Warranty Statement
Your Warranty Rights And Obligations
The California Air Resources Board, U.S. EPA, and Briggs &
Stratton (B&S) are pleased to explain the emissions control
system warranty on your Model Year 2013-2014 engine/
equipment. In California, new small o-road engines and large
spark ignited engines less than or equal to 1.0 liter must be
designed, built, and equipped to meet the State’s stringent
anti-smog standards. B&S must warrant the emissions control
system on your engine/equipment for the periods of time listed
below provided there has been no abuse, neglect, or improper
maintenance of your engine or equipment.
Your emissions control system may include parts such as
the carburetor or fuel injection system, ignition system,
and catalytic converter. Also included may be hoses,
belts, connectors, sensors, and other emissions-related
assemblies. Your evaporative emission control system may
include parts such as: carburetors, fuel tanks, fuel lines,
fuel caps, valves, canisters, lters, vapor hoses, clamps,
connectors, and other associated components. Where a
warrantable condition exists, B&S will repair your engine/
equipment at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts, and
labor.
Manufacturer’s Warranty Coverage:
Small o-road engines and large spark ignited engines
less than or equal to 1.0 liter, and any emissions related
components of the equipment, are warranted for two years*.
If any emissions-related part on your engine/equipment is
defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by B&S.
* Two years or for the time period listed in the respective
engine or product warranty statement, whichever is greater.
Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities:
• As the engine/equipment owner, you are responsible
for the performance of the required maintenance listed
in your owner’s manual. B&S recommends that you
retain all receipts covering maintenance on your engine/
equipment, but B&S cannot deny warranty solely
for the lack of receipts or your failure to ensure the
performance of all scheduled maintenance.
• As the engine/equipment owner, you should however
be aware that B&S may deny you warranty coverage
if your engine/equipment or a part has failed due to
abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, or unapproved
modications.
• You are responsible for presenting your engine/
equipment to a B&S distribution center, servicing
dealer, or other equivalent entity, as applicable,
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 B&S at 1-800-444-7774 (in USA) or
