YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OB-

LIGATIONS: The U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency, California Air Resources Board, Environment Canada and Poulan are pleased to explain the emissions control system warranty on your year 2007 and later small off--road engine. In California, all small off--road engines must be designed, built, and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-- smog standards. Poulan must warrant the emission control system on your small off-- road engine for the periods of time listed be- low provided there has been no abuse, ne- glect, or improper maintenance of your small off--road engine. Your emission control sys- tem includes parts such as the carburetor, the ignition system and the fuel tank (California only). Where a warrantable condition exists, Poulan will repair your small off--road engine engine at no cost to you. Expenses covered under warranty include diagnosis, parts and labor.
