EMISSION CONTROL INFORMATION To protect the environment in which we all live, Kawasaki has incorporated crankcase emission (1) and exhaust emission (2) control systems (EM) in compliance with applicable regulations of the United States Environmental Protection Agency and California Air Resources Board. 1. Crankcase Emission Control System A sealed-type crankcase emission control system is used to eliminate blow-by gases. The blow-by gases are led to the breather chamber through the crankcase to the intake manifold. Oil is separated from the gases while passing through the inside of the breather chamber from the crankcase, and then returned to the bottom of the crankcase. 2. Exhaust Emission Control System The exhaust emission control system applied to this engine family is engine modifications that consist of a modified injection pump and injection timing characteristics. The fuel system has been calibrated to provide lean air/fuel mixture characteristics, with a suitable air cleaner and exhaust system. A maintenance free injection system provides the most appropriate injection timing and helps maintain a thorough combustion process within the engine which contributes to a reduction of exhaust pollutants entering the atmosphere. Maintenance and Warranty Proper maintenance is necessary to ensure that your engine will continue to have low emission levels. This Owner's Manual contains those maintenance recommendations for your engine. Those items identified by the Periodic Maintenance Chart are necessary to ensure compliance with the applicable standards. As the owner of the Mule, you have the responsibility to make sure that the recommended maintenance is carried out according to the instructions in this Owner's Manual at your own expense. You should keep a maintenance record for your vehicle. To assist you in keeping this record, we have provided space at the end of this manual where an authorized Kawasaki dealer, or someone equally competent, can record the maintenance. You should also retain copies of maintenance work orders, bills, etc., as verification of this maintenance.
