CALIFORNIA & US EPA EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT
The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”), the
California Air Resources Board (“CARB”) and Tecumseh-
Power Company are pleased to explain the Federal and
California Emission Control Systems Warranty on your
new small off-road engine. In California, new 1995 and
later small off-road engines must be designed, built and
equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog stan-
dards. In other states, new 1997 and later model year
engines must be designed, built and equipped, at the
time of sale, to meet the U.S. EPA regulations for small
non-road engines. TecumsehPower Company will war-
rant the emission control system on your small off-road
engine for the periods of time listed below, provided there
has been no abuse, neglect, unapproved modification, or
improper maintenance of your small off-road engine.
Your emission control system may include parts such as
the carburetor, air cleaner assembly, ignition system,
exhaust system, crankcase breather assembly and, the
evaporative control system. Also included may be the
compression release system and other emission-related
assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, TecumsehPower
Company will repair your small off-road engine at no cost
to you for diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER’S EMISSION CONTROL
SYSTEM WARRANTY COVERAGE
Emission control systems on 1995 and later model year
California small off-road engines are warranted for two
years as hereinafter noted. In other states, 1997 and later
model year engines are also warranted for two years. If,
during such warranty period, any emission-related part
on your engine is defective in materials or workmanship,
the part will be repaired or replaced by TecumsehPower
Company.
OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES
As the small off-road engine owner, you are responsible
for the performance of the required maintenance listed in
your Operator’s Manual, but TecumsehPower Company
will not deny warranty solely due to the lack of receipts or
for your failure to provide written evidence of the perfor-
mance of all scheduled maintenance.
As the small off-road engine owner, you should, however,
be aware that TecumsehPower Company may deny you
warranty coverage if your small off-road engine or a part
thereof has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper main-
tenance or unapproved modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your small off-road
engine to a TecumsehPower Authorized Service Outlet
(any TecumsehPower Registered Service Dealer,
TecumsehPower Authorized Service Distributor or
TecumsehPower Central Warehouse Distributor) as
soon as a problem exists. 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 an
Authorized TecumsehPower Servicing Dealer and/or
TecumsehPower Company, c/o Service Manager, 900
North Street, Grafton, WI 53024-1499. Telephone 1-262-

tions under the Emission Control System Warranty (“ECS
Warranty”) which is provided to you by TecumsehPower
Company pursuant to California law. TecumsehPower
Company also provides to original purchasers of new
TecumsehPower engines the TecumsehPower Company
Limited Warranties for New TecumsehPower Engines

Power Company Warranty”) are located on the back
cover of the Operator’s Manual, enclosed with all new
TecumsehPower engines. The ECS Warranty applies
only to the emission control system of your new engine.
To the extent that there is any conflict in terms between
the ECS Warranty and the TecumsehPower Company
Warranty, the ECS Warranty shall apply except in any cir-
cumstances in which the TecumsehPower Company
Warranty may provide a longer warranty period. Both the
ECS Warranty and the TecumsehPower Company War-
ranty describe important rights and obligations with
respect to your new engine.
Warranty service can only be performed by a TecumsehPower
Authorized Servicing Dealer. At the time of requesting
warranty service, evidence must be presented of the date
of sale to the original purchaser. The purchaser shall pay
any charges for making service calls and/or for transport-
ing the products to and from the place where the inspec-
tion and/or warranty work is performed. The purchaser
shall be responsible for any damage or loss incurred in
connection with the transportation of any engine or any
part(s) thereof submitted for inspection and/or warranty
work.

and responsibilities, you should contact TecumsehPower
