FEDERAL EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT

YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), together

with Ardisam, Inc. (Ardisam), are pleased to explain the Emission

Control System Warranty on your small off-road engine (SORE). New

small off-road engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet

stringent anti-smog standards the federal government. Ardisam will

warrant the emission control system on your engine for the periods

of time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect,

modification or improper maintenance of your engine.

The emission control system includes all components whose failure

would increase the emissions of any regulated pollutant. These

components are listed in the emission-related parts list located in a

subsequent section of this emissions warranty statement. Ardisam

will repair your engine at no cost to you for diagnosis, replacement

parts and labor, should a warrantable condition occur.

MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY COVERAGE:

The emission control system is warranted for two years. If, during such

warranty period, any emission-related part on your engine is found to

be defective in materials or workmanship, repairs or replacement will

be performed by a Ardisam Authorized Warranty Service Facility.

PURCHASER’S/OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:

As the SORE purchaser/owner, you are responsible for the completion

of all required maintenance as listed in your factory supplied

Manual(s). For warranty purposes, Ardisam recommends that you

retain all receipts covering maintenance on your SORE. However,

Ardisam cannot deny warranty solely because of the lack of receipts

or for your failure to ensure the completion of all scheduled

maintenance.

As the SORE purchaser/owner, you should, however, be aware that

Ardisam may deny any and/or all warranty coverage or responsibility

if your SORE or a part/component thereof, has failed due to abuse,

neglect, improper maintenance or modifications, or the use of

counterfeit and/or “grey market” parts not made, supplied or

approved by Ardisam.

You are responsible for presenting your SORE to an Ardisam

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 Ardisam Authorized Warranty Service Facility. To locate the

Ardisam Authorized Warranty Service Facility nearest you, call our free

IMPORTANT NOTE: This warranty statement explains your rights

and obligations under the Emission Control System Warranty

(ECS Warranty), which is provided to you by Ardisam pursuant to

federal law. See also the Ardisam “Product Warranty” (non-emission

warranties), which is enclosed herewith on a separate sheet or

located in additional materials accompanying this product. 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 Ardisam Warranty, the ECS Warranty shall apply except in

circumstances where the Ardisam Warranty may provide a longer

warranty period. Both the ECS Warranty and the Ardisam Warranty

describe important rights and obligations with respect to your new

engine.

Warranty service can be performed only by an Ardisam Authorized

Warranty Service Facility. When requesting warranty service, evidence

must be presented showing the date of the sale to the original

purchaser/owner. Ardisam will not be responsible for any and/or all

damages or losses incurred while the engine is being transported/

shipped for inspection or warranty repairs.
