaust from an engine. The period of time
(in hours) that the Air Index level is measured is known as the durability period. Depending on the size of the engine, a selection of time
periods can be used to measure the Air Index level (see below).
