The Lawn-Boy Worry Free Five-Year Starting Guarantee

A Five-Year Full Warranty on

Model 28226 Snow Product Engines

Conditions and Products Covered

Lawn-Boy and its affiliate, Lawn-Boy Warranty Company, pur-
suant to an agreement between them, jointly guarantee that your
Lawn-Boy Engine will start on the first or second pull for five years
from the date of purchase—if you provide the routine maintenance
it requires—or we will fix it free of charge. This warranty covers the
cost of parts and labor, but you must pay transportation costs. This
covers Lawn-Boy Model 28226 snow product engines.

Instructions for Obtaining Warranty Service

If a normal, able-bodied adult can no longer start your product’s
engine in one or two pulls, follow this procedure:

1Contact any Lawn-Boy Authorized or Master Service Dealer to

arrange service at their dealership. To locate a dealer
convenient to you, refer to the Yellow Pages of your telephone
directory (look under “Lawn Mowers”) or access our website at
www.LawnBoy.com. U.S. customers may also call
800-421-9684 to use our 24-hour Lawn-Boy dealer locator
system.

2Bring the product, your maintenance records, and your proof of

purchase (sales receipt) to the Service Dealer.

If for any reason you are dissatisfied with the Service Dealer’s
analysis or with the assistance provided, contact us at:

Owner Responsibilities

You must maintain your Lawn-Boy Engine by following the
maintenance schedule detailed in the operator’s manual. You
must record this work in the maintenance chart provided in your
operator’s manual and keep your proof of purchase. Such routine
maintenance, whether performed by a dealer or by you, is at your
expense.

Items and Conditions Not Covered

There is no other express warranty except for The Lawn-Boy
No-Worry Warranty and special emission system coverage on
some products. This warranty does not cover the following:

Any repairs on products used commercially

Normal maintenance including replacement of spark plugs,
fuel filter, and carburetor adjustments

Oil change and lubrication

Repairs or adjustments due to the following:

failure to follow proper maintenance procedures

snowthrower auger/paddles striking an object

contaminants in the fuel system

improper fuel or fuel mixture (consult your operator’s
manual if in doubt)

failure to drain the fuel system prior to any period of
non-use over three months

operation misuse, neglect, or accidents

repairs or attempted repairs by anyone other than an
Authorized Service Dealer

Special operational conditions where starting may require
more than two pulls, including the following:

first time starts after extended period of non-use or
seasonal storage

improper starting procedures

If you are having difficulty starting your unit, please check the
operator’s manual to ensure that you are using the correct starting
procedures. This can save an unnecessary visit to a Service
Dealer.

All warranty repairs reimbursable under this warranty must be
performed by an Authorized Lawn-Boy Service Dealer using
Lawn-Boy approved replacement parts.

General Conditions

Repair by an Authorized Lawn-Boy Service Dealer is your sole
remedy under this warranty.

Neither Lawn-Boy nor Lawn-Boy Warranty Company is liable
for indirect, incidental or consequential damages in connec-
tion with the use of the Lawn-Boy Products covered by this
warranty, including any cost or expense of providing substi-
tute equipment or service during reasonable periods of
malfunction or non-use pending completion of repairs under
this warranty.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also
have other rights which vary from state to state.

schedule. Follow the procedures in this operator’s manual and record all maintenance activities on this chart.
