2 YEAR LIMITED EMISSION-RELATED WARRANTY 

 

THIS ENGINE MEETS U.S. EPA EMISSION STANDARDS UNDER 40 CFR 1054.625 .The emission-related limited warranty is valid for two (2) years. Keep the

owners located within 100 miles of an authorized service center. For owners located more than 100 miles from an authorized service center, Buffalo Corp will, in its 
sole discretion, either pay for shipping costs to and from an authorized service center, provide for a service technician to come to the owner to make the warranty 
repair, or pay for the repair to be made at a local non-authorized service center. The provisions of this paragraph apply only for the contiguous states, excluding the 
states with high-altitude areas identified in 40 CFR part 1068, Appendix III. 

To exercise this warranty, DO NOT RETURN TO RETAILER. Instead, call Customer Service toll free at 1-866-460-9436 (email address [email protected]) and 
you will be instructed on where to take the engine for warranty service. Take the log splitter and proof of purchase (your receipt) to the repair facility recommended

unauthorized alterations, use in an application for which the product was not designed and any other modifications or abuse.

  

1 YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY  

(30 Day Limited Warranty for Commercial and Rental Purpose)

use during the 1 YEAR warranty period. Warranty 

repairs or replacements will be made without charge for parts or labor. Parts replaced during warranty
