Briggs & Stratton Emissions Warranty
U.S. EPA, and Briggs & Stratton Corporation Emissions Control
Warranty Statement for Emergency Standby Engines - Your
Warranty Rights and Obligations
General Information
The U.S. EPA, and Briggs & Stratton (B&S) are pleased to explain the emissions control
system warranty on your Model Year 2017-2019 and later engine / equipment. In the U.S.,
new Emergency Standby Engines must be designed, built, and equipped to meet stringent
emission standards. Engines less than 25 Hp must meet requirements of 40 CFR Part
1054. Engines greater than 25 Hp and less than 130 Hp must meet requirements of 40
CFR Part 1048. B&S must warrant the emissions control system on your engine / equipment.
See Definition of appropriate use of Emergency Standby below.
The emission-related warranty covers all components whose failure would increase an
engine's non-evaporative emissions of any regulated pollutant referenced below.
Manufacturer's Warranty Coverage:
Briggs & Stratton warrants that the engine is free from defects in material and workmanship,
and is also designed, built, and equipped to conform to applicable regulations under Section
213 of the Clean Air Act, from the time the engine is sold, until the expiration of its warranty
period.
This warranty applies to all emission related engine components whose failure would cause
engine exhaust emissions to be out of EPA compliance. Further, this warranty also applies
to other engine components damaged due to the failure of any of these emissions related
components.
If a warrantable emissions related component on your engine is defective, the part will be
repaired or replaced by B&S at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts, and labor.
Warranty coverage period is four years from date of original purchase, and is offered to
the original purchaser and each subsequent purchaser so long as Owner's Warranty
Responsibilities are adhered to.
Owner's Warranty Responsibilities:
Warranty claims shall be filed according to the provisions of the Briggs & Stratton
Warranty Policy.
An engine may not be warrantable if subjected to abuse, misuse, neglect, improper
maintenance, unapproved modifications, accidents not caused by Briggs & Stratton
engines or equipment, or by acts of God.
Only those engines used as an Emergency Stationary Engine, as defined below, are
warrantable.
You are responsible for presenting your engine / equipment to a B&S distribution
center, servicing dealer, or other equivalent entity, as applicable, as soon as a problem
exists. The 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 B&S at 1-800-444-7774 or
BRIGGSandSTRATTON.COM.
If any components not scheduled for maintenance is repaired or replaced under this
warranty, the new part will be warranted only for the remaining warranty period.
If a warrantable component scheduled for maintenance fails prior to its first scheduled
replacement, the part will be repaired or replaced by B&S at no charge to the owner.
Any such component is only warrantable until the originally scheduled maintenance
period has expired.
Add on or modified parts that are not exempted by the EPA may not be used. The
use of any non-exempted add on or modified parts by the owner will be grounds for
disallowing a warranty claim. The manufacturer will not be liable to warrant failures
or warranted parts caused by the use of a non-exempted add on or modified part.
Emergency Stationary Engine Definition
An Emergency Stationary Engine is defined as any stationary internal combustion engine
whose operation is limited to emergency situations and required testing and maintenance.
Examples include stationary engines used to produce power for critical networks or
equipment (including power supplied to portions of a facility) when electric power from the
local utility (or the normal power source, if the facility runs on its own power production) is
interrupted, or stationary engines used to pump water in the case of fire or flood, etc.
Stationary engines used for peak shaving are not considered emergency stationary engines.
Stationary engines used to supply power to an electric grid or that supply power as part
of a financial arrangement with another entity are not considered to be emergency engines.
Emergency stationary ICE may be operated for the purpose of maintenance checks and
readiness testing, provided that the tests are recommended by Federal, State or local
government, the manufacturer, the vendor, or the insurance company associated with the
engine. Maintenance checks and readiness testing of such units is limited to 100 hours
per year. There is no time limit on the use of emergency stationary engines in emergency
situations. The owner or operator may petition the Administrator for approval of additional
hours to be used for maintenance checks and readiness testing, but a petition is not required
if the owner or operator maintains records indicating that Federal, State, or local standards
require maintenance and testing of emergency ICE beyond 100 hours per year. Emergency
stationary ICE may operate up to 50 hours per year in non-emergency situations, but those
50 hours are counted towards the 100 hours per year provided for maintenance and testing.
The 50 hours per year for non-emergency situations cannot be used for peak shaving or
to generate income for a facility to supply power to an electric grid or otherwise supply
power as part of a financial arrangement with another entity. For owners and operators of
emergency engines, any operation other than emergency operation, maintenance and
testing, and operation in non-emergency situations for 50 hours per year, as permitted
above is prohibited.
