YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS

The California Air Resources Board, the  Environmental Protection Agency and LEHR, 

Inc. are pleased to explain the emissions control system’s warranty on your 2009 and 

later small off-road engine.  In California and the 49 states, new equipment that use 

small off-road engines must be designed, built, and equipped to meet the State’s 

stringent anti-smog standards.  LEHR, Inc. must warrant the emissions control system 

on your small off-road engine for the period listed below provided there has been no 

abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your equipment.  Your emissions control 

system may include parts such as: carburetors or fuel injection system, ignition 

system, catalytic converters, fuel tanks, valves, filters, clamps, connectors, and other 

associated components.  Also, included may be hoses, belts, connectors, sensors, 

and other emission-related assemblies.  Where a warrantable condition exists, LEHR 

will repair your small off-road engine at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and 

labor at an authorized service dealer.

MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY COVERAGE:

This emissions control system is warranted for two years.  If any emissions-related 

part on your equipment is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by LEHR.

OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:

As the small off-road engine owner, you are responsible for performance of the re-

quired maintenance listed in your owner’s manual.  LEHR recommends that you retain 

all receipts covering maintenance on your small off-road engine, but LEHR cannot 

deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or your failure to ensure the performance 

of all scheduled maintenance.  As the small off-road engine owner, you should be  

aware that LEHR may deny you warranty coverage if your small off-road engine

or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance or unapproved 

modifications.

You are responsible for presenting your small off-road engine to a LEHR service 

center as soon as the problem exists.  The warranty repairs should be completed in a 

reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.  If you have a question regarding 

your warranty coverage, you should contact LEHR at 1-866-941-LEHR.

DEFECTS WARRANTY REQUIREMENTS:

(a) 

The warranty period begins on the date the engine or equipment is delivered to an 

ultimate purchaser.

(b

) General Emissions Warranty Coverage.  The manufacturer of each small off-road 

engine or equipment must warrant to the ultimate purchaser and each subsequent 

owner that the engine or equipment is:

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

adopted by the Air Resources Board; and free from defects in materials and work -

manship that causes the failure of a warranted part for a period of two years.

(c) 

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

Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in 

the written instructions required by Subsection 

(d) Must be warranted for the warranty period defined in Subsection (b)(2).  If any such 

part fails during the period of warranty coverage, it must be repaired or replaced 

by the manufacturer according to Subsection (4) below.  Any such part repaired or 

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

Any warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection in the written instruc-

tions required by Subsection (d) 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” will not reduce the period of warranty coverage.  Any 

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

warranty period.

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

written instructions required by Subsection (d) 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 the 

engine manufacturer according to Subsection (4) below.

Section 4:  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.  Repair or replacement of any warranted part under the warranty must be 

performed at no charge to the owner at a warranty station.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection (4) above, warranty services or repairs 

must be provided at all manufacturer distribution centers that are franchised to 

service the subject engines.

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 warranty station.

The manufacturer is liable for damages to other engine components proximately 

caused by a failure under warranty of any warranted part.

Throughout the emissions warranty period defined in Subsection (b)(2), the manu-

facturer must maintain a supply of warranted parts sufficient to meet the expected 

demand for such parts.

Any replacement part may 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 the manufacturer.

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 will be grounds 

for disallowing a warranty claim.  The manufacturer will not be liable to warrant 

failures of warranted parts caused by the use of a non-exempted add-on or modi-

fied part.

The manufacturer issuing the warranty shall provide any documents that describe that 

manufacturer’s warranty procedures or policies within five working days of request 

by the Air Resources Board.

(d)
