FEDERAL and/or CALIFORNIA EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
Harbor Freight Tools (HFT), the United States Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA), and, for those products certified for sale in
the state of California, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) are
pleased to explain the emission control system (ECS) warranty on
your 2014-2015 small off-road spark-ignited engine and equipment
(the outdoor equipment). In California, new outdoor equipment must
be designed, built and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-
smog standards (in other states, outdoor equipment must be designed,
built, and equipped to meet the U.S. EPA small off-road, spark ignition
engine regulations). HFT must warrant the ECS on your outdoor
equipment for the period of time listed below provided there has been
no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of outdoor equipment.
Your ECS may include parts such as the carburetor, fuel-
injection system, ignition system, catalytic converter, fuel tanks,
fuel lines, fuel caps, valves, canisters, filters, vapor hoses, clamps,
connectors and other associated emission-related components.
Where a warrantable condition exists, HFT will repair your outdoor
equipment at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY COVERAGE:
This emission control system is warranted for two years.
If any emission-related part on your outdoor equipment is
defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by HFT.
OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the outdoor equipment owner, you are responsible for
performance of the required maintenance listed in your owner’s manual.
HFT recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance
on your outdoor equipment, but HFT cannot deny warranty solely for
the lack of receipts or your failure to ensure the performance of all
scheduled maintenance.
As the outdoor equipment owner, you should however be aware
that HFT may deny you warranty coverage if your outdoor equipment
or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance or
unapproved modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your outdoor equipment to
HFT’s distribution center or service center as soon as the problem
exists. 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 toll free number 1-888-866-5797
or contact predator@harborfreight.com for emission warranty service.
DEFECTS WARRANTY REQUIREMENTS
HFT warrants to the ultimate purchaser and each subsequent
purchaser that the outdoor equipment is designed, built and equipped
so as to conform with all applicable regulations; and free from defects in
materials and workmanship that cause the failure of a warranted part,
and is identical in all material respects to that part as described in the
application for certification.
The warranty period begins on the date the outdoor equipment is
delivered to an ultimate purchaser or first placed into service.
Subject to certain conditions and exclusions as stated below, the
warranty on emission-related parts is as follows:
1. Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as
required maintenance in the written instructions supplied is
warranted for the warranty period stated above. If the part fails
during the period of warranty coverage, the part will be repaired
or replaced by HFT according to subsection (4) below. Any such
part repaired or replaced under warranty will be warranted for the
remainder of the period.
2. Any warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection
in the written instructions supplied is warranted for the warranty
period stated above. Any such part repaired or replaced under
warranty will be warranted for the remaining warranty period.
3. Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as required
maintenance in the written instructions supplied is warranted for
the period of time before the first scheduled replacement date for
that part. If the part fails before the first scheduled replacement,
the part will be repaired or replaced by HFT according to
subsection (4) below. Any such part repaired or replaced under
warranty will be warranted for the remainder of the period prior to
the first scheduled replacement point for the part.
4. Repair or replacement of any warranted part under the warranty
provisions herein must be performed at a warranty station at no
charge to the owner.
5. Notwithstanding the provisions herein, warranty services or repairs
will be provided at all of our distribution centers that are franchised
to service the subject engines or equipment.
6. The outdoor equipment owner will not be charged for diagnostic
labor that is directly associated with diagnosis of a defective,
emission-related warranted part, provided that such diagnostic
work is performed at a warranty station.
7. HFT is liable for damages to other engine or equipment
components proximately caused by a failure under warranty of any
warranted part.
8. Throughout the outdoor engine and equipment warranty period
stated above, HFT will maintain a supply of warranted parts
sufficient to meet the expected demand for such parts.
9. Any replacement part may be used in the performance of any
warranty maintenance or repairs and must be provided without
charge to the owner. Such use will not reduce the warranty
obligations of HFT.
10. Add-on or modified parts that are not exempted by the Air
Resources Board may not be used. The use of any non-exempted
add-on or modified parts by the ultimate purchaser will be grounds
for disallowing a warranty claim. HFT will not be liable to warrant
failures of warranted parts caused by the use of a non-exempted
add-on or modified part.
WARRANTED PARTS
The repair or replacement of any warranted part otherwise eligible
for warranty coverage may be excluded from such warranty coverage
if HFT demonstrates that the outdoor equipment has been abused,
neglected, or improperly maintained, and that such abuse, neglect,
or improper maintenance was the direct cause of the need for repair
or replacement of the part. That notwithstanding, any adjustment
of a component that has a factory installed, and properly operating,
adjustment limiting device is still eligible for warranty coverage. Further,
the coverage under this warranty extends only to parts that were
present on the outdoor equipment purchased.
