Your Warranty Rights and Obligations
The California Air Resources Board, the Environmental Protection Agency, and Sears, Roebuck and Co. ( Sears) are pleased to explain the emission
control system warranty on your 2007 and later small off-road engine. In California and the 49 states, new small off-road engines must be designed,

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, Sears will repair your small off-road engine at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.
The 2007 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 Sears.
Owners 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. Sears
recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your small off-road engine, but Sears cannot deny warranty solely for the lack
of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.

or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
