EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY

Emission Control System Warranty (ECS Warranty) for 1995 and later model year engines:

(a)  Applicability: This warranty shall apply to 1995 and later model year engines. The ECS Warranty Period shall begin on the date the new engine or equip-

ment is purchased by/delivered to its original, end-use purchaser/owner and shall continue for 24 consecutive months thereafter.

(b)  General Emissions Warranty Coverage: Generac warrants to the original, end-use purchaser/owner of the new engine or equipment and to each subse-

quent purchaser/owner that each of its engines is ...

(1)  Designed, built and equipped so as to conform with all applicable regulations adopted by the CARB pursuant to its authority, and 

(2)  Free from defects in materials and workmanship which, at any time during the ECS Warranty Period, may cause a warranted emissions-related part 

to fail to be identical in all material respects to the part as described in the engine manufacturer’s application for certification.

(c) The ECS Warranty only pertains to emissions-related parts on your engine, as follows:

(1)  Any warranted, emissions-related parts that are not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the Owner’s Manual shall be warranted for 

the ECS Warranty Period. If any such part fails during the ECS Warranty Period, it shall be repaired or replaced by Generac according to Subsection 

(4) below. Any such part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty shall be warranted for the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period.

(2)  Any warranted, emissions-related part that is scheduled only for regular inspection as specified in the Owner’s Manual shall be warranted for the ECS 

Warranty Period. A statement in such written instructions to the effect of “repair or replace as necessary” shall not reduce the ECS Warranty Period. 

Any such part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty shall be warranted for the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period.

(3)  Any warranted, emissions-related part that is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the Owner’s Manual shall be warranted for the 

period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part. If the part fails prior to the first scheduled replacement, the part shall be 

repaired or replaced by Generac according to Subsection (4) below. Any such emissions-related part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty 

shall be warranted for the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for such emissions-related part.

(4)  Repair or replacement of any warranted, emissions-related part under this ECS Warranty shall be performed at no charge to the owner at a Generac 

Authorized Warranty Service Facility.

(5)  When the engine is inspected by a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Facility, the owner shall not be held responsible for diagnostic costs if the 

repair is deemed warrantable.

(6)  Generac shall be liable for damages to other original engine components or approved modifications proximately caused by a failure under warranty 

of any emission-related part covered by the ECS Warranty.

(7)  Throughout the ECS Warranty Period, Generac shall maintain a supply of warranted emission-related parts sufficient to meet the expected demand 

for such emission-related parts.

(8)  Any Generac authorized and approved emission-related replacement part may be used in the performance of any ECS Warranty maintenance or repairs 

and will be provided without charge to the owner. Such use shall not reduce Generac ECS Warranty obligations.

(9)  Unapproved, add-on, modified, counterfeit and/or “grey market” parts may not be used to modify or repair a Generac engine. Such use voids this 

ECS Warranty and shall be sufficient grounds for disallowing an ECS Warranty claim. Generac shall not be held liable hereunder for failures of any 

warranted parts of a Generac engine caused by the use of such an unapproved, add-on, modified, counterfeit and/or “grey market” part.
