Operation at High Altitude
Grounding
At altitudes over 5,000 feet(1524 meters), a minimum 85 octane gasoline is acceptable. Engine power and generator output will be reduced approximately 3.5% for every 1000 feet (305 m) of elevation above sea level. High altitude may cause hard starting, increased fuel consumption and spark plug fouling. To operate at high altitudes FIRMAN can provide a high
The generator neutral is floating, which means that the AC stator winding is isolated from the grounding fastener and the AC receptacle ground pins. On a floating neutral generator the AC receptacle ground pins are not functional.

FIRMAN POWER EQUIPMENT INC. Emission Control System Warranty
CALIFORNIA AND FEDERAL EXHAUST AND EVAPORATIVE EMISSIONS CONTROL WARRANTY
STATEMENT
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
The California Air Resources Board, US Environmental Protection Agency (“US
EPA”) and FIRMAN POWER EQUIPMENT INC.(FIRMAN) are pleased to explain the
emissions control systems warranty on your 2020-2021 or later Small Off-Road
Engine (“SORE”) and engine powered equipment. In California, new equipment
that use small off-road engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet
the State’s stringent anti-smog standards. FIRMAN must warrant the emissions
control systems on your SORE and engine powered equipment for the periods of
time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect or improper
maintenance of your small off-road engine or equipment leading to the failure
of the emissions control system.
Your emissions control system may include parts such as the carburetor or
fuel-injection system, the ignition system, catalytic converter, fuel tanks,
fuel lines (for liquid fuel and fuel vapors), fuel caps, valves, canisters,
filters, clamps and other associated components. Also included may be hoses,
belts, connectors, and other emission-related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, FIRMAN will repair your SORE and engine
powered equipment at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY COVERAGE:
The exhaust and evaporative emissions control system on your small off-road
engine and engine powered equipment is warranted for two years. If any
emissions-related part on your small off-road engine and engine powered
equipment is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by FIRMAN.
OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the SORE and engine powered equipment owner, you are responsible for the
performance of the required maintenance listed in your owner’s manual. FIRMAN
recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your SORE and
engine powered equipment, but FIRMAN cannot deny warranty coverage solely for
the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of all
scheduled maintenance. As the SORE and engine powered equipment owner, you
should however be aware that FIRMAN may deny you warranty coverage if your
small off-road engine or engine powered equipment or a part has failed due to
abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance or unapproved modifications. You are
responsible for presenting your small off-road engine and engine powered
equipment to a FIRMAN distribution center or service center as soon as the
problem exists. The warranty repairs shall be completed in a reasonable amount
of time, not to exceed 30 days. If you have any questions regarding your
warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact FIRMAN at

FIRMAN Emission Control Defects Warranty Provisions
The warranty period begins on the date the engine/equipment is delivered to an
ultimate purchaser. FIRMAN warrants to the ultimate purchaser and each
subsequent purchaser that the engine is:
Designed, built, and equipped so as to conform with all applicable regulations
adopted by the Air Resources Board and US EPA; and Free from defects in
materials and workmanship that cause the failure of a warranted part to be
identical in all material respects to the part as described in the engine
manufacturers application for certification. The warranty on emissions-related
parts is as follows: (1) Any warranted part that is not scheduled for
replacement as required maintenance in the owner’s manual supplied, is
warranted for the warranty period stated above. If any such part fails during
the period of warranty coverage, the part will be repaired or replaced by
FIRMAN at no charge to the owner. Any such part repaired or replaced under the
warranty will be warranted for the remaining warranty period. (2) Any
warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection in the owner’s
manual supplied, is warranted for the warranty period stated above. Any such
part repaired or replaced under warranty will be warranted for the remaining
warranty period. (3) Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as
required maintenance in the owner’s manual supplied, is warranted for the
period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part.
If the part fails prior to the first scheduled replacement, the part will be
repaired or replaced by FIRMAN at no charge to the owner. Any such part
repaired or replaced under warranty will be warranted for the remainder of the
period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for the part. (4) Repair
or replacement of any warranted part under the warranty must be performed at
no charge to the owner at a warranty station. (5) Notwithstanding the
provisions of Subsection (4) above, warranty services or repairs must be
provided by FIRMAN that are franchised to service the subject engines. (6) The
owner must not be charged for diagnostic labor that leads to the determination
that a warranted part is in fact defective, provided that such diagnostic work
is performed at a warranty station. (7) FIRMAN is liable for damages to other
engine components proximately caused by a failure under warranty of any
warranted part.

(8) Throughout the emissions warranty period defined in Subsection (b)(2),
FIRMAN will maintain a supply of warranted parts sufficient to meet the
expected demand for such parts. (9) Any replacement part may be used in the
performance of any warranty maintenance or repairs and must be provided
without charge to the owner. Such use will not reduce the warranty obligations
of the manufacturer. (10) Add-on or modified parts that are not exempted by
the Air Resources Board may not be used. The use of any non-exempted add-on or
modified parts by the ultimate purchaser will be grounds for disallowing a
warranty claim.
The manufacturer will not be liable to warrant failures of warranted parts
caused by the use of a non-exempted add-on or modified part.
