Emission Control System Warranty
California and United States Emission
Control Defects Warranty Statement
The California Air Resources Board (herein CARB), the United
States Environmental Protection Agency (herein EPA), and Harbor
Freight Tools (herein HFT) are pleased to explain the emission control
system warranty on your 1995 and later Small Off‑Road Engine (herein
engine). In California, the engine must be designed, built and equipped
to meet the State's stringent anti‑smog standards. Elsewhere within
the United States, new off-road, spark-ignition engines certified for
model year 1997 and later, must meet similar standards set forth by
the EPA. HFT must warrant the emission control system on your
engine for the periods of time described below, provided there has
been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your engine.
Your emission control system may include parts
such as the carburetor or fuel‑injection system, and
the ignition system. Also included may be hoses, belts,
connectors and other emission‑related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, HFT will repair your
engine at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.
Manufacturer's Warranty Coverage
The 1995 and later engines are warranted for two
(2) years. If any emission‑related part on your engine is
defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by HFT.
Harbor Freight Tools Emission Control
Defects Warranty Coverage
Engines are warranted for a period of two (2) years relative
to emission control parts defects, subject to the provisions
set forth below. If any emission related part on your engine is
defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by HFT.
Owner's Warranty Responsibilities
• As the engine owner, you are responsible for the performance
of the required maintenance listed in your Owner's Manual.
HFT recommends that you retain all receipts covering
maintenance on your engine, but HFT cannot deny warranty
solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure
the performance of all scheduled maintenance.
• As the engine owner, you should, however, be aware
that HFT may deny you warranty coverage if your engine
or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper
maintenance, or unapproved modifications.
• You are responsible for shipping your engine to a HFT warranty
station as soon as a problem exists. Contact the HFT Customer
Service department at the number below to make shipping
arrangements. 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 rights
and responsibilities, you should contact the Harbor Freight
Tools Customer Service Department at 1‑800‑520‑0882.
