U. S. EPA EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT

YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Cub Cadet Corporation and the engine manufacturer for this equipment, Ishikawajima Shibaura Machinery Co., Ltd. (ISM), are pleased to explain the federal emission control systems warranty on your engine.

In the U. S. (exclude the state of California), new 1997 and later model year engines must be designed, built, and equipped, at the time of sale, to meet the EPA regulations for small nonroad engines. The engine must be free from defects in materials and workmanship during the period of warranty coverage (see PERIOD OF WARRANTY COVERAGE below). ISM must warrant the emission control system on your engine for that period provided there has been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your engine.

Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor and the ignition system (see EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY PARTS LIST below).

Where a warrantable condition exists, Cub Cadet Corporation will repair your engine at no cost to you, including diagnosis, parts, and labor, on behalf of ISM. While ISM is ultimately responsible for this warranty, Cub Cadet Corporation has agreed to carry out ISM’s warranty repair responsibilities, and Cub Cadet Corporation should be your primary contact for emission-related warranty service.

PERIOD OF WARRANTY COVERAGE

1997 and later utility and small nonroad engines are warranted for two years. If any emission-related part on your engine is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by Cub Cadet Commercial on behalf of ISM.

OWNER’S RESPONSIBILITIES

(a)As the engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your Operator’s Manual. Cub Cadet Commercial and ISM recommend that you retain the original purchase documentation and all receipts covering maintenance on your engine, but Cub Cadet Commercial and ISM cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.

(b)As the engine owner, you should be aware, however, that Cub Cadet Commercial and ISM may deny you warranty coverage if your engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.

(c)You are responsible for presenting your engine to an authorized Cub Cadet Corporation servicing facility 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, call Cub Cadet Corporation at 330-273- 4550. You may also contact ISM’s representative at 1-916-431-6677.

WARRANTY STATEMENT

The warranty period referred to above begins on the date the equipment (or engine if sold separately) is first soled to a retail purchaser.

ISM warrants to the initial retail purchaser and each subsequent owner that this engine is designed, built, and equipped to conform at the time of initial sale to all applicable regulations of EPA, and that the engine is free of defects in materials and workmanship that would cause it to fail to conform with EPA regulations during its warranty period.

For the parts listed under EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY PARTS LIST below, an authorized Cub Cadet Commer- cial servicing facility will, at no cost to you, make the necessary diagnosis, repair, or replacement of any defective part to ensure that the engine complies with applicable EPA regulations.

Any warranted part which is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance, or which is scheduled only for regular inspection, is warranted for the warranty period. Any part repaired or replacement part installed under this warranty shall be warranted for the remainder of the warranty period.

Another highlight of the ST series is the Cub Cadet's patented Intuitive Control System. This system allows users to easily adjust the speed, direction, and chute angles with minimal effort. With multiple forward and reverse speeds, users can navigate through varying snow conditions and terrain seamlessly.

The composite poly chute is another great feature, designed to provide enhanced throwing distance and prevent clogging. This innovative chute design helps direct snow exactly where users want it, saving time and effort when clearing driveways and walkways.

Additionally, the ST series snow blowers come with oversized tires that offer enhanced traction, allowing for better stability and maneuverability on slippery surfaces. The machines are also equipped with heated hand grips, ensuring comfort in extremely cold conditions.

Built with a strong, durable frame, these snow blowers are constructed to withstand the rigors of winter use. The reinforced housing provides additional protection against wear and tear, making the ST series reliable over years of heavy use.

In summary, the Cub Cadet ST26, ST23, and ST35 snow blowers present an array of advanced features and technologies.
