This emissions control system is warranted for two years. If any emission-related part on your small off-road

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. RATO recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your small off-road
engine/equipment, but RATO cannot deny warranty solely 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 RATO 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 RATO 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 Great Lakes Technologies,
LLC at 1-855-206-5286 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. RATO 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 RATO 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 RATO 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.
(4) Repair or replacement of any warranted part under the warranty must be performed at no charge to the owner at a
warranty station.
(5) Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection (4) above, warranty services or repairs must be provided at all RATO
distribution centers that are franchised to service the subject engine/equipments.
(6) The owner must not be charged for diagnostic labor that leads to the determination that a warranted part is in fact
defective, provided that such diagnostic work is performed at a warranty station.
(7) RATO is liable for damages to other engine/equipment components proximately caused by a failure under warranty of any
warranted part.
(8) Throughout the emissions warranty period defined in Subsection (b)(2), RATO must maintain a supply of warranted parts
sufficient to meet the expected demand for such parts.
(9) Any replacement part may be used in the performance of any warranty maintenance or repairs and must be provided
without charge to the owner. Such use will not reduce the warranty obligations of RATO.
(10) Add-on or modified parts that are not exempted by the Air Resources Board may not be used. The use of any non-
exempted add-on or modified parts will be grounds for disallowing a warranty claim. RATO will not be liable to warrant
failures of warranted parts caused by the use of a non-exempted add-on or modified part.
