LIMITED WARRANTY FOR DELUXE PORTABLE GENERATORS
SEARS warrants to the original purchaser that the alternator and engine for its portable generator will be free
from defects in materials or workmanship for the items and period set forth below from the date of original pur-
chase. This warranty is not transferable and applies only to portable generators driven by the GN-Series Sears
warranted engine.
CONSUMER* COMMERCIAL*
Alternator 2 years (2nd year parts only) 1 year
Engine 2 years (2nd year parts only) 1 year
* NOTE: For the purpose of this warranty "Consumer Use" means personal residential household and emergency
use by original purchaser, not to be used as a primary source of power. "Commercial Use" means all other uses,
including rental, construction, commercial, and income producing purposes. Once a generator has experienced
commercial use, it shall thereafter be considered a commercial use generator for the purpose of this warranty.
During said warranty period, SEARS will, at its option, repair or replace any part which, upon examination by
SEARS, is found to be defective under normal use and service**. Starting batteries are not warranted by
SEARS. All transportation costs under warranty, including return to the factory if necessary, are to be borne by
the purchaser and prepaid by him. This warranty does not cover normal maintenance and service and does not
apply to a generator set, alternator or engine, or parts which have been subjected to improper or unauthorized
installation or alteration, misuse, negligence, accident, overloading, overspeeding, improper maintenance,
repair or storage so as, in SEARS's judgment, to adversely affect its performance and reliability.
** NORMAL WEAR: As with all mechanical devices, engines need periodic parts service and replacement to
perform well. This warranty will not cover repair when normal use has exhausted the life of a part or engine.
THERE IS NO OTHER EXPRESS WARRANTY. SEARS HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL IMPLIED WAR-
RANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THOSE OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PAR-
TICULAR PURPOSE TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. THE DURATION OF ANY IMPLIED WAR-
RANTIES WHICH CANNOT BE DISCLAIMED IS LIMITED TO THE TIME PERIOD AS SPECIFIED IN THE
EXPRESS WARRANTY. LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR SPECIAL DAMAGES UNDER
ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES IS EXCLUDED. Some provinces do not allow limitations on how long an implied
warranty lasts, or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or
exclusions may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other
rights, which vary from state to state.
For service, see your nearest SEARS authorized warranty service facility. Warranty service can be performed
only by a SEARS authorized service facility. This warranty will not apply to service at any other facility. At the
time of requesting warranty service, evidence of original purchase date must be presented.
