System Warranty Statement (Owner’s Warranty Rights and Obligations)
California and United States Emissions Control Warranty Statement
The California Air Resources Board (CARB), U.S. EPA and B&S are pleased to explain the Emissions
Control System Warranty on your model year 2009 and later Non-road Compression-ignition engine. In
California, new Non-road Compression-ignition engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet the
State’s stringent anti-smog standards. Elsewhere in the United States, new Non-road Compression-ignition
engines certified for model year 2009 and later, must meet similar standards set forth by the U.S. EPA. B&S
must warrant the emissions control system on your engine for the period of time listed below, provided there
has been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your engine.
Your emissions control system may include parts such as the fuel injection system and air induction system.
Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other emissions related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, B&S will repair your engine at no cost to you including diagnosis,
parts and labor.
Briggs & Stratton Corporation Warranty Coverage
The 2009 and later Non-road Compression-ignition engines are warranted for a period of 1,500 hours or two
years, whichever occurs first. If any emissions-related part on your engine is defective, the part will be
repaired or replaced by B&S.
Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities
As the engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your
Operator’s Manual. B&S recommends that you retain all your receipts covering maintenance on your engine,
but B&S cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of
all scheduled maintenance.
As the engine owner, you should however be aware that B&S may deny you warranty coverage if your
engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
Your engine is designed to operate on low sulfur or ultra low sulfur diesel fuel only. Use of any other fuel
may result in your engine no longer operating in compliance with California’s emissions requirements and
U.S. EPA’s emissions requirements.
You are responsible for presenting your engine to an Authorized B&S 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 questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact a B&S Service
Representative at 1-800-233-3723.

Part for a period of 1,500 hours or two years, whichever occurs first, from the date the engine is
delivered to the ultimate purchaser.
3.
No Charge
Repair or replacement of any Warranted Part will be performed at no charge to the owner, including
diagnostic labor which leads to the determination that a Warranted Part is defective, if the diagnostic
work is performed at an Authorized B&S Service Dealer. For emissions warranty service, contact your
nearest Authorized B&S Service Dealer as listed in the “Yellow Pages” under “Engines, Gasoline,”
“Gasoline Engines” “Lawn Mowers,” or similar category.
4.
Claims and Coverage Exclusions

improper maintenance, or unapproved modifications. B&S is not liable to cover failures of Warranted
Parts caused by the use of non-exempted add-on or modified parts as defined in Title 13, Section
1900(b)(1) and (b)(10).
5.
Maintenance
Any Warranted Part which is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance or which is
scheduled only for regular inspection to the effect of “repair or replace as necessary” shall be
warranted for the warranty period. If any such part fails during the period of warranty coverage, it shall
be repaired or replaced at no charge to the owner at a warranty station. Any Warranted Part which is
scheduled for replacement as required maintenance shall be warranted only for the period of time up
to the first scheduled replacement for that part. Any replacement part that is equivalent in
performance and durability may be used in the performance of any maintenance or repairs and will
not reduce the warranty obligation of B&S. The owner is responsible for the performance of required
maintenance, as defined in the Operator’s Manual, but B&S cannot deny warranty solely for your
failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.

Consequential Coverage
Coverage herein shall extend to the failure of any engine components caused by the failure of any
Warranted Part still under warranty.
