The California Air Resources Board and Ryobi America Corp. (RAC), is pleased
to explain the emission control system warranty on your 1995 lawn and garden
equipment engine. In California, new lawn and garden equipment engines must be
designed, built and equipped to meet the State's stringent anti-smog standards.
RAC must warrant the emission control system on your lawn and garden equip-
ment engine for the periods of time listed below provided there has been no abuse,
neglect or improper maintenance of your lawn and garden equipment engine.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor or fuel
injection system, the ignition system, and catalytic converter. Also included may be
hoses, belts, connectors and other emission-related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, RAC will repair your lawn and garden equip-
ment engine at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.
The 1995 and later utility and lawn and garden equipment engines are warranted
for two years. If any emission-related part on your engine is defective, the part will
be repaired or replaced by RAC.
OWNER'S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:
• As the lawn and garden equipment engine owner, you are responsible for the
performance of the required maintenance listed in your operator's manual.
RAC recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your
lawn and garden equipment engine, but RAC cannot deny warranty solely for
the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of all
scheduled maintenance.
• As the lawn and garden equipment engine owner, you should however be aware
that RAC may deny you warranty coverage if your lawn and garden equipment
engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or
unapproved modifications.
• You are responsible for presenting your lawn and garden equipment engine to
an Ryobi Authorized Service Center as soon as a 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 1-800-345-8746.
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 or replacement of warranted part will be performed at no charge to
the owner at an Authorized Ryobi Service Center. For the nearest location,
please contact Ryobi at: 1-800-345-8746.
• Any warranted part which is not scheduled for replacement, as required
maintenance which is scheduled only for regular inspection to the effect of
"Repair or replace as necessary" is warranted for the warranty 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 Ryobi 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 or warranted parts caused
by the use of add-on or modified parts.
• In order to file a claim, go to your nearest Authorized Ryobi Service Center.
Warranty services or repairs will be provided at all Authorized Ryobi 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 of the
engine, air filter, carburetor, primer, fuel lines, fuel pick up/fuel filter, ignition
module, spark plug and muffler.
