WARRANTY REGISTRATION IS NOT NECESSARY TO OBTAIN WARRANTY ON GENERAC PORTABLE PRODUCTS EQUIPMENT. SAVE YOUR PROOF OF PURCHASE RECEIPT.

About your equipment warranty:
Generac Portable Products welcomes warranty repair and apologizes to you for being inconvenienced. Any Authorized Service Dealer may perform warranty repairs. Most warranty repairs are handled routinely, but sometimes requests for warranty service may not be appropriate. For example, warranty would not apply if equipment damage occurred because of misuse, lack of routine maintenance, shipping, handling, warehousing or improper installation. Similarly, warranty is void if the serial number of the equipment has been removed or the equipment has been altered or modified.
If a customer differs with the decision of the Service Dealer, an investigation will be made to determine whether the warranty applies. Ask the Service Dealer to submit all supporting facts to its Distributor for review. If the Distributor decides that the claim is justified, the customer will be fully reimbursed for those items that are defective. To avoid misunderstandings that might occur between the customer and the Dealer, listed below are some of the causes of equipment failure that the warranty does not cover:
Normal wear:
Outdoor Power Equipment, like all mechanical devices, needs periodic parts, service and replacement to perform well. This warranty does not cover repair when normal use has exhausted the life of a part or the equipment.
Installation and Maintenance:
This warranty does not apply to equipment or parts that have been subjected to improper or unauthorized installation or alteration, misuse, negligence, accident, overloading, overspeeding, improper maintenance, repair or storage so as, in Generac Portable Products' judgment, to adversely affect its performance and reliability. This warranty also does not cover normal maintenance such as adjustments, fuel system cleaning and obstruction (due to chemical, dirt, carbon or lime, etc.).
Other Exclusions:
Also excluded from this warranty are wear items such as quick couplers, oil gauges, belts, o-rings, filters, pump packing, etc., pumps which have been run without water supplied or damage or malfunctions resulting from accidents, abuse, modifications, alterations, or improper servicing or freezing or chemical deterioration.
Warranty is available only through service dealers authorized by Generac Portable Products. This warranty does not apply to service by any other entity.
