designed, built and equipped to meet stringent EPA and C.A.R.B. anti-smog standards. ECHO Inc. must warrant the emission control system on 

your equipment/SORE for the periods of time listed below, provided there has been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your equipment/

SORE. Your emission control system may include parts such as: carburetor, fuel-injection system, ignition system, catalytic converter/muffler, fuel 

tank, fuel feed lines, fuel cap assembly, spark plug, air filters, and other associated components. Where a warrantable condition exists, ECHO 

Inc will repair your equipment/SORE at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor. The Emission Control System warranty is extended 

to the original owner including all subsequent owners.

MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY COVERAGE:  

The emission control system is warranted for 2 years or the length of the ECHO Inc. warranty, whichever is longer. If any emission-related part 

on your equipment is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by ECHO Inc. or its Authorized Service Representative.

OWNER'S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:

As the equipment/SORE owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your Operator's Manual. ECHO 

Inc. recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your equipment/SORE however, ECHO Inc. cannot deny warranty solely 

for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance. As the equipment/SORE owner, you should be 

aware that ECHO Inc. may deny you warranty coverage if your equipment/SORE or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance 

or unapproved modifications. 

You are responsible for presenting your equipment/SORE to an ECHO Inc. authorized service representative as soon as a problem exists. The 

warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days. If a warrantable condition exists and there is no 

Authorized Dealer within 100 miles, ECHO Inc. will pay to ship the unit to the nearest authorized dealer. If you have questions regarding your 

warranty coverage, you should contact ECHO Inc. at 1-800-673-1558, web site WWW.ECHO-USA.COM or contact Shindaiwa at 1-877-986-

WHAT DOES THIS WARRANTY COVER? 

ECHO Inc. warrants that your equipment/SORE was designed, built and equipped to conform with applicable EPA and C.A.R.B. emissions 

standards and that your equipment/SORE is free from defects in material and workmanship that would cause it to fail to conform with applicable 

requirements for 2 years or the length of the ECHO Inc. warranty, whichever is longer. The warranty period begins on the date the product is 

purchased by an end user.

 

HOW WILL A COVERED PART BE CORRECTED? 

If there is a defect in a part covered by this warranty, any ECHO Inc. Authorized Service Dealer will correct the defect. You will not have to pay 

anything to have the part adjusted, repaired or replaced.  This includes any labor and diagnosis for warranted repairs performed by the dealer. In 

addition, engine parts not expressly covered under this warranty but whose failure is a result of a failure of a covered part will be warranted.

WHAT PARTS ARE COVERED?

Any applicable emission related part not scheduled for "required maintenance" will be repaired or replaced within the warranty period. The repaired 

or replaced part will be warranted for the remaining ECHO Inc. warranty period. 

Any warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection in the written instructions supplied is warranted for the warranty period stated 

above.  Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty will be warranted for the remaining ECHO Inc. warranty period.

Any emission related part scheduled for replacement during "required maintenance" is warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled 

replacement point for that part.  Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty shall be warranted for the remainder of the period prior to the 

first scheduled replacement point for that part. 

Any manufacturer-approved replacement part may be used in the performance of any warranty maintenance or repairs on emission related parts, 

and must be provided without charge if the part is still under warranty. 

Any replacement part that is equivalent in performance and durability may be used in non-warranty maintenance or repairs, and shall not reduce 

the warranty obligations of the manufacturer. 

Throughout the equipment/SORE warranty period, ECHO Inc. will maintain a supply of warranted parts sufficient to meet the expected demand 

for such parts.
