COMBINED EXHAUST AND EVAPORATIVE
EMISSIONS CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT
Your Warranty Rights And Obligations
The California Air Resources Board, the United States
Environmental Protection Agency and Ardisam, Inc. (Ardisam),
are pleased to explain the emission control system warranty
on your 2014 model year small off-road engine/equipment. In
the United States and California, new small off-road engine/
equipment must be designed, built and equipped to meet the
State’s stringent anti smog standards. Ardisam must warrant
the emission control system on your small off-road engine/
equipment for the periods of time listed below provided there
has been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your
small off-road engine/equipment.
Your emission control system may include parts such as
the carburetor or fuel injection system, the ignition system,
catalytic converter, fuel tanks, fuel lines, fuel caps, valves,
canisters, filters, vapor, hoses, clamps, connectors, and other
associated components. For engines less than or equal to 80
cc, only the fuel tank is subject to the evaporative emission
control warranty requirements of this section. (California only)
Where a warrantable condition exists, Ardisam will repair your
small off-road engine/equipment at no cost to you including
diagnosis, parts and labor.
Manufacturer’s Warranty Coverage:
This emissions control system is warranted for two years. If any
emission-related part on your equipment is defective, the part
will be repaired or replaced by Ardisam.
Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities:
As the small off-road engine/equipment owner, you are
responsible for the performance of the required maintenance
listed in your owner’s manual. Ardisam recommends that you
retain all receipts covering maintenance on your small off-road
engine/equipment, but Ardisam cannot deny warranty for the
lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of
all scheduled maintenance.
As the small off-road engine/equipment owner, you should
however be aware that Ardisam may deny you warranty
coverage if your small off-road engine/equipment or a part
has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or
unapproved modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your small off-road engine/
equipment to a Ardisam distribution center as soon as a
problem exists. The warranty repairs should be completed in a
reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and
responsibilities, you should contact Ardisam at 1-800-345-6007
or E-mail: [email protected].
Defects Warranty Requirements:
(A) The warranty period begins on the date the engine/
equipment is delivered to an ultimate purchaser.
(B) General Emissions Warranty Coverage. Ardisam warrants to
the ultimate purchaser and each subsequent owner that
the engine/equipment is:
(1) Designed, built, and equipped so as to conform with all
applicable regulations adopted by the Air Resources
Board; and
(2) Free from defects in materials and workmanship that
causes the failure of a warranted part for a period of two
years.
(C) The warranty on emissions-related parts will be interpreted
as follows:
(1) Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement
as required maintenance in the written instructions
required by subsection (D) must be warranted for the
warranty period defined in subsection (B)(2). If any such
part fails during the period of warranty coverage, it
must be repaired or replaced by Ardisam according to
subsection (4) below. Any such part repaired or replaced
under the warranty must be warranted for the remaining
warranty period.
(2) Any warranted part that is scheduled only for regular
inspection in the written instructions required by
subsection (D) must be warranted for the warranty
period defined in subsection (B)(2). A statement in such
written instructions to the effect of “repair or replace
as necessary” will not reduce the period of warranty
coverage. Any such part repaired or replaced under
warranty must be warranted for the remaining warranty
period.
(3) Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as
required maintenance in the written instructions required
by subsection (D) must be warranted for the period of
time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for
that part. If the part fails prior to the first scheduled
replacement, the part must be repaired or replaced
by Ardisam according to subsection (4) below. Any
such part repaired or replaced under warranty must be
warranted for the remainder of the period prior to the
first scheduled replacement point for the part.
