DEFECTS WarranTy rEQuirEMEnTS:

a)  The warranty period begins on the date the engine or equipment is delivered 

to an ultimate purchaser. The warranty period is two years.

b)  HFT warrants to the ultimate owner and each subsequent owner that the engine or equipment is:

1.  Designed, built, and equipped so as to conform with all applicable 

regulations adopted by the Air Resources Board; and

2.  Free from defects in materials and workmanship that causes the 

failure of a warranted part for a period of two years.

c)  The warranty on emissions-related parts is as follows:

1.  Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the written 

instructions must be warranted for the warranty period stated above.  If any such part fails during the 

period of warranty coverage, it will be repaired or replaced HFT according to Subsection (4) below.  Any 

such part repaired or replaced under the warranty must be warranted for the remaining warranty period. 

2.  Any warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection in the written instructions 

must be warranted for the warranty period defined in Subsection (b)(2).   A statement in such 

written instructions to the effect of “repair or replace as necessary” shall advise owners of 

the warranty coverage for emissions related parts. Replacement within the warranty period is 

covered by the warranty and will not reduce the period of warranty coverage. Any such part 

repaired or replaced under warranty must be warranted for the remaining warranty period.

3.  Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the written 

instructions must 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 must be repaired 

or replaced by HFT. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty must be warranted for 

the remainder of the period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for the part.

4.  Repair or replacement of any warranted part under the warranty provisions must be performed at 

no charge to the owner at a retail store or by HFT paying for shipping the product for repair.

5.  Notwithstanding the provisions herein, warranty services or repairs must be provided at 

all retail stores that are franchised to service the subject engine or by contacting HFT 

product support at 1-888-866-5797 or [email protected].

6.  The owner must not be charged for diagnostic labor that leads to the determination that a warranted 

part is in fact defective, provided that such diagnostic work is performed at a retail store.

7.  HFT is liable for damages to other engine components proximately 

caused by a failure under warranty of any warranted part.

8.  Throughout the emissions control system’s warranty period stated above, HFT must 

maintain a supply of warranted parts sufficient to meet the expected demand for 

such parts and must obtain additional parts if that supply is exhausted.

9.  Manufacturer-approved replacement parts that do not increase the exhaust or evaporative emissions of the 

engine or emissions control system must be used in the performance of any warranty maintenance or repairs 

and must be provided without charge to the owner. Such use will not reduce the warranty obligations of HFT.

10. Add-on or modified parts that are not exempted by the Air Resources Board may not be used. The use of 

any non-exempted add-on or modified parts may be grounds for disallowing a warranty claim. HFT will not be 

liable to warrant failures of warranted parts caused by the use of a non-exempted add-on or modified part.

11.  HFT issuing the warranty shall provide any documents that describe that warranty 

procedures or policies within five working days of request by the Executive Officer.
