MAINTENANCE
Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the
EPA Emission Regulations
emission control devices and systems may be
performed by any marine SI (spark ignition) en-
gine repair establishments or individual.
All new 1999 and more recent Evinrude outboards
manufactured by Bombardier are certified to the
EPA as conforming to the requirements of the reg-
ulations for the control of air pollution from new wa-
tercraft marine spark ignition engines. This
certification is contingent on certain adjustments
being set to factory standards. For this reason, the
factory procedure for servicing the product must be
strictly followed and, whenever practicable, re-
turned to the original intent of the design. The re-
sponsibilities listed above are general and in no
way a complete listing of the rules and regulations
pertaining to the EPA requirements on exhaust
emissions for marine products. For more detailed
information on this subject, you may contact the fol-
lowing locations:
ENGINE EMISSIONS INFORMATION
Manufacturer’s Responsibility
Beginning with 1999 model year engines, manufac-
turers of marine engines must determine the ex-
haust emission levels for each engine horsepower
family and certify these engines with the United
States of America Environmental Protection Agen-
cy (EPA). An emissions control information label,
showing emission levels and engine specifications,
must be placed on each engine at the time of man-
ufacture.

Dealer’s Responsibility
When performing service on all 1999 and more re-
cent Evinrude outboards that carry an emissions
control information label, adjustments must be kept
within published factory specifications.
Replacement or repair of any emission related
component must be executed in a manner that
maintains emission levels within the prescribed cer-
tification standards.
Dealers are not to modify the engine in any manner
that would alter the horsepower or allow emission
levels to exceed their predetermined factory speci-
fications.

Owner Responsibility
The owner/operator is required to have engine
maintenance performed to maintain emission levels
within prescribed certification standards.
EPA INTERNET WEB SITE:
www.epa.gov
The owner/operator is not to, and should not allow
anyone to, modify the engine in any manner that
would alter the horsepower or allow emissions lev-
els to exceed their predetermined factory specifica-
tions.
Tampering with the fuel system to change horse-
power or modify emission levels beyond factory
settings or specifications will void the product war-
ranty.
10-HOUR INSPECTION
After 10 hours of operation, your new engine will be
broken in and its mechanical parts will have seated.
At that time all systems should be checked and any
adjustments needed should be made.
Your DEALER will perform this 10-hour Inspection
at your request and expense (based on local rates),
according to what your engine needs — refer to
En-
gine Maintenance and Inspection Schedule, 10-
Hour Inspection for a partial list.
Follow consistent preventive maintenance by hav-
ing your DEALER check and service your engine
once a year or after each 100 hours of operation,
whichever comes first.
