CALIFORNIA EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) and Generac Power Systems, Inc. (Generac) are pleased to explain the 
Emission Control System warranty on your new engine. In California, new off-road Large Spark-Ignition (LSI) engines 
must be designed, built and equipped to meet the state's stringent anti-smog standards. Generac will warrant the emission 
control system on your engine for the periods of time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect, unapproved 
modification or improper maintenance of your engine.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor, ignition system, exhaust system and crankcase 
ventilation system. Generac will repair your engine at no cost to you for diagnosis, replacement parts and labor, should a 
warrantable condition occur.
MANUFACTURER’S EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY COVERAGE:
Emissions control systems on 2001 and later model year LSI engines are warranted for two years as hereinafter noted. If, 
during such warranty period any emission-related component or system on your engine is found to be defective in materials 
or workmanship, repairs or replacement will be performed by a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Dealer.
PURCHASER'S/OWNER'S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the engine owner, you are responsible for the completion of all required maintenance as listed in your factory supplied 
Owner's Manual. For warranty purposes, Generac recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on 
your engine. However, Generac cannot deny warranty solely due to the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the 
completion of all scheduled maintenance.
As the engine purchaser/owner, you should, however, be aware that Generac may deny any and/or all warranty coverage 
or responsibility if your engine, or a part/component thereof, has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance 
or unapproved modifications, or the use of counterfeit and/or "grey market" parts not made, supplied or approved by 
Generac.
You are responsible for contacting a Generac Authorized Warranty Dealer as soon as a problem occurs. The 
warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
Warranty service can be arranged by contacting either your selling dealer or a Generac Authorized Warranty Service 
Dealer. To locate the Generac Authorized Warranty Service Dealer nearest you, call our toll free number:
1-800-333-1322
IMPORTANT NOTE: This warranty statement explains your rights and obligations under the Emission Control System 
Warranty (ECS Warranty), which is provided to you by Generac pursuant to California law. See also the "Generac Limited 
Warranties for Generac Power Systems, Inc.," which is enclosed herewith on a separate sheet, also provided to you by 
Generac. The ECS Warranty applies only to the emission control system of your new engine. If there is any conflict in 
terms between the ECS Warranty and the Generac Warranty, the ECS warranty shall apply except in circumstances where 
the Generac Warranty may provide a longer warranty period. Both the ECS Warranty and the Generac Warranty describe 
important rights and obligations with respect to your new engine.
Warranty service can be performed only by a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Facility. When requesting warranty 
service, evidence must be presented showing the date of the sale to the original purchaser/owner.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact Generac at one of the 
following addresses:
