COVERAGE. Kawasaki warrants to the initial owner and each subsequent purchaser that the small off-road
engine is free from defects in material and workmanship which cause a failure of a warranted part for a period of
two years. Kawasaki is liable for damages to other engine components caused by the failure of a warranted part
still under warranty. The 1995 and later small off-road engines are warranted for two years in California. In all
other states, 1997 and later model year small off-road engines are warranted for two years. If any emission-
related part on your engine is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by Kawasaki. This warranty time
period shall begin on the date the small off-road engine is delivered to the initial purchaser, or on the date the
small off-road engine is first placed in service.
Warranty defects shall be remedied during customary business hours at any authorized Kawasaki small off-road
engine dealer located within the United States of America. Any manufacturer-approved replacement part may be
used in the performance of any warranty maintenance or repairs on emission-related parts, and must be provided
without charge to the owner if the part is still under warranty. Any part or parts replaced under this warranty shall
become the property of Kawasaki.
The emission related warranted parts are specifically defined by the California Air Resources Board's Emission
Warranty Parts List. (EPA's regulations do not include a parts list, but EPA considers emission-related parts to
include all parts listed here.) These warranted parts are: carburetor and internal parts, spark advance/retard
system, cold start enrichment system, magneto or electronic ignition system, catalytic converter, intake manifold,
exhaust manifold, air cleaner element, and spark plugs if failure occurs prior to the first required scheduled
replacement, hoses, clamps, fittings, gaskets, sealing devices, mounting hardware and tubing used directly in
these parts.
Since emission related parts may vary slightly from model to model, certain models may not contain all of these
parts and certain models may contain functionally equivalent parts.
2.
LIMITATIONS. This Emission Control Systems Warranty shall not cover any of the following:
(a) Repair or replacement required as a result of (i) misuse or neglect, (ii) lack of required maintenance, (iii)
repairs improperly performed or replacements improperly installed, (iv) use of replacement parts or
accessories not conforming to Kawasaki specifications which adversely affect performance and/or durability,
(v) alterations or modifications not recommended or approved in writing by KawasakL
