There is no warranty for engines on equipment used for prime power in place of a
utility; standby generators used for commercial purposes, utility vehicles exceeding 25
MPH, or engines used in competitive racing or on commercial or rental tracks.
The warranty period begins on the date of purchase by the first retail consumer or
commercial end user, and continues for the period of time stated in the table above.
"Consumer use" means personal residential household use by a retail consumer.
"Commercial use" means all other uses, including use for commercial, income
producing or rental purposes. Once an engine has experienced commercial use,
it shall thereafter be considered as a commercial use engine for purposes of this
warranty.
No warranty registration is necessary to obtain warranty on Briggs & Stratton
products. Save your proof of purchase receipt. If you do not provide proof of the
initial purchase date at the time warranty service is requested, the manufacturing
date of the product will be used to determine the warranty period.

The U.S. EPA and Briggs & Stratton (B&S) are pleased to explain the exhaust and
evaporative emissions ("emissions") control system warranty on your 2023-2025
engine. New equipment that use small off-road engines must be designed, built, and
equipped to meet 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 small off-road
engine or equipment leading to the failure of the emissions control system.
Your emissions control system may include parts such as the carburetor or fuel-
injection system, the ignition system, catalytic converter, fuel tanks, fuel lines (for liquid
fuel and fuel vapors), fuel caps, valves, canisters, filters, clamps and other associated

to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.

deny you warranty coverage if your engine/equipment or a part has failed due
to abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.

distribution center or service center as soon as the problem exists. The
