OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILI-
TIES: As the small off--road engine owner, you

ty 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 be aware that POULAN/
WEED EATER may deny you warranty cover-
age if your small off--road engine or a part of it
has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper main-
tenance, unapproved modifications, or the use
of parts not made or approved by the original
equipment manufacturer. You are responsible
for presenting your small off--road engine to a

center as soon as a problem exists. Warranty
