YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND
OBLIGATIONS
The EPA (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency), CARB
(California Air Resources Board), Environment Canada
and McCULLOCH are pleased to explain the emissions
control system's warranty on your 2012-2013* off-road
engine. In U.S. and Canada, new equipment that use
small off-road engines must be designed, built, and
equipped to meet the applicable Federal or Californian
stringent anti-smog standards. McCULLOCH must
warrant the emissions control system on your small off-
road engine for the period listed below provided there has
been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your
equipment. Your emissions control system may include
parts such as the carburetor, ignition system, catalytic
converter, fuel tank, filters and other associated
components. Also, included may be hoses, belts,
connectors, sensors, and other emission-related
assemblies. Where a warrantable condition exists,
McCULLOCH will repair your small off-road engine at no
cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER' ' ' ' S WARRANTY
COVERAGE
The emissions control system is warranted for two years.
If any emissions-related part on your equipment is
defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by
McCULLOCH.
OWNER' ' ' ' S WARRANTY
RESPONSIBILITIES
• As the small off-road engine owner, you are
responsible for performance of the required
maintenance listed in your operator's manual.
McCULLOCH recommends that you retain all receipts
covering maintenance on your small off-road engine,
but McCULLOCH cannot deny warranty solely for the
lack of receipts or your failure to ensure the
performance of all scheduled maintenance.
• As the small off-road engine owner, you should
however be aware that McCULLOCH may deny you
warranty coverage if your small off-road engine or a
part has failed due to abuse, neglect, or improper
maintenance or unapproved modifications.
• You are responsible for presenting your small off-road
engine to a McCULLOCH distribution center or
service center as soon as the 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
32 – English
responsibilities, you should contact your nearest
authorized servicing dealer or call McCULLOCH at 1-
800-554-6723 or visit www.mccullochpower.com.
WARRANTY COMMENCEMENT DATE
The warranty period begins on the date the engine or
equipment is delivered to an ultimate purchaser.
LENGTH OF COVERAGE
McCULLOCH warrants to the ultimate purchaser and
each subsequent owner that the engine or equipment is
designed, built, and equipped so as to conform with all
applicable regulations adopted by EPA and CARB, and is
free from defects in materials and workmanship that
causes the failure of a warranted part for a period of two
years.
WHAT IS COVERED
REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF PARTS Repair or
replacement of any warranted part under the warranty
must be performed at no charge to the owner at a
warranty station. Warranty services or repairs will be
provided at all McCULLOCH distribution centers that are
franchised to service the subject engines. Throughout the
emissions warranty period of two years, McCULLOCH
must maintain a supply of warranted parts sufficient to
meet the expected demand for such parts.
WARRANTY PERIOD Any warranted part that is
scheduled for replacement as required in the
maintenance schedule, is 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 will be repaired or replaced by McCULLOCH at no
cost. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty
is warranted for the remainder of the period prior to the
first scheduled replacement point for the part. Any
warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as
required in the maintenance schedule, is warranted for
two years. If any such part fails during the period of
warranty coverage, it will be repaired and replaced by
McCULLOCH at no cost. Any such part repaired or
replaced under the warranty is warranted for the
remaining warranty period. Any warranted part that is
scheduled only for regular inspection in the maintenance
schedule will be warranted for a period of two years. 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 will be warranted for the remaining
warranty period.
DIAGNOSIS 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.
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES McCULLOCH is liable for
damages to other engine components proximately
caused by a failure under warranty of any warranted part.
