GENERAC POWER SYSTEMS’ THREE-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY

FOR RECREATIONAL VEHICLE GENERATORS

NOTE: ALL UNITS MUST BE INSTALLED BY GENERAC POWER SYSTEMS AUTHORIZED SERVICE FACILITIES. For a period of 3 (three) years or 2,000 (two thousand) hours of operation from the date of original sale, whichever occurs first, Generac Power Systems, Inc. (Generac) will, at its option, repair or replace any part which, upon examination, inspec- tion and testing by Generac or a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Facility, is found to be defective under normal use and service, in accordance with the warranty schedule set forth below. Any equipment that the purchaser/owner claims to be defective must be returned to and examined by the nearest Generac Authorized Warranty Service Facility. All trans- portation costs under the warranty, including return to the factory, are to be borne and prepaid by the purchaser/owner. This warranty applies only to Generac generators sold and rated for “Recreational Vehicle” (RV) applications, as Generac has defined Recreational Vehicle generator applications. This warranty is effective only upon Generac’s receipt, from the original purchaser/owner, of a completed Warranty Registration Card. This card is the only valid registration identification and must be presented at time of request for warranty service. Claims will not be accepted without presentation of the Warranty Registration Card. The factory recommends exercising the unit one half-hour every season.

Generac RV generators manufactured prior to December 31, 1997, DO NOT have a transferable warranty. Generac RV gen- erators manufactured after January 1, 1998, have a transferable warranty to the second owner ONLY for the remainder of the three-year limited warranty. Proof-of-purchase is required and must be presented to a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Facility prior to the performance of any warranty service.

All warranty expense allowances are subject to the conditions defined in Generac’s SUPER SERVICE INFORMATION MANUAL.

THIS WARRANTY SHALL NOT APPLY TO THE FOLLOWING:

Costs of normal maintenance, adjustments, installation and start-up.

Failures caused by any contaminated fuels or oils.

Failures due, but not limited, to normal wear and tear, accident, misuse, abuse, negligence or improper installation. As with all mechanical devices, the GN-Series engines need periodic part(s) service and replacement to perform well. This warranty will not cover repair when normal use has exhausted the life of a part(s) or engine.

Failures caused by any external cause or act of God, such as collision, theft, vandalism, riot or wars, nuclear holocaust, fire, freezing, lightning, earthquake, windstorm, hail, volcanic eruption, water or flood, tornado or hurricane.

Products that are modified or altered in a manner not authorized by Generac in writing.

Any incidental, consequential or indirect damages caused by defects in materials or workmanship, or any delay in repair or replacement of the defective part(s).

Failure due to misapplication.

Telephone, telegraph, teletype or other communication expenses.

Living or travel expenses of person(s) performing service, except as specifically included within the terms of a specific unit warranty period.

Rental equipment used while warranty repairs are being performed.

Overnight freight costs for replacement part(s).

Overtime labor.

Starting batteries, fuses, light bulbs and engine fluids.

THIS WARRANTY IS IN PLACE OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED. SPECIFICALLY, GENERAC MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES AS TO THE MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.

GENERAC’S ONLY LIABILITY SHALL BE THE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF PART(S) AS STATED ABOVE. IN NO EVENT SHALL GENERAC BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF SUCH DAMAGES ARE A DIRECT RESULT OF GENERAC’S NEGLIGENCE. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation may not apply to you. Purchaser/owner agrees to make no claims against Generac based on negligence.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights. You also may have other rights that vary from state to state.
