emissions control system warranty on your
lawn and garden equipment engine. All new
utility and lawn and garden equipment en-
gines must be designed, built, and equipped
to meet the stringent anti--smog standards.
POULAN/WEED EATER must warrant the
emission control system on your lawn and

time listed below provided there has been no
abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance of
your lawn and garden equipment engine.
Your emission control system includes parts
such as the carburetor and the ignition sys-
tem. Where a warrantable condition exits,
POULAN/WEED EATER will repair your lawn
and garden equipment engine at no cost to
you. Expenses covered under warranty in-
clude diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFAC-
TURER’S WARRANTY COVERAGE:
If any
emissions related part on your engine (as
listed under Emissions Control Warranty
Parts List) is defective or a defect in the mate-
rials or workmanship of the engine causes the
failure of such an emission related part, the
part will be repaired or replaced by POULAN/
WEED EATER.
OWNER’S WARRANTY
RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the lawn and gar-
den equipment engine owner, you are re-
sponsible for the performance of the required
maintenance listed in your instruction manu-
al. POULAN/WEED EATER recommends
that you retain all receipts covering mainte-
nance on your lawn and garden equipment
engine, but POULAN/WEED EATER cannot
deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or
for your failure to ensure the performance of
all scheduled maintenance. As the lawn and
garden equipment engine owner, you should
be aware that POULAN/WEED EATER may
deny you warranty coverage if your lawn and
garden equipment engine or a part of it has
failed due to abuse, neglect, improper mainte-
nance, unapproved modifications, or the use
of parts not made or approved by the original
equipment manufacturer. You are responsi-
ble for presenting your lawn and garden
equipment engine to a POULAN/WEED EAT-
ER authorized repair center as soon as a
problem exists. Warranty repairs should be
completed in a reasonable amount of time,
not to exceed 30 days. If you have any ques-
tions regarding your warranty rights and re-
sponsibilities, you should contact your near-
est authorized service dealer or call POU-
LAN/WEED EATER at 1--800--554--6723.
