The California Air Resources Board (CARB), the United States Environ-
mental Protection Agency (EPA) and Chongqing Rato Power Co., Ltd
(RATO), are pleased to explain the emission control system warranty on
your small off-road engine. In the United States and California, new small
off-road engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet the State's
stringent anti-smog standards. RATO must warrant the emission control
system on your small off-road 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 emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor
or fuel injection system, the ignition system, and catalytic converter. Also
included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other emission related
assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, RATO will repair your small off-road
engine at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTy COvERAGE:
Emissions Control System is warranted for two years on small off-road
engine. If any emission related part on your engine is defective, the part
will be repaired or replaced by RATO. RATO provides warranty coverage
for a period of two years.
OWNER'S WARRANTy RESPONSiBiLiTiES:
As the small off-road engine owner, you are responsible for the perfor-
mance of the required maintenance listed in your owner's manual. RATO
recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your
small off-road engine, but RATO 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
RATO may deny you warranty coverage if your small off-road engine or
a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unap-
proved modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your small off-road engine to a RATO
distribution center as soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should
be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.

bilities, you should contact RATO USA, LLC at 1-855-206-5286, E-mail:

dEFECTS WARRANTy REQUiREMENTS:
(a) The warranty period begins on the date the engine or equipment is
delivered to an ultimate purchaser.
(b) General Emissions Warranty Coverage.
RATO warrants to the ultimate purchaser and each subsequent owner
that the engine or equipment is:
(1) Designed, built, and equipped so as to conform with all applicable
regulations adopted by the Air Resources Board and the United
States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S.EPA);
(2) Free from defects in materials and workmanship that causes the
failure of a warranted part for a period of two years.
(c) The warranty on emissions-related parts will be interpreted as follows:
(1) Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as
required maintenance in the written instructions required by sub-
section (d) must be warranted for the warranty period defined in
Subsection (b)(2). If any such part fails during the period of warranty
coverage, it must be repaired or replaced by RATO according to
Subsection (4) below. Any such part repaired or replaced under
the warranty must be warranted for the remaining warranty period.
(2) Any warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection
in the written instructions required by subsection (d) must be
warranted for the warranty period defined in Subsection (b)(2).
A statement in such written instructions to the effect of "repair
or replace as necessary" will not reduce the period of warranty
coverage. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty must
be warranted for the remaining warranty period.
(3) Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as required
maintenance in the written instructions required by subsection (d)
must be warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled
replacement point for that part. If the part fails prior to the first
WARRANTy
scheduled replacement, the part must be repaired or replaced by
RATO according to Subsection (4) below. Any such part repaired
or replaced under warranty must be warranted for the remainder
of the period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for the
part.
(4) Repair or replacement of any warranted part under the warranty
must be performed at no charge to the owner at a warranty sta-
tion.
(5) Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection (4) above, warranty
services or repairs must be provided at all RATO distribution
centers that are franchised to service the subject engines.
(6) The owner must not be charged for diagnostic labor that leads
to the determination that a warranted part is in fact defective,
provided that such diagnostic work is performed at a warranty
station.
(7) RATO is liable for damages to other engine components proxi-
mately caused by a failure under warranty of any warranted part.
(8) Throughout the emissions warranty period defined in Subsection
(b)(2), RATO must maintain a supply of warranted parts sufficient
to meet the expected demand for such parts.
(9) Any replacement part may be used in the performance of any
warranty maintenance or repairs and must be provided without
charge to the owner. Such use will not reduce the warranty obliga-
tions of RATO.
(10) Add-on or modified parts that are not exempted by the Air Re-
sources Board may not be used. The use of any non-exempted
add-on or modified parts will be grounds for disallowing a warranty
claim. RATO will not be liable to warrant failures of warranted parts
caused by the use of a non-exempted add-on or modified part.
(11) RATO issuing the warranty shall provide any documents that de-
scribe that manufacturer's warranty procedures or policies within
five working days of request by the Air Resources Board.
