Manufacturer's Warranty
Responsibilities
This emissions control system is
warranted for two years in California. If
any emissions-related part on your
equipment is defective, the part will be
repaired or replaced by STIHL
Incorporated free of charge.
Owner's Warranty Responsibilities
As the small off-road equipment engine
owner, you are responsible for
performance of the required
maintenance listed in your instruction
manual. STIHL Incorporated
recommends that you retain all receipts
covering maintenance on your small off-
road equipment engine, but STIHL
Incorporated cannot deny warranty
solely for the lack of receipts or your
failure to ensure the performance of all
scheduled maintenance.
As the small off-road equipment engine
owner, you should however be aware
that STIHL Incorporated may deny you
warranty coverage if your small off-road
equipment engine or a part has failed
due to abuse, neglect, or improper
maintenance or unapproved
modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your
small off-road equipment engine to a
STIHL servicing dealer as soon as the
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,
please contact a STIHL customer
service representative at 1-800-467-
8445 or you can write to

Coverage by STIHL Incorporated
STIHL Incorporated warrants to the
ultimate purchaser and each
subsequent purchaser that your small
off-road equipment engine is designed,
built and equipped, at the time of sale, to
meet all applicable emission
regulations.
STIHL Incorporated also warrants to the
initial purchaser and each subsequent
purchaser that your engine is free from
defects in materials and workmanship
which cause the engine to fail to conform
to applicable emission regulations for a
period of two years.
Defects Warranty Period
The warranty periods will begin on the
date the utility equipment engine is
purchased by the initial purchaser. If any
emission-related part on your engine is
defective, the part will be replaced by
STIHL Incorporated at no cost to the
owner.
Add-on or modified parts that are not
exempted by CARB may not be used.
The use of any non-exempted add-on or
modified parts will be grounds for
disallowing a warranty claim. STIHL
Incorporated will not be liable to warrant
failures of warranted parts caused by the
use of a non-exempted add-on or
modified part.
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 in the
Emission Warranty Parts List (see
below) must be warranted for the
warranty period defined in
Subsection COVERAGE BY STIHL
INCORPORATED, see above. If
any such part fails during the period
of warranty coverage, it must be
repaired or replaced by the
manufacturer 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 the Emission Warranty
Parts List (see below) must be
warranted for the warranty period
defined in Subsection COVERAGE
BY STIHL INCORPORATED, see
above. 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 the
Emission Warranty Parts List (see
below) must be warranted for the
period of time prior to the first
scheduled replacement point for
