Air Resources Board (“CARB”) and Tecumseh Products Co. 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 standards. 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.
Tecumseh Products Co. will warrant 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, ignition system and exhaust system. Also included
may be the compression release system and other emission-
related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, Tecumseh Products Co.
will repair your small off-road engine at no cost to you for
diagnosis, parts and labor.

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 Tecumseh Products Co.
OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES
As the small off-road engine owner, you are responsible for the
performance of the required maintenance listed in your Owner’s

As the small off-road engine owner, you should, however, be
aware that Tecumseh Products Co. may deny you warranty
coverage if your small off-road engine or a part thereof has failed
due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved
modifications.

a Tecumseh Authorized Service Outlet (any Tecumseh
Registered Service Dealer, Tecumseh Authorized Service

as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should be completed
in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
