Warranty Coverage:

METL warrants that the product engine is free from defects in materials and workmanship which cause such engine to fail to conform with the U.S. EPA or State of California emissions standards for small spark-ignited nonroad (off-road) engines – as applicable to your METL product. Small spark-ignited off-road engines manufactured after January 1, 1995 and sold in the State of California and U.S. EPA- certified small spark-ignited nonroad engines manufactured in model year 1997 or later and sold in all of the United States are covered by this Emission Control System Warranty for a period of two years from the date of delivery to the original purchaser. This Emission Control System Warranty is transferable to each subsequent purchaser for the duration of the warranty period. Emission Control System Warranty repairs or replacements will be made without charge for diagnosis, parts or labor. A list of warranted parts is provided below. Normal maintenance items, such as spark plugs, air filters and fuel filters that are included on the list of warranted parts are warranted only up to the first scheduled required replacement interval for such item, as set forth in the Operator’s Manual. If any emission control system part is repaired or replaced under the Emission Control System Warranty, it shall be warranted for the remainder of the applicable warranty period. METL will also repair or replace other engine components damaged by a failure of any part covered by the Emission Con- trol System Warranty during the Emission Control System Warranty Period. Only parts authorized and approved by METL may be used in the performance of any Emission Control System Warranty repairs or replacements and will be provided without charge to the owner. Unapproved, add-on, modified, counterfeit and/or “gray market” parts may not be used to modify or repair the METL engine. If such a part has been used in the repair or maintenance of your engine, and an METL Authorized Service Center determines it is defective or causes a failure of a part covered under the Emission Control System Warranty, your claim for repair of your engine or product may be disallowed. METL shall not be held liable hereunder for failures of any warranted parts caused by the use of such an unapproved, add-on, modified, counterfeit and/or “gray market” part.

How to Obtain Warranty Service:

You must take your power equipment engine or the product on which it is installed, along with evidence of the date of the sale to the original purchaser, at your expense, to any METL Authorized Service Center during its normal business hours. To locate your nearest METL Authorized Service Center, call (800) 737-2112. The product owner shall be responsible for any expenses or charges incurred for service calls or transportation of the product or equipment engine to and from the METL Authorized Service Center, including any and all damages or losses incurred during such transportation or shipment.

Exclusions:

Failures other than those resulting from defects in material or workmanship are not covered by this Emission Control System Warranty. This Emission Control System Warranty does not extend to emission control systems or parts which are affected or damaged by owner abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, misuse, mis-fueling, improper storage, accident and/or collision, the incorporation of, or any use of, any unapproved, add-on, modified, “graymarket” or counterfeit parts, unsuitable attachments, or the unauthorized alteration of any part. This Emission Control System Warranty does not cover the regular replacement of normal maintenance items made in connection with required maintenance services after the item’s first scheduled replacement, as set forth in the Operator’s Manual (e.g. spark plugs, air filters, fuel filters, etc...).

Limitations of Liability:

METL disclaims any responsibility for loss of time or use of the engine, or the equipment in which the engine is installed, transportation, commercial loss, or any other incidental or consequential damage. Any implied warranties are limited to the duration of this written limited warranty. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts and/or do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusions and limitations may not apply to you.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
