CALIFORNIA AND FEDERAL EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
The California Air Resources Board (CARS) 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 utility, and lawn and garden equipment 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 1997 and later model year 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 cov­
erage 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 presenting your engine to a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Facility as soon as a prob­
lem 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 Generac or a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Facility at
the following address:
GENERAC POWER SYSTEMS, INC. PH; (414) 544-4811
P.O. BOX 8 FAX; (414) 544-0179

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 cir­
cumstances 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. 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.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact
Generac at (414) 544-4811.
