Owner's Warranty Responsibilities
As the small
off-road
engine
owner,
you
are responsible
for the performance
of
the required
maintenance
listed
in your
Operating
and Maintenance
Instructions.
Sears
recommends
that
you
retain
all
your
receipts
covering
maintenance
on
your
small
off-road
engine,
but
Sears
cannot
deny
warranty
solely for the lack
of receipts
or for your failure to ensure
the
performance
of
all
scheduled
maintenance.
As the small
off-road
engine
owner,
you
should
however
be aware that Sears may
deny you warranty
coverage
if your small
off-road
engine
or a part has failed due to
abuse,
neglect,
improper
maintenance
or
unapproved
modifications.
You are responsible
for presenting
your
small
off-road
engine
to an Authorized
Sears
Service
Dealer
as
soon
as
a
problem
exists.
The undisputed
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,
you
should
contact
a
Sears
Service
Representative
at 1-800-469-4663.
The
emission
warranty
is a
defects
warranty.
Defects
are judged
on normal
engine
performance.
The warranty
is not
related
to an in-use emission
test.
