or both. Transportation charges on product submitted for repair or replacement under this warranty must be borne by purchaser. This warranty is effective for and 
is subject to the time periods and conditions stated below. For warranty service, find the nearest Authorized Service Dealer in our dealer locator map at

Liability for incidental or consequential damages are 

excluded to the extent exclusion is permitted by law. 

Some states or countries do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, and some states or 

countries do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation and exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives

WARRANTY PERIOD

Emissions-related components are covered by the Emissions Warranty Statement.

**

 In Australia - Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major 

failure and for compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be 
of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure. For warranty service, find the nearest Authorized Service Dealer in our dealer locator map at

No warranty registration is necessary to obtain warranty on Briggs & Stratton products. Save your proof of purchase receipt. If you do not provide proof of 
the initial purchase date at the time warranty service is requested, the manufacturing date of the product will be used to determine the warranty period.

ABOUT YOUR WARRANTY

We welcome warranty repair and apologize to you for being inconvenienced. Warranty service is available only through 

SNAPPER PRO

 Authorized Service Dealers. Most 

warranty repairs are handled routinely, but sometimes requests for warranty service may not be appropriate. This warranty only covers defects in materials or workmanship. 
It does not cover damage caused by improper use or abuse, improper maintenance or repair, normal wear and tear, or stale or unapproved fuel.

Improper Use and Abuse 

- The proper, intended use of this product is described in the Operator’s Manual. Using the product in a way not described in the Operator’s 

Manual or using the product after it has been damaged will void your warranty. Warranty is not allowed if the serial number on the product has been removed or the product 
has been altered or modified in any way, or if the product has evidence of abuse such as impact damage, or water/chemical corrosion damage.

Improper Maintenance or Repair 

- This product must be maintained according to the procedures and schedules provided in the Operator’s Manual, and serviced or 

repaired using genuine Briggs & Stratton parts or equivalent.

 

Damage caused by lack of maintenance or use of non-original parts is not covered by warranty.

Normal Wear

 - Like all mechanical devices, your unit is subject to wear even when properly maintained. This warranty does not cover repairs when normal use has 

exhausted the life of a part or the equipment. Except as noted in the warranty period, maintenance and wear items such as filters, belts, cutting blades, and brake pads 
(except engine brake pads) are not covered by warranty due to wear characteristics alone, unless the cause is due to defects in material or workmanship.

Stale Fuel 

- In order to function correctly, this product requires fresh fuel that conforms to the criteria specified in the Operator’s Manual. Damage caused by stale fuel 

(carburetor leaks, clogged fuel tubes, sticking valves, etc) is not covered by warranty.

Other Exclusions - 

This warranty excludes damage due to accident, abuse, modifications, alterations, improper servicing, freezing or chemical deterioration. Attachments 

or accessories that were not originally packaged with the product are also excluded. There is no warranty coverage on equipment used for primary power in place of utility 
power or on equipment used in life support applications. This warranty also excludes failures due to acts of God and other force majeure events beyond the manufacturer’s 
control.
