YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OB-
LIGATIONS: The U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency/California Air Re-
sources Board and Sears, Roebuck and
Co., U.S.A., are pleased to explain the
emissions control system warranty on
your year 2005 and later small off-road
engine. In California, all small off-road
engines must be designed, built, and
equipped to meet the State's stringent
anti-smog standards. Sears must war-
rant the emission control system on your
small off-road engine for the periods of
time listed below provided there has
been no abuse, neglect, or improper
maintenance of your small off-road en-
gine. Your emission control system in-
cludes parts such as the carburetor and
the ignition system. Where a warrant-
able condition exists, Sears will repair
your small off-road engine engine at no
cost to you. Expenses covered under
warranty include diagnosis, parts and
labor. MANUFACTURER'S WARRAN-
TY COVERAGE: If any emissions re-
lated part on your engine (as listed un-
der 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 Sears.
OWNER'S WARRANTY RESPONSIBI-
LITIES: As the small off-road engine
engine owner, you are responsible for
the performance of the required mainte-
nance listed in your instruction 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 re-
ceipts or for your failure to ensure the
performance of all scheduled mainte-
nance. As the small off-road engine en-
gine owner, you should be aware that
Sears may deny you warranty coverage
if your small off-road engine engine or a
part of it has failed due to abuse, ne-
glect, improper maintenance, unap-
proved modifications, or the use of parts
not made or approved by the original
equipment manufacturer. You are re-
sponsible for presenting your small off-
road engine to a Sears authorized repair
center as soon as a problem exists.
Warranty repairs should be completed in
a reasonable amount of time, not to ex-
ceed 30 days. If you have any ques-
tions regarding your warranty rights and
responsibilities, you should contact your
nearest authorized service center or call
Sears at 1-800-469-4663. WARRANTY
