CALIFORNIA AND FEDERAL EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), together with
Generac Power Systems, Inc. (Generac), are pleased to explain the Emission Control System Warranty on your new engine.*
New (small off road) engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet stringent anti-smog standards for the state of
California and the federal government. 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 and exhaust systems. 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 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 Facility.
PURCHASER’S/OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the engine purchaser/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 because of 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 unap-
proved modifications, or the use of counterfeit and/or “grey market” parts not made, supplied or approved by Generac.
You are responsible for presenting your engine to a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Facility 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 Facility.

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 and federal 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 serv-
ice, evidence must be presented showing the date of the sale to the original purchaser/owner. The purchaser/owner shall be
responsible for any expenses or other charges incurred for service calls and/or transportation of the product to/from the
inspection or repair facilities. The purchaser/owner also shall be responsible for any and/or all damages or losses incurred while
the engine is being transported/shipped for inspection or warranty repairs.
