"MARUYAMA" ) are pleased to explain the Emission Control Systems Warranty on your Maruyama small off-road engine. In
California and other states, new small off-road engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet stringent anti-smog
standards. Maruyama must warrant the emission control system on your small off-road engine for the period of time listed below
provided there has been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your small off-road engine. Your emission control system

your small off-road engine at no cost to you including diagnosis (if the diagnostic work is performed at a Maruyama small off-road

OWNERS WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES.
The following obligations must be fulfilled by the owner to maintain the validity of
the Maruyama California/ EPA Emissions Systems Warranty:
(a) As the small off-road engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your
owner's manual. Maruyama recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your small off-road
engine, but Maruyama cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance
of all scheduled maintenance.
(b) You are responsible for presenting your small off-road engine to an authorized Maruyama small off-road engine Dealer as
soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed
30 days.

1. COVERAGE.
Maruyama warrants to the initial owner and each subsequent purchaser that the small off-road engine is free
from defects in materials and workmanship which cause a failure of a warranted part for a period of two years. Maruyama is
liable for damages to other engine components caused by the failure of a warranted part still under warranty. The 1995 and
later small off-road engines are warranted for two years in California. ln all other states, 1997 and later model year small
off-road engines are warranted for two years. If any emission-related part on your engine is defective, the part will be repaired
or replaced by Maruyama. This warranty time period shall begin on the date the small off-road engine is delivered to the initial
purchaser, or on the date the small off-road engine is first placed in service.
Warranty defects shall b e remedied during customary business hours at any authorized Maruyama small off-road engine
dealer located within the United States of America. Any manufacturer-approved replacement part may be used in the
pertormance of any warranty maintenance or repairs on emission-related parts, and must be provided without charge to the
owner if the part is still under warranty. Any part or parts replaced under this warranty shall become the property of Maruyama.
The emission related warranted parts are specifically defined by the California Air Resources Board's Emission Warranty
Parts List. (EPA, s regulations do not include a parts list, but EPA considers emission-related parts to include all parts listed
here.) These warranted parts are: carburetor and internal parts, spark advance/retard system, cold start enrichment system,
magneto or electronic ignition system, catalytic converter, intake manifold, exhaust manifold, air cleaner element, and spark
plugs if failure occurs prior to the first required scheduled replacement, hoses, clamps, fittings, gaskets, sealing devices,
mounting hardware and tubing used directly in these parts.
Since emission related parts may vary slightly from model to model, certain models may not contain all of these parts and
certain models may contain functionally equivalent parts.
2. LIMITATIONS.
This Emission Control Systems Warranty shall not cover any of the following:
(a) Repair or replacement required as a result of (i) misuse or neglect, (ii) lack of required maintenance, (iii) repairs
improperly performed or replacements improperly installed, (iv) use of replacement parts or accessorie_s not conforming
to Maruyama specifications which adversely affect performance and/or durability, (v) alterations or modifications not
recommended or approved in writing by Maruyama.
(b) Replacement of parts and other services and adjustments necessary for required maintenance at and after the first
