Section 6 – Warranty

Portable Generator System

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.
