assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, MTD will repair
your small off-road engine at no cost to you including

warranted for two years. If any emission-related part on
your engine is defective, the part will be repaired or
replaced by MTD.

• As the small off-road engine owner, you are
responsible for the performance of the required
