EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY

Emission Control System Warranty (“ECS Warranty”) for 1995 and later model year California small off-road engines (for other states, 1997 and later model year engines):

A. APPLICABILITY: This warranty shall apply to 1995 and later model year California small off-road engines (for other states, 1997 and later model year engines). The ECS Warranty Period shall begin on the date the new engine or equipment is delivered to its original, end-use purchaser, and shall continue for 24 consecutive months thereafter.

B. GENERAL EMISSIONS WARRANTY COVERAGE: TecumsehPower Company warrants to the original, end-use purchaser of the new engine or equipment and to each subsequent purchaser that each of its small off-road engines is:

1.Designed, built and equipped so as to conform with all applicable regulations adopted by the Air Resources Board pursuant to its authority in Chapters 1 and 2, Part 5, Division 26 of the Health and Safety Code, and

2.Free from defects in materials and workmanship which, at any time during the ECS Warranty Period, will cause a warranted emissions-related part to fail to be identical in all material respects to the part as described in the engine manufacturer’s application for certification.

C.THE ECS WARRANTY ONLY PERTAINS TO EMISSION- RELATED PARTS ON YOUR ENGINE AS FOLLOWS:

1.Any warranted, emissions-related parts which are not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the Operator’s Manual shall be warranted for the ECS Warranty Period. If any such part fails during the ECS Warranty Period, it shall be repaired or replaced by TecumsehPower Company according to Subsection 4 below. Any such part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty shall be warranted for any remainder of the ECS Warranty Period.

2.Any warranted, emissions-related part which is scheduled only for regular inspection as specified in the Operator’s Manual shall be warranted for the ECS Warranty Period. A statement in such written instructions to the effect of “repair or replace as necessary”, shall not reduce the ECS Warranty Period. Any such part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty shall be warranted for the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period.

3.Any warranted, emissions-related part which is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the Operator’s Manual, shall be warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part. If the part fails prior to the first scheduled replacement, the part shall be repaired or replaced by TecumsehPower Company according to Subsection 4 below. Any such emissions-related part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty, shall be warranted for the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for such emissions-related part.

4.Repair or replacement of any warranted, emissions- related part under this ECS Warranty shall be performed at no charge to the owner at a TecumsehPower Authorized Service Outlet.

5.The owner shall not be charged for diagnostic labor which leads to the determination that a part covered by the ECS Warranty is in fact defective, provided that such diagnostic work is performed at a TecumsehPower Authorized Service Outlet.

6.TecumsehPower Company shall be liable for damages to other original engine components or approved modifications proximately caused by a failure under warranty of an emission-related part covered by the ECS Warranty.

7.Throughout the ECS Warranty Period, TecumsehPower Company shall maintain a supply of warranted emission- related parts sufficient to meet the expected demand for such emission-related parts.

8.Any TecumsehPower Company authorized and approved emission-related replacement part may be used in the performance of any ECS Warranty maintenance or repair and will be provided without charge to the owner. Such use shall not reduce TecumsehPower Company ECS Warranty obligations.

9.Unapproved add-on or modified parts may not be used to modify or repair a TecumsehPower engine. Such use voids this ECS Warranty and shall be sufficient grounds for disallowing an ECS Warranty claim. TecumsehPower Company shall not be liable hereunder for failures of any warranted parts of a TecumsehPower engine caused by the use of such an unapproved add-on or modified part.
