Length of Coverage
For a period of two years from date of original purchase, B&S warrants to the odginal
purchaser and each subsequent purchaser that the engine is designed, built, and
equipped so as to conform with alt applicable regulations adopted by the Air
Resources Board; that it is free from defects in material and workmanship that could
cause the failure of a warranted part; and that it is identical in all material respects to
the engine described in the manufacturer's application for certification. The warranty
period begins on the date the engine is originally purchased.
The warranty on emissions-.related
parts is as follows:
Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required
maintenance
in the owner's manual supplied, is warranted for the warranty
period stated above. If any such part fails during the period of warranty
coverage, the part will be repaired or replaced by B&S at no charge to the

part repaired or replaced under warranty will be warranted for the remaining
warranty period.
Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance

first scheduled replacement
point for that part. If the part fails prior to the first
scheduled replacement, the part wilt be repaired or replaced by B&S at no

warranted for the remainder of the period prior to the first scheduled
replacement point for the part.
Add on or modified parts that are not exempted by the Air Resources Board

not be liable to warrant failures of warranted
parts caused by the use of a non

failure of any warranted emissions parts.
Claims and Coverage Exclusions
Warranty claims shall be filed according to the provisions of the B&S engine

Engines that are certified to meet the California Air Resources Board (CARB) small
off-road Emissions Standard must display information regarding the Emissions Durability
Period and the Air hdex. Briggs & Stratton makes this information available to the
consumer on our emissions labels. The engine emissions label wil_ indicate certification
information.
The Emissions
Durability
Period describes the number of hours of actual running time
for which the engine is certified to be emissions compliant, assuming proper
maintenance in accordance with the Operating & Maintenance Instructions. The
following categories are used:
Moderate:
Engine is certified to be emissions compliant for 125 hours of actual engine running time.
mntermediate:
Engine is certified to be emissions compliant for 250 hours of actual engine running time.
Extended:
Engine is certified to be emissions compliant for 500 hours of actual engine running time.
For example, a typicat walk-behind
_awn mower is used 20 to 25 hours per year.
Therefore,
the Bmiesione
DurabiBity Period of an engine with an intermediate
rating
would equate to 10 to 12 years.
Bnggs & Stratton engines are certified to meet the United States Environmental
Protection Agency (USEPA) Phase 2 emissions standards. For Phase 2 certified
engines, the Emissions Compliance
Period referred to on the Emissions Compliance
label indicates the number of operating hours for which the engine has been shown to
meet Federal emissions requirements.
For engines less than 225 cc displacement.
Category C = 125 hours, Category B = 250 hours, Category A = 500 hours
For engines of 225 cc or more displacement.
Category C = 250 hours, Category B = 500 hours, Category A = 1000 hours
