Makita USA, Inc will furnish with each new engine written instructions for the maintenance and use of the engine
by the owner.

services are performed at the times when recommended. Makita USA, Inc will not deny a warranty claim solely
because you have no record of maintenance; however, Makita USA, Inc may deny a warranty claim if your
failure to perform required maintenance resulted in the failure of warranted part. The proof, which you maintain,
