The California Air Resources Board and Ryobi
Outdoor Products (ROP), are pleased to explain the
emission control system warranty on your 1995 and
later small off-road engine. In California, new small
off-road engines must be designed, built and
equipped to meet the State's stringent anti-smog
standards. ROP must warrant 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 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, ROP will repair
your small off-road engine at no cost to you including
diagnosis, parts and labor.
The 1995 and later small off-road engines are
warranted for two years. If any emission-related part
on your engine is defective, the part will be repaired
or replaced by ROP.
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. ROP
recommends that you retain all receipts covering
maintenance on your small off-road engine, but
ROP 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 ROP 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 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.
