Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities
As the small off-road engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your operator’s
manual. Sears recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your small off-road engine, but Sears cannot deny
warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.
As the small off-road engine owner, you should however be aware that Sears may deny you warranty coverage if your small off-road
engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your small off-road engine to a Sears authorized service center as soon as problem exists. The
warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should call 1-800-4-MY-HOME

Manufacturer’s Warranty Coverage
The warranty period begins on the date the engine or equipment is delivered to the retail purchaser.
The manufacturer warrants to the initial owner and each subsequent purchaser, that the engine is free from defects in material and
workmanship which cause the failure of a warranted part for a period of two years.
Repair and replacement of warranted part will be performed at no charge to the owner at an authorized Sears service center. For
the nearest location please contact Sears at: 1-800-4-MY-HOME

.
Any warranted part which is not scheduled for replacement, as required maintenance or which is scheduled only for regular
inspection to the effect of “Repair or Replace as Necessary” is warranted for the period. Any warranted part which is scheduled for
replacement as required maintenance will be warranted for the period of time up to the first scheduled replacement point for that
part.
The owner will not be charged for diagnostic labor which leads to the determination that a warranted part is defective if the
diagnostic work is performed at an authorized Sears Service Center.
The manufacturer is liable for damages to other engine components caused by the failure of a warranted part still under warranty.
Failures caused by abuse, neglect or improper maintenance are not covered under warranty.
The use of add-on or modified parts can be grounds for disallowing a warranty claim. The manufacturer is not liable to cover failures
of warranted parts caused by the use of add-on or modified parts.
In order to file a claim, go to your nearest authorized Sears Service Center. Warranty service or repairs will be provided at all
authorized Sears Service Centers.
Any manufacturer approved replacement part may be used in the performance of any warranty maintenance or repair of emission
related parts and will be provided without charge to the owner. Any replacement part that is equivalent in performance or durability
may be used in non-warranty maintenance or repair and will not reduce the warranty obligations of the manufacturer.
The following components are included in the emission related warranty: engine, air filter, carburetor, primer, fuel lines, fuel pick
up/fuel filter, ignition module, spark plug and muffler.
