YOUR WARRANTY
RIGHTS
AND
OBLIGATIONS:
The U.S. Environ-
mental Protection
Agency/California
Air Resources
Board and Sears, Roe-
buck and Co., U.S.A.,
are pleased to
explain the emissions
control system
warranty on your year 2005 and later
small off-road
engine. In California,
all
small off-road
engines must be de-
signed,
built, and equipped to meet
the State's stringent
anti-smog
stan-
dards. Sears must warrant the emis-
sion control system on your small off-
road engine for the periods of time
listed below provided there has been
no abuse, neglect, or improper
main-
tenance of your small off-road
engine.
Your emission
control system includes
parts such as the carburetor
and the
ignition system. Where a warrantable
condition
exists, Sears will repair your
small off-road
engine at no cost to
you. Expenses
covered under warran-
ty include diagnosis,
parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER'S
WARRANTY
COVERAGE:
If any emissions
related
part on your engine (as listed under
Emissions
Control Warranty
Parts
List) is defective
or a defect in the ma-
terials or workmanship
of the engine
causes the failure of such an emission
related part, the part will be repaired or
replaced
by Sears.
OWNER'S
WAR-
RANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the
small off-road
engine owner, you are
responsible
for the performance
of the
required maintenance
listed in your
operator's
manual. Sears recom-
mends that you retain all receipts
cov-
ering maintenance
on your small off-
road engine, but Sears cannot deny
warranty solely for the lack of receipts
or for your failure to ensure the perfor-
mance of all scheduled
maintenance.
As the small off-road
engine owner,
you should be aware that Sears may
deny you warranty
coverage
if your
small off-road
engine or a part of it
has failed due to abuse, neglect,
im-
proper maintenance,
unapproved
modifications,
or the use of parts not
made or approved
by the original
equipment
manufacturer.
You are re-
sponsible
for presenting
your small
off-road
engine to a Sears authorized
repair center as soon as a problem
exists. 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 responsibili-
ties, you should contact your nearest
authorized
service center or call Sears
at 1-800-469-4663.
