manual abstract
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the California Air Resources Board (CARB), and Homelite Consumer Products, Inc., are pleased to explain the Emissions Control System Warranty on your 2010 model year non-road or small off-road engine. In California, new equipment that uses small off-road engines must be designed, built, and equipped to meet the state’s stringent anti-smog standards. In other states, new 2000 and later model year non-road engines must be designed, built, and equipped at the time of sale to meet the U.S. EPA regulations for small non-road engines. The non-road engine must be free from defects in materials and workmanship which cause it to fail to conform with U.S. EPA standards for the first two years of engine use from the date of sale to the ultimate purchaser. Homelite Consumer Products, Inc., must warrant the emission control system on your non-road or small off-road engine for the period of time listed above provided there has been no abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance of your non-road or small off-road engine. Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor or fuel injection system, the ignition system, catalytic converters, fuel tanks, valves, filters, clamps, connectors, and other associated components. Also included may be hoses, belts and connectors, and other emission-related assemblies. Where a warrantable condition exists, Homelite Consumer Products, Inc., will repair your non-road or small off-road engine at no cost to you, including diagnosis, parts, and labor performed at an authorized service center for HOMELITE® brand outdoor products. MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY COVERAGE: This product’s emissions control system is warranted for two years. If any emission- related part on your engine is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by Homelite Consumer Products, Inc., free of charge. OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES (a) As the non-road or small off-road engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your operator’s manual. Homelite Consumer Products, Inc., recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your non-road or small off-road engine, but Homelite Consumer Products, Inc., cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance. Any replacement part or service that is equivalent in performance and durability may be used in non-warranty maintenance or repairs, and shall not reduce the warranty obligations of Homelite Consumer Products, Inc. (b) As the non-road or small off-road engine owner, you should be aware, however, that Homelite Consumer Products, Inc., may deny you warranty coverage if your non-road or small off-road engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, or unapproved modifications. (c) You are responsible for presenting your non-road or small off-road engine to an authorized service dealer as soon as a 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, you should contact a Homelite Consumer Products, Inc., Customer Representative at 1-800-242-4672. DEFECT WARRANTY COVERAGE REQUIREMENTS: (a) The warranty period begins on the date the engine or equipment is delivered to an ultimate purchaser. (b) General Emissions Warranty Coverage. Homelite Consumer Products, Inc., warrants to the ultimate purchaser and each subsequent purchaser that your non-road or small off-road engine is designed, built, and equipped at the time of sale to conform with all applicable regulations adopted by the California Air Resources Board or the United States Environmental Protection Agency; and that it is free from defects in materials and workmanship which cause the engine to fail to conform with applicable regulations for a period of two years from the date the non-road or small off-road engine is purchased by the initial purchaser. (c) The warranty on emissions-related parts will be interpreted as follows: Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required in the Emissions Maintenance Schedule and Warranty Parts List set forth below is warranted for two years. If any such part (including any part that is scheduled only for regular inspection) fails during the period of warranty coverage, it will be repaired or replaced at any HOMELITE® Authorized Service Center at no charge. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty will be warranted for the remaining warranty period. A statement to the effect of “repair or replace as necessary” would not reduce the period of warranty coverage. Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the Emissions Maintenance Schedule and Warranty Parts List is warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part.
