The California Air Resources Board (CARB) and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), together with 
Generac Power Systems, Inc. (Generac), are pleased to explain the Emission Control System Warranty on your new engine.* 
New utility, and lawn and garden equipment engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet stringent anti-smog 
standards for the state of California and the federal government. Generac will warrant the emission control system on your 
engine for the periods of time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect, unapproved modification or improper 
maintenance of your engine.

Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor, ignition and exhaust systems. Generac will repair 
your engine at no cost to you for diagnosis, replacement parts and labor, should a warrantable condition occur. 

Emissions control systems on 1997 and later model year engines are warranted for two years as hereinafter noted. If, dur-
ing such warranty period, any emission-related component or system on your engine is found to be defective in materials or 
workmanship, repairs or replacement will be performed by a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Facility.

As the engine purchaser/owner, you are responsible for the completion of all required maintenance as listed in your factory 
supplied Owner’s Manual. For warranty purposes, Generac recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance 
on your engine. However, Generac cannot deny warranty solely because of the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure 
the completion of all scheduled maintenance.

As the engine purchaser/owner, you should, however, be aware that Generac may deny any and/or all warranty coverage or 
responsibility if your engine, or a part/component thereof, has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unap-
proved modifications, or the use of counterfeit and/or ‘grey market’ parts not made, supplied or approved by Generac.

You are responsible for presenting your engine to a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Facility as soon as a problem 
occurs. The warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.

Warranty service can be arranged by contacting either your selling dealer or a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Facility.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This warranty statement explains your rights and obligations under the Emission Control System 
Warranty (ECS Warranty), which is provided to you by Generac pursuant to California and federal law. See also the “Generac 
Limited Warranties for Generac Power Systems, Inc.,” which is enclosed herewith on a separate sheet, also provided to you 
by Generac. The ECS Warranty applies only to the emission control system of your new engine. If there is any conflict in 
terms between the ECS Warranty and the Generac Warranty, the ECS Warranty shall apply except in circumstances where 
the Generac Warranty may provide a longer warranty period. Both the ECS Warranty and the Generac Warranty describe 
important rights and obligations with respect to your new engine.

Warranty service can be performed only by a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Facility. When requesting warranty ser-
vice, evidence must be presented showing the date of the sale to the original purchaser/owner. The purchaser/owner shall 
be responsible for any expenses or other charges incurred for service calls and/or transportation of the product to/from the 
inspection or repair facilities. The purchaser/owner also shall be responsible for any and/or all damages or losses incurred 
while the engine is being transported/shipped for inspection or warranty repairs.

If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact Generac at the fol-
lowing address:
