STATEMENT YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) and the United States
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), together with Feldmann Eng. &
Mfg. Co., Inc. are pleased to explain the Emission Control System Warranty
on your new small off-road engine. New small off-road engines must be
designed, built and equipped to meet stringent anti-smog standards for the
state of California and the federal government. Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co.,
Inc. will warrant the emission control system on your engine for the periods of
time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect, unapproved
modification or improper maintenance of your engine.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor,
ignition, intake and exhaust systems. Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc. will
repair your engine at no cost to you for diagnosis, replacement parts and
labor, should a warrantable condition occur.
MANUFACTURER'S EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY
COVERAGE:
Emission control systems on 1997 and later model year engines are
warranted for two years as hereinafter noted. If, during such warranty
period, any emission-related component or system on your engine is
found to be defective in materials or workmanship, repairs or
replacement will be performed by a Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc.
Authorized Warranty Service Facility.
PURCHASER'S/OWNER'S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the small off-road engine purchaser/owner, you are responsible for
the completion of all required maintenance as listed in your factory
supplied Owner's Manual. For warranty purposes, Feldmann Eng. & Mfg.
Co., Inc. recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance
on your engine. However, Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc. cannot deny
warranty solely because of the lack of receipts or for your failure to
ensure the completion of all scheduled maintenance.
As the small off-road engine purchaser/owner, you should, however, be
aware that Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc. may deny any and/or all
warranty coverage or responsibility if your engine, or a part/component
thereof, has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or
unapproved modifications, or the use of counterfeit and/or "grey market"
parts not made, supplied or approved by Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc.
You are responsible for presenting your engine to a Feldmann Eng. &
Mfg. Co., Inc. Authorized Warranty Service Facility as soon as a problem
occurs. The warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable
amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
Warranty service can be arranged by contacting either your selling
dealer or a Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc. Authorized Warranty Service
Facility. To locate the Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc. Authorized

which is provided to you by Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc. pursuant to
California and federal law. See also the "Limited Warranties for Feldmann
Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc." which is enclosed herewith on a separate sheet, also

circumstances where the Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc. Warranty may
provide a longer warranty period. Both the ECS Warranty and the
Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc. Warranty describe important rights and
obligations with respect to your new engine.

Inc. Authorized Warranty Service Facility. When requesting warranty
service, evidence must be presented showing the date of the sale to the
original purchaser/owner. The purchaser/owner shall be responsible for any
expenses or other charges incurred for service calls and/or transportation of

II. EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY
Emission Control System Warranty (ECS Warranty) for 1997 and later
model engines:
(a)
Applicability: This warranty shall apply to 1997 and later model year
engines. The ECS Warranty Period shall begin on the date the new engine or
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: Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc.
warrants to the original, end-use purchaser/owner of the new engine or
equipment and to each subsequent purchaser/owner that each of its engines
is...
(1)
Designed, built and equipped so as to conform with all applicable
regulations adopted by the EPA and CARB pursuant to their respective
authority, and
(2)
Free from defects in materials and workmanship which, at any time during
the ECS Warranty Period, may cause a warranted emissions-related part to fail
to be identical in all material respects to the part as described in the engine
manufacturer's application for certification.
The ECS Warranty only pertains to emissions-related parts on your engine, as
follows:
(1)
Any warranted, emissions-related parts that are 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 Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc.
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 emissions-related 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 such written instructions 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 emissions-related part that is scheduled for replacement as
required maintenance in the Owner's Manual shall 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 shall be repaired or replaced by
Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc. 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 ECS Warranty Period prior to the first
scheduled replacement point for such emissions-related 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 Feldmann Eng.
& Mfg. Co., Inc. Authorized Warranty Service Facility.
(5)
When the engine is inspected by a Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc.
Authorized Warranty Service Facility, the owner shall not be held responsible for
diagnostic costs if the repair is deemed warrantable.
(6)
Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc. shall be liable for damages to other
original engine components or approved modifications proximately caused by a
failure under warranty of any emission-related part covered by the ECS
Warranty.
(7)
Throughout the ECS Warranty Period, Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc. shall
maintain a supply of warranted emission-related parts sufficient to meet the
expected demand for such emission-related parts.
(8)
Any Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc. authorized and approved emission-related
replacement part 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 Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc.'s ECS Warranty
obligations.
(9)
Unapproved, add-on, modified, counterfeit and/or "grey market" parts may
not be used to modify or repair a Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc. engine. Such
use voids this ECS Warranty and shall be sufficient grounds for disallowing an
ECS Warranty claim. Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co., Inc. shall not be held liable
hereunder for failures of any warranted parts of a Feldmann Eng. & Mfg. Co.,
Inc. engine caused by the use of such an unapproved, add-on, modified,
