CHAMPION POWER EQUIPMENT, INC. (CPE),
THE UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION AGENCY (U.S. EPA)
AND THE CALIFORNIA AIR RESOURCES BOARD (CARB) EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM
WARRANTY
Your Champion Power Equipment (CPE) engine complies with both the U.S. EPA and state of California Air Resources Board
(CARB) Exhaust and Evaporative emissions regulations.
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS:

The US EPA, California Air Resources Board, and CPE are pleased to explain the Federal and California Exhaust and Evaporative Emission
Control Systems Warranty on your 2019 small off-road engine (SORE) and engine powered equipment. In California, new equipment that
use small off-road engines (SORE) must be designed, built and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog standards.
CPE must warrant the exhaust and evaporative emission control system on your small off-road engine (SORE) for the period listed below,
provided there has been no abuse, neglect, unapproved modification, or improper maintenance of your equipment leading to the failure of
the exhaust and evaporative emission control systems.
Your evaporative emission control system may include parts such as: carburetors, fuel tanks, fuel lines, (for liquid fuel and fuel vapors),
fuel caps, valves, canisters, filters, clamps, connectors, and other associated components. Also included for your exhaust emission control
system may be the fuel-injection system, the ignition system, catalytic converter and other exhaust emission related assemblies. Where a
warrantable condition exits, CPE will repair your small off-road engine (SORE) at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY COVERAGE:

This exhaust and evaporative emission control system is warranted for two years. If any exhaust and evaporative, emission related part on
your engine or equipment is defective in, the part will be repaired or replaced by CPE.
OWNER WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:

As the small off-road engine (SORE) owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your Owner’s
Manual. CPE recommends that you retain all your receipts covering maintenance on your small off-road engine (SORE), but CPE cannot
deny warranty coverage solely for the lack of receipts.
As the small off-road engine (SORE) owner, you should be aware that CPE may deny you warranty coverage if your small off-road engine
(SORE) or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your small off-road engine to an Authorized CPE distribution center, service center or alternate service
outlet as described in (3)(f) below or CPE dealer or CPE, Santa Fe Springs, Ca. as soon as the problem exists. The warranty repairs shall be
completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty coverage, you should contact:

EXHAUST AND EVAPORATIVE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY
The following are specific provisions relative to your Exhaust and Evaporative Emission Control System (ECS) Warranty
Coverage.
1. APPLICABILITY: This warranty shall apply to 1995 and later model year California small off-road engines (SORE) (for other states,
1997 and later model year engines). The ECS Warranty Period shall begin on the date the new engine or equipment is delivered to its
original, end-use purchaser, and shall continue for 24 consecutive months thereafter.
2. GENERAL EMISSIONS WARRANTY COVERAGE
CPE warrants to the original, end-use purchaser of the new engine or equipment and to each subsequent purchaser that each of its
small off-road engines (SORE) is:
2a. Designed, built and equipped to conform to U.S. EPA emissions standards for spark-ignited engines at or below 19 kilowatts and
all applicable regulations adopted by the California Air Resources Board and
2b. Free from defects in materials and workmanship that cause the failure of a warranted part to be identical in all material respects
to the part as described in the engine manufacturer’s application for certification for a period of two years.
3. THE WARRANTY ON EXHAUST AND EVAPORATIVE EMISSION-RELATED PARTS WILL BE INTERPRETED AS FOLLOWS:
3a. Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the Owner’s Manual shall be warranted for
the ECS Warranty Period. If any such part fails during the ECS Warranty Period, it shall be repaired or replaced by CPE according
to Subsection “d” below. Any such part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty shall be warranted for any remainder of the
ECS Warranty Period.
3b. Any warranted, exhaust and evaporative emissions-related part which is scheduled only for regular inspection as specified in the
Owner’s Manual shall be warranted for the ECS Warranty Period. A statement in such written instructions to the effect of “repair
or replace as necessary”, shall not reduce the ECS Warranty Period. Any such part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty
shall be warranted for the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period.
3c. Any warranted, exhaust and evaporative emissions-related part which is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in
the Owner’s Manual shall be warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part. If the part
fails prior to the first scheduled replacement, the part shall be repaired or replaced by CPE according to Subsection “d” below.
Any such exhaust and evaporative emissions-related part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty, shall be warranted for the
remainder of the ECS Warranty Period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for such emissions-related part.
3d. Repair or replacement of any warranted, exhaust and evaporative emissions-related part under this ECS Warranty shall be
performed at no charge to the owner at a CPE Authorized Service Outlet.
3e. The owner shall not be charged for diagnostic labor which leads to the determination that a part covered by the ECS Warranty is in
fact defective, provided that such diagnostic work is performed at a CPE Authorized Service Outlet.
3f. CPE shall pay for covered exhaust and evaporative emissions warranty repairs at non-authorized service outlets under the
following circumstances:
i. The service is required in a population center with a population over 100,000 according to U.S. Census 2000 without a CPE
Authorized Service Outlet AND
ii. The service is required more than 100 miles from a CPE Authorized Service Outlet. The 100 mile limitation does not apply in the
following states: Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Texas, Utah and
Wyoming.
3g. CPE shall be liable for damages to other original engine components or approved modifications proximately caused by a failure
under warranty of an emission-related part covered by the ECS Warranty.
3h. Throughout the ECS Warranty Period, CPE shall maintain a supply of warranted exhaust and evaporative emission-related parts
sufficient to meet the expected demand for such exhaust and evaporative emission-related parts.
3i. Any CPE Authorized and approved exhaust and evaporative emission-related replacement part may be used in the performance
of any ECS Warranty maintenance or repair and will be provided without charge to the owner. Such use shall not reduce CPE’s
warranty obligation.
3j. Unapproved add-on or modified parts may not be used to modify or repair a CPE engine. Such use voids this ECS Warranty and
shall be sufficient grounds for disallowing an ECS Warranty claim. CPE shall not be liable hereunder for failures of any warranted
parts of a CPE engine caused by the use of such an unapproved add-on or modified part.
