EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY

Emission Control System Warranty (ECS warranty) for equipment using small spark-ignited engines:
(a)   Applicability: This warranty shall apply to equipment that uses small off-road engines. The ECS Warranty period shall begin on the date the new 

equipment 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 

subsequent purchaser/owner that the ECS when installed was:

 

(1)  Designed, built and equipped so as to conform with all applicable regulations; and

 

(2)   Free from defects in materials and workmanship which cause the failure of a warranted part at any time during the ECS Warranty Period.

(c)  The warranty on emissions-related parts will be interpreted as follows:
 

(1)   Any warranted part that is 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 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 the Owner’s Manual 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 part that is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the Owner's Manual shall be warranted for the period of time 

prior to 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 period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that 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)   Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (4) above, warranty services or repairs must be provided at Generac Authorized Service Facilities.

 

(6)   When the engine is inspected by a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Facility, the purchaser/owner shall not be held responsible for 

diagnostic costs if the repair is deemed warrantable.

 

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

demand for such parts.

 

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

repairs and will be provided without charge to the purchaser/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 Generac equipment caused by the use of such an unapproved, add-on, modified, counterfeit and/or "grey market" 
part.
