EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY

Your Warranty Rights and Obligations

The California Air Resources Board ("CARB") and Generac Portable Products, are pleased to explain the Emission Control System Warranty on your model year 2000 and later small off- road engine (engine). In California, new engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet the State's stringent anti- smog standards. Snapper must warrant the emission control system on your engine for the periods of time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance of your engine.

Your emission control system includes parts such as the carburetor and the ignition system.

Where a warrantable condition exists, Snapper will repair your engine at no cost to you. Expenses covered under warranty include diagnosis, parts, and labor.

Manufacturer's Warranty Coverage

The model year 2000 and later engines are warranted for two years. If any emission related part on your engine (as listed below) is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by Snapper.

Owner's Warranty Responsibilities

As the engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in this owners manual. Snapper recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your engine, but Snapper cannot deny warranty solely due for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.

As the engine owner, you should be aware that Snapper may deny you warranty coverage if your engine or a part of it has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, unapproved modifications, or the use of parts not made or approved by the original equipment manufacturer.

You are responsible for presenting your engine to a Snapper authorized repair center as soon as a problem exists. Warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
