YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OB-
LIGATIONS: The U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency/California Air Re-
sources Board and Sears, Roebuck and
Co,, U.S.A,, are pleased to explain the
emissions control system warranty on
your year 2000-2003 small off-roed en-
gine. In California, all new small off-road
engines must be designed, built, and
equipped to meet the State's stringent
anti-smog standards. Sears must war-
rant the emission control system on your
small off-road engine for the periods of
time listed below provided there has
been no abuse, neglect, or improper
maintenance of your small off-road en-
gine engine. Your emission control sys-
tem includes parts such as the carbure-
tor and the ignition system. Where a
warrantable condition exists, Sears will
repair your small off-road engine engine
at no cost to you. Expenses covered un-
der warranty include diagnosis, parts
and labor. MANUFACTURER'S WAR-
RANTY COVERAGE: If any emissions
related part on your engine (as listed un-
der Emissions Control Warranty Parts
List) is defective or a defect in the mata-
rials or workmanship of the engine
causes the failure of such an emission
related part, the part will be repaired or
replaced by Sears. OWNER'S WAR-
RANTY RESPONSIBILITIES: As the
small off-roed engine engine owner, you
are responsible for the performance of
the required maintenance listed in your
instruction manual. Sears recommends
that you retain all receipts covering
maintenance on your small off-road en-
gine, but Sears cannot deny warranty
solely for the lack of receipts or for your
failure to ensure the performance of alI
scheduled maintenance. As the small
off-road engine engine owner, you
should be aware that Sears may deny
you warranty coverage if your small off-
road engine engine or a part of it has
failed due to abuse, neglect, improper
maintenance, unapproved modifications,
or the use of parts not made or ap-
proved by the original equipment
manufacturer. You are responsible for
presenting your smell off-road engine to
a Sears authorized repair center as
soon as a problem exists. Warranty re-
pairs should be completed in a reason-
able amount of time, not to exceed 30
days. If you have any questions regard-
ing your warranty rights and responsibili-
ties, you should contact your nearest
authorized service center or call Sears
at 1-800-469-4663. WARRANTY
COMMENCEMENT DATE: The warran-
ty 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 COV-
ERED: REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT
OF PARTS. Repair or replacement of
any warranted part will be performed 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 authorized service center
or call Sears at 1-800-469-4663. WAR-
RANTY PERIOD: 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 neces-
sary" 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 replacement
point for that part. DIAGNOSIS: The
owner shall not be charged for diagnos-
tic labor which leads to the determina-
tion that a warranted part is defective if
the diagnostic work is performed at an
approved Sears Service Center. CON-
SEQUENTIAL DAMAGES: Sears may
be liable for damages 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
maintenance 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 ques-
tions regarding your warranty rights and
responsibilities, you should contact your
