BRIGGS & STRATTON ENGINE OWNER WARRANTY POLICY
Briggs & Stratton Corporation will repair or replace, free of charge, any part(s) of the engine that is defective in material or workmanship
or both. Transportation charges on product submitted for repair or replacement under this warranty must be borne by purchaser. This
warranty is effective for and is subject to the time periods and conditions stated below. For warranty service, find the nearest
Authorized Service Dealer in our dealer locator map at BRIGGSandSTRATTON.com, or by calling 1-800-233-3723, or as listed in
the 'Yellow Pagest'.
There is no other express warranty. Implied warranties, including those of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose,
are limited to one year from purchase, or to the extent permitted by law and and all implied warranties are excluded. Liability
for incidental or consequential damages are excluded to the extent exclusion is permitted by law. Some states or countries do
not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, and some states or countries do not allow the exclusion or limitation of
incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation and exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal
rights and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state and country to country.

** Engines used on Home Standby Generator applications are warranted under consumer use only. This warranty does not apply to
engines on equipment used for prime power in place of a utility. Engines used in competitive racing or on commercial or
rental tracks are not warranted.
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.
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. For
example, 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.
If a customer differs with the decision of the Service Dealer, an
investigation will be made to determine whether the warranty applies.
Ask the Service Dealer to submit all supporting facts to his Distributor
or the Factory for review. If the Distributor or the Factory decides that
the claim is justified, the customer will be fully reimbursed for those
items that are defective. 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.
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.
