ABOUT YOUR WARRANTY

Warranty service is available only through 

FERRIS

 Authorized Service Dealers. This warranty covers only defects in materials or workmanship. It does not cover damage 

caused by improper use or abuse, improper maintenance or repair, normal wear and tear, or stale or unapproved fuel.

Improper Use and Abuse 

- The proper, intended use of this product is described in the Operator’s Manual. Using the product in a way not described in the Operator’s 

Manual or using the product after it has been damaged will not be covered under this warranty. Warranty coverage will also not be provided if the serial number on the 
product has been removed or the product has been altered or modified in any way, or if the product has evidence of abuse such as impact damage or water/chemical 
corrosion damage.

Improper Maintenance or Repair 

- This product must be maintained according to the procedures and schedules provided in the Operator’s Manual, and serviced or 

repaired using genuine Briggs & Stratton parts or equivalent.

 

Damage caused by lack of maintenance or use of non-original or non-equivalent parts is not covered by 

warranty.

Normal Wear and Tear

 - Like most mechanical devices, the unit is subject to wear even when properly maintained. This warranty does not cover replacement or repairs 

when normal use has exhausted the life of a part or the equipment.  Except as noted in the warranty period, maintenance and wear items such as filters, belts, cutting 
blades, and brake pads (except engine brake pads) are not covered by warranty due to wear characteristics alone, unless the cause is due to defects in material or 
workmanship.

Stale or Unapproved Fuel 

- In order to function correctly, this product requires fresh fuel that conforms to the criteria specified in the Operator’s Manual. Engine or 

equipment damage caused by stale fuel or the use of unapproved fuels (such as E15 or E85 ethanol blends) is not covered by warranty.

Other Exclusions - 

This warranty excludes damage due to accident, abuse, modifications, alterations, improper servicing, freezing or chemical deterioration. 

Attachments or accessories that were not originally packaged with the product are also excluded. This warranty does not include used, reconditioned, second-hand, or 
demonstration equipment or engines. This warranty also excludes failures due to acts of God and other force majeure events beyond the manufacturer’s control.
