Warranty - Craftsman WEEDWACKER 358.791820 Operator's Manual

YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OB-
LIGATIONS: The U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency/California Air Re-
sources Board and Sears, Roebuck
and Co., U.S.A., are pleased to explain
the emissions control system warranty
on your year 2007 and later small off-
road engine. In California, all small off-
road engines must be designed, built,
and equipped to meet the State's strin-
gent anti-smog standards. Sears must
warrant the emission control system on
your small off-road engine for the peri-
ods of time listed below provided there
has been no abuse, neglect, or improp-
er maintenance of your small off-road
engine. Your emission control system
includes parts such as the carburetor,
the ignition system and the fuel tank
(California only). Where a warrantable
condition exists, Sears will repair your
small off-road engine at no cost to you.
Expenses covered under warranty in-
clude diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY
COVERAGE: If any emissions related
part on your engine (as listed under
Emissions Control Warranty Parts List)
is defective or a defect in the materials
or workmanship of the engine causes
the failure of such an emission related
part, the part will be repaired or re-
placed by Sears. OWNER'S WARRAN-
TY RESPONSIBILITIES: As the small
off-road engine owner, you are respon-
sible for the performance of the required
maintenance listed in your operator's
manual. Sears recommends that you
retain all receipts covering maintenance
on your small off-road engine, but
Sears cannot deny warranty solely for
the lack of receipts or for your failure to
ensure the performance of all sched-
uled maintenance. As the small off-road
engine owner, you should be aware that
Sears may deny you warranty coverage
if your small off-road engine or a part of
it has failed due to abuse, neglect, im-
proper maintenance, unapproved modi-
fications, or the use of parts not made
or approved by the original equipment
manufacturer. You are responsible for
presenting your small off-road engine to
a Sears authorized repair center as
soon as a problem exists. Warranty re-
pairs should be completed in a reason-
able amount of time, not to exceed 30
days. If you have any questions regard-
ing your warranty rights and responsibi-
lities, you should contact your nearest
authorized service center or call Sears
at 1-800-469-4663. WARRANTY
COMMENCEMENT DATE: The war-
ranty period begins on the date the
small off-road engine is purchased.
LENGTH OF COVERAGE: This war-
ranty shall be for a period of two years
from the initial date of purchase. WHAT
IS COVERED: REPAIR OR REPLACE-
MENT OF PARTS. Repair or replace-
ment of any warranted part will be per-
formed at no charge to the owner at an
approved Sears Service Center. If you
have any questions regarding your war-
ranty rights and responsibilities, you
should contact your nearest authorized
service center or call Sears at
1-800-469-4663.
WARRANTY PERIOD: Any warranted
part which is not scheduled for replace-
ment as required maintenance, or which
is scheduled only for regular inspection
to the effect of "repair or replace as nec-
essary" shall be warranted for 2 years.
Any warranted part which is scheduled
for replacement as required mainte-
nance shall be warranted for the period
of time up to the first scheduled replace-
ment point for that part. DIAGNOSIS:
The owner shall not be charged for
diagnostic labor which leads to the de-
termination that a warranted part is de-
fective if the diagnostic work is per-
formed at an approved Sears Service
Center. CONSEQUENTIAL DAM-
AGES: Sears may be liable for dam-
ages to other engine components
caused by the failure of a warranted
part still under warranty. WHAT IS NOT
COVERED: All failures caused by
abuse, neglect, or improper mainte-
nance are not covered. ADD-ON OR
MODIFIED PARTS: The use of add-on
or modified parts can be grounds for
disallowing a warranty claim. Sears is
not liable to cover failures of warranted
parts caused by the use of add-on or
modified parts. HOW TO FILE A
CLAIM: If you have any questions re-
garding your warranty rights and re-
sponsibilities, you should contact your
nearest authorized service center or call
Sears at 1-800-469-4663.
