U.S. EPA Emissions Control Warranty Statement
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and General Power Products Company are pleased to explain the Emissions
control system warranty on your equipment. In California, new engines must be designed and built to meet the state’s
anti-smog standards. Elsewhere in the U.S., similar standards must be met that are set forth by the U.S. EPA. GPP will
warrant the emissions control system of your engine for the time periods listed below, provided there has been no unap-
proved modification, improper maintenance, abuse, or neglect of your product.
Your emissions control system includes parts such as the air cleaner, ignition system, muffler and carburetor.
Where a warrantable condition exists, GPP will repair your engine at no cost for parts, labor, and diagnosis.
GPP Emissions System Warranty Coverage
Engines are warranted with respect to the emissions control parts set forth by the U.S. EPA for a period of two years. If
any emissions part is found defective during that period, it will be replaced or repaired by GPP.
Owner’s Warranty Responsibility
As an engine and equipment owner, you are responsible for the required maintenance listed in the owner’s manual.
GPP recommends you retain all records associated with the maintenance and repair of your product, but GPP cannot
deny the warranty solely on the lack of receipts or your failure to produce records of the performed maintenance.
You are responsible for presenting your product to an authorized repair and service outlet as soon as a problem arises.
The warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time. The time should not exceed 30 days.
You may be denied warranty coverage if your product has failure due to unapproved modification, improper maintenance,
abuse, or neglect.
An authorized GPP service representative can perform warranty or service. For more information on those service rep-
resentatives see your local yellow pages or contact General Power Products at 1-866-237-1049.
GPP Emissions Control Warranty Provisions
The warranty explains your rights and responsibilities under the emissions control warranty which is provided to you by
General Power Products Company. Poulan Pro provides a limited warranty for purchasers of new products on a separate
sheet. The emissions control warranty applies only to the emissions control system of your product. If there is a conflict in
terms between the emissions control warranty and the Poulan Pro Limited Warranty, the emissions control system war-
ranty shall apply.
It must be an authorized service representative that performs warranty work. Evidence of the purchase date to the original
purchaser must be presented to the service representative at the time of request to perform warranty. GPP is not respon-
sible for service calls or transporting the product to the warranty service location. The purchaser is responsible for any loss
or damage in connection with transportation of the product or parts thereof submitted for inspection and warranty work.
