California, United States and Canada Emissions Control
Defects Warranty Statement
The California Air Resources Board (CARB), U.S. EPA and
B&S are pleased to explain the Emissions Control System
Warranty on your small off-road engine (SORE). In
California, new small off-road engines model year 2006 and
later must be designed, built and equipped to meet the
State's stringent anti-smog standards. Elsewhere in the
United States, new non-road, spark-ignition engines certified
for model year 1997 and later must meet similar standards
set forth by the U.S. EPA. B&S must warrant the emissions
control system on your engine for the periods of time listed
below, provided there has been no abuse, neglect or
improper maintenance of your small off-road engine.
Your emissions control system includes parts such as the
carburetor, air cleaner, ignition system, fuel line, muffler and
catalytic converter. Also included may be connectors and
other emissions related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, B&S will repair your
small off-road engine at no cost to you including diagnosis,
parts and labor.

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. B&S recommends
that you retain all your receipts covering maintenance on
your small off-road engine, but B&S 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 B&S 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 B&S 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 B&S Service
Representative at (414) 259-5262.
The emissions warranty is a defects warranty. Defects are
judged on normal engine performance. The warranty is not
related to an in-use emissions test.
