FEDERAL EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT

IMPORTANT: This product is compliant with U.S. EPA Phase 3

replacement parts is a violation of federal law.
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND
OBLIGATIONS
The EPA (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency), CARB
(California Air Resources Board), Environment Canada and
Husqvarna Forest & Garden are pleased to explain the
emissions control system's warranty on your 2013-2014* small
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. Husqvarna Forest & Garden 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, Husqvarna Forest &
Garden 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 Husqvarna Forest & Garden.
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. Husqvarna Forest & Garden
recommends that you retain all receipts covering
maintenance on your small off-road engine, but Husqvarna
Forest & Garden 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 Husqvarna Forest & Garden 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 Husqvarna Forest & Garden 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 coverage, you should
contact Husqvarna Forest & Garden at 1-800-438-7297 or
send e-mail correspondence to

WARRANTY COMMENCEMENT DATE
The warranty period begins on the date the engine or equipment
is delivered to an ultimate purchaser.
LENGTH OF COVERAGE
Husqvarna Forest & Garden 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 Husqvarna
Forest & Garden distribution centers that are franchised to
service the subject engines. Throughout the emissions warranty
period of two years, Husqvarna Forest & Garden 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
2
scheduled replacement, the part will be repaired or replaced by
Husqvarna Forest & Garden 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 Husqvarna Forest
& Garden 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

on or modified part.
