Gravely PRO-24 HW Owner's/Operator's Manual page 39

(c) The warranty on evaporative emissions-related parts will be interpreted as follows:
(1) Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in
the written instructions must be warranted for the warranty period defined in
subsection (b)(2). If any such part fails during the period of warranty coverage, it must
be repaired or replaced by the Ariens Company. Any such part repaired or replaced
under the warranty must be warranted for a time not less than the remaining warranty
period.
(2) Any warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection in the written
instructions must be warranted for the warranty period defined in subsection (b)(2). 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 must be warranted for a time not less than the remaining warranty
period.
(3) Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the
written instructions must be 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 must be repaired or replaced by the Ariens Company. Any such
part repaired or replaced under warranty must be warranted for a time not less than
the remainder of the period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for the part.
(4) Repair or replacement of any warranted part under the warranty provisions of this
article must be performed at no charge to the owner at an authorized Ariens service
representative.
(5) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (4) above, warranty services or repairs
must be provided at authorized Ariens service representatives that are franchised to
service the subject small off-road equipment.
(6) 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 authorized Ariens service representative.
(7) Throughout the evaporative emission control system's warranty period set out in
subsection (b)(2), the Ariens Company must maintain a supply of warranted parts
sufficient to meet the expected demand for such parts.
(8) Manufacturer approved replacement parts must be used in the performance of any
warranty maintenance or repairs and must be provided without charge to the owner.
Such use will not reduce the warranty obligations of the manufacturer issuing the
warranty.
(9) The use of any add-on or modified parts will be grounds for disallowing a warranty
claim made in accordance with this article. The manufacturer issuing the warranty will
not be liable under this Article to warrant failures of warranted parts caused by the use
of an addon or modified part.
(10)The Ariens Company shall provide any documents that describe the warranty
procedures or policies within five working days of request by the Air Resources
Board.
