Where a warrantable condition exists, B&S will repair your engine at no cost
to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.

years.
If any emissions-related part on your engine is defective, the part will be
repaired or replaced by B&S.
Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities
As the engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required
maintenance listed in your Operating & Maintenance Instructions. B&S
recommends that you retain all your receipts covering maintenance on your
engine, but B&S cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for
your failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.
As the engine owner, you should however be aware that B&S may deny you
warranty coverage if your engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect,
improper maintenance or unapproved modifications. You are responsible for
presenting your engine to an Authorized B&S Service Dealer as soon as a
problem exists. The warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable
amount of time, not to exceed 30 days. If you have questions regarding your
warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact a B&S Service
Representative at 1-800-233-3723.
