GENERAC PORTABLE PRODUCTS OWNER WARRANTY POLICY Effective October 1, 2001

WARRANTY PERIOD*

* The warranty period begins on the date of purchase by the first retail consumer or commercial end user, and continues for the period of time
stated in the table above. "Consumer use" means personal residential household use by a retail consumer. "Commercial use" means all other uses,
including use for commercial, income producing or rental purposes. Once equipment has been used commercially, it shall thereafter be considered
to be in commercial use for purposes of this warranty. Used equipment, demonstration equipment and equipment used for prime power in place
of a utility are not warranted. Accessory parts such as guns, hoses, wands and nozzles are excluded from the product warranty.

** The gasoline engine and starting batteries are warranted solely by the manufacturers of those products.

WARRANTY REGISTRATION IS NOT NECESSARY TO OBTAIN WARRANTY ON GENERAC PORTABLE PRODUCTS
EQUIPMENT. SAVE YOUR PROOF OF PURCHASE RECEIPT. IF YOU DO NOT PROVIDE PROOF OF THE INITIAL
PURCHASE DATE AT THE TIME WARRANTY SERVICE IS REQUESTED,THE MANUFACTURING DATE OF THE
EQUIPMENT WILL BE USED TO DETERMINE THE WARRANTY PERIOD.

About your equipment warranty:

Generac Portable Products welcomes warranty repair and apologizes to you for being inconvenienced.Any Authorized Service Dealer may perform
warranty repairs. Most warranty repairs are handled routinely, but sometimes requests for warranty service may not be appropriate. For example,
warranty would not apply if equipment damage occurred because of misuse, lack of routine maintenance, shipping, handling, warehousing or improper
installation. Similarly, warranty is void if the serial number of the equipment has been removed or the equipment has been altered or modified.

If a customer differs with the decision of the Service Dealer, an investigation will be made to determine whether the warranty applies. Ask the
Service Dealer to submit all supporting facts to its Distributor for review. If the Distributor decides that the claim is justified, the customer will be
fully reimbursed for those items that are defective.To avoid misunderstandings that might occur between the customer and the Dealer, listed
below are some of the causes of equipment failure that the warranty does not cover:

Normal wear:
Outdoor Power Equipment, like all mechanical devices, needs periodic parts, service and replacement to perform well.This warranty
does not cover repair when normal use has exhausted the life of a part or the equipment.
Installation and Maintenance:
This warranty does not apply to equipment or parts that have been subjected to improper or unauthorized installation or alteration,
misuse, negligence, accident, overloading, overspeeding, improper maintenance, repair or storage so as, in Generac Portable Products'
judgment, to adversely affect its performance and reliability.This warranty also does not cover normal maintenance such as adjustments,
fuel system cleaning and obstruction (due to chemical, dirt, carbon or lime, etc.).
Other Exclusions:
Also excluded from this warranty are wear items such as quick couplers, oil gauges, belts, o-rings, filters, pump packing, etc., pumps
which have been run without water supplied or damage or malfunctions resulting from accidents, abuse, modifications, alterations, or
improper servicing or freezing or chemical deterioration.

Warranty is available only through service dealers authorized by Generac Portable Products.This warranty does not apply to
service by any other entity.
