plain the emissions control system war-

signed, built, and equipped to meet the
State's stringent anti-smog standards.

trol system on your small off-road en-
gine for the periods of time listed below
provided there has been no abuse, ne-
glect, or improper maintenance of your
small off-road engine. Your emission
control system includes parts such as
the carburetor and the ignition system.
Where a warrantable condition exists,
Sears will repair your small off-road
engine engine at no cost to you. Ex-

MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY
COVERAGE: If any emissions related
part on your engine (as listed under
Emissions Control Warranty Parts List)
is defective or a defect in the materials
or workmanship of the engine causes
the failure of such an emission related
part, the part will be repaired or re-
placed by Sears. OWNER'S WAR-
RANTY RESPONSIBILITIES: As the
small off-road engine engine owner,
you are responsible for the perfor-
mance 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 re-
ceipts or for your failure to ensure the
performance of all scheduled mainte-
nance. As the small off-road engine
engine owner, you should be aware
that Sears may deny you warranty cov-
erage if your small off-road engine en-
gine or a part of it has failed due to
abuse, neglect, improper maintenance,
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 Sears autho-
rized repair center as soon as a prob-
lem exists. 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 your nearest autho-
rized service center or call Sears at
1-800-469-4663. WARRANTY COM-
MENCEMENT DATE: The warranty
period begins on the date the small off-
road engine is purchased. LENGTH
OF COVERAGE: This warranty shall
be for a period of two years from the
initial date of purchase. WHAT IS
COVERED: REPAIR OR REPLACE-
MENT OF PARTS. Repair or replace-
ment of any warranted part will be per-
formed at no charge to the owner at an
approved Sears Service Center. If you
have any questions regarding your
warranty rights and responsibilities,
you should contact your nearest autho-
rized service center or call Sears at
1-800-469-4663. WARRANTY PE-
RIOD: Any warranted part which is not
scheduled for replacement as required
maintenance, or which is scheduled
only for regular inspection to the effect
of "repair or replace as necessary"
shall be warranted for 2 years. Any
warranted part which is scheduled for
replacement as required maintenance
shall be warranted for the period of
time up to the first scheduled replace-
ment point for that part. DIAGNOSIS:
The owner shall not be charged for
diagnostic labor which leads to the de-
termination that a warranted part is de-
fective if the diagnostic work is per-
formed at an approved Sears Service
Center, CONSEQUENTIAL DAM-
AGES: Sears may be liable for dam-
ages to other engine components
caused by the failure of a warranted
part still under warranty. WHAT IS NOT
COVERED: All failures caused by
abuse, neglect, or improper mainte-
nance are not covered. ADD-ON OR
MODIFIED PARTS: The use of add-on
or modified parts can be grounds for
disallowing a warranty claim. Sears is
not liable to cover failures of warranted
parts caused by the use of add-on or
modified parts. HOW TO FILE A
CLAIM: If you have any questions re-
garding your warranty rights and re-
sponsibilities, you should contact your
