The warranty period begins on the date of purchase by the first retail consumer or commercial end user, and continues for the period of time stated in the table above. "Consumer
use" means personal residential household use by a retail consumer. "Commercial use" means all other uses, including use for commercial, income producing or rental purposes.
Once an engine has experienced commercial use, it shall thereafter be considered as a commercial use engine for purposes of this warranty.
No warranty registration is necessary to obtain warranty on Briggs & Stratton products. Save your proof of purchase receipt. If you do not provide proof of the initial
purchase date at the time warranty service is requested, the manufacturing date of the product will be used to determine the warranty period.
About Your Warranty
Briggs & Stratton welcomes warranty repair and apologizes to you for being
inconvenienced. Any Authorized Service Dealer may perform warranty repairs. Most
warranty repairs are handled routinely, but sometimes requests for warranty service may
not be appropriate. To avoid misunderstanding which might occur between the customer
and the dealer, listed below are some of the causes of engine failure that the warranty
does not cover.
Normal wear: Engines, like all mechanical devices, need periodic parts service and
replacement to perform well. Warranty will not cover repair when normal use has
exhausted the life of a part or an engine. Warranty would not apply if engine damage
occurred because of misuse, lack of routine maintenance, shipping, handling,
warehousing or improper installation. Similarly, warranty is void if the serial number of the
engine has been removed or the engine has been altered or modified.
Improper maintenance: The life of an engine depends upon the conditions under which
it operates, and the care it receives. Some applications, such as tillers, pumps and rotary
mowers, are very often used in dusty or dirty conditions, which can cause what appears
to be premature wear. Such wear, when caused by dirt, dust, spark plug cleaning grit, or
other abrasive material that has entered the engine because of improper maintenance, is
not covered by warranty.
This warranty covers engine related defective material and/or workmanship only,
and not replacement or refund of the equipment to which the engine may be
mounted. Nor does the warranty extend to repairs required because of:
1 Problems caused by parts that are not original Briggs & Stratton parts.
2 Equipment controls or installations that prevent starting, cause unsatisfactory engine
performance, or shorten engine life. (Contact equipment manufacturer.)
3 Leaking carburetors, clogged fuel pipes, sticking valves, or other damage, caused
by using contaminated or stale fuel.
