WARRANTY

THE FOLLOWING CALIFORNIA AIR RESOURCES BOARD (CARB) STATEMENT ONLY APPLIES TO MODEL NUMBERS REQUIRED TO MEET THE CARB REQUIREMENTS.

TECHTRONIC INDUSTRIES NORTH AMERICA, INC., LIMITED WARRANTY STATEMENT FOR FEDERAL AND CALIFORNIA EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS NON-ROAD AND SMALL OFF-ROAD ENGINES

YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the California Air Resources Board (CARB), and Techtronic Industries North America, Inc., are pleased to explain the Emissions Control System Warranty on your 2010 model year non-road or small off- road engine. In California, new equipment that uses small off-road engines must be designed, built, and equipped to meet the state’s stringent anti-smog standards. In other states, new 2000 and later model year non-road engines must be designed, built, and equipped at the time of sale to meet the U.S. EPA regulations for small non-road engines. The non-road engine must be free from defects in materials and workmanship which cause it to fail to conform with U.S. EPA standards for the first three years of engine use from the date of sale to the ultimate purchaser. Techtronic Industries North America, Inc., must warrant the emission control system on your non-road or small off-road engine for the period of time listed above provided there has been no abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance of your non-road or small off-road engine.

Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor or fuel injection system, the ignition system, catalytic converters, fuel tanks, valves, filters, clamps, connectors, and other associated components. Also included may be hoses, belts and connectors, and other emission-related assemblies.

Where a warrantable condition exists, Techtronic Industries North America, Inc., will repair your non-road or small off-road engine at no cost to you, including diagno- sis, parts, and labor performed at an authorized service center for RYOBI® brand outdoor products.

MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY COVERAGE:

This product’s emissions control system is warranted for three years. If any emission- related part on your engine is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by Techtronic Industries North America, Inc., free of charge.

OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES

(a)As the non-road or small off-road engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your operator’s manual. Techtronic Industries North America, Inc., recommends that you retain all re- ceipts covering maintenance on your non-road or small off-road engine, but Techtronic Industries North America, Inc., cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance. Any replacement part or service that is equivalent in performance and durability may be used in non-warranty maintenance or repairs, and shall not reduce the warranty obligations of Techtronic Industries North America, Inc.

(b)As the non-road or small off-road engine owner, you should be aware, however, that Techtronic Industries North America, Inc., may deny you warranty coverage if your non-road or small off-road engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, or unapproved modifications.

(c)You are responsible for presenting your non-road or small off-road engine to an authorized service dealer as soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should 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 a Techtronic Industries North America, Inc., Customer Representa- tive at 1-800-860-4050.

DEFECT WARRANTY COVERAGE REQUIREMENTS:

(a)The warranty period begins on the date the engine or equipment is delivered to an ultimate purchaser.

(b)General Emissions Warranty Coverage. Techtronic Industries North America, Inc., warrants to the ultimate purchaser and each subsequent purchaser that your non-road or small off-road engine is designed, built, and equipped at the time of sale to conform with all applicable regulations adopted by the California Air Resources Board or the United States Environmental Protection Agency; and that it is free from defects in materials and workmanship which cause the engine to fail to conform with applicable regulations for a period of three years from the date the non-road or small off-road engine is purchased by the initial purchaser.

(c)The warranty on emissions-related parts will be interpreted as follows: Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required in the Emissions Maintenance Schedule and Warranty Parts List set forth below is warranted for three years. If any such part (including any part that is scheduled only for regular inspection) fails during the period of warranty coverage, it will be repaired or replaced at any RYOBI® Authorized Service Center at no charge. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty will be warranted for the remaining warranty period. A statement to the effect of “repair or replace as necessary” would not reduce the period of war- ranty coverage. Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the Emissions Maintenance Schedule and Warranty Parts List is warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty is warranted for the remainder of the period prior to the first scheduled replacement point, and will be repaired or replaced at any RYOBI® Authorized Service Center for no charge until that replacement point is reached.

Techtronic Industries North America, Inc., shall remedy warranty defects at any authorized RYOBI® Authorized Service Center, including any distribution center that may be franchised to service the subject engines. Any diagnostic work done at a RYOBI® Authorized Service Center shall be free of charge to the owner if such work determines that a warranted part is defective. Any manufacturer-approved or equivalent replacement part may be used for any warranty maintenance or repairs on emission-related parts, and must be provided free of charge to the owner if the part is still under warranty. Techtronic Industries North America, Inc., is liable for damages to other engine components caused by the failure of a warranted part still under warranty.

Add-on or modified parts that are not exempted by the California Air Resource Board may not be used. The use of any non-exempted add-on or modified parts will be grounds for disallowing a warranty claim. Techtronic Industries North America, Inc., will not be liable to warrant failures of warranted parts caused by the use of a non- exempted add-on or modified part.

The California Air Resources Board’s Emission Warranty Parts List specifically defines the emission-related warranted parts. (EPA’s regulations do not include a parts list, but the EPA considers emission-related warranted parts to include all the parts listed below.) Techtronic Industries North America, Inc., will provide any documents that describe its warranty procedures or policies within five days upon request by the California Air Resources Board.
