Protection Agency and POULAN/WEED
EATER, DIVISION OF WCI OUTDOOR
PRODUCTS are pleased to explain the
emissions control system warranty on your
lawn and garden equipment engine. All new
utility and lawn and garden equipment en-
gines must be designed, built, and equipped
to meet the stringent anti--smog standards.
POULAN/WEED EATER must warrant the
emission control system on your lawn and
garden equipment engine for the periods of
time listed below provided there has been no
abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance of
your lawn and garden equipment engine.
Your emission control system includes parts
such as the carburetor and the ignition sys-
tem. Where a warrantable condition exits,
POULAN/WEED EATER will repair your
lawn and garden equipment engine at no
cost to you. Expenses covered under war-
ranty include diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY COV-
ERAGE: If any emissions related part on
your engine (as listed under Emissions Con-
trol Warranty Parts List) is defective or a de-
fect in the materials or workmanship of the
engine causes the failure of such an emis-
sion related part, the part will be repaired or
replaced by POULAN/WEED EATER.
OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILI-
TIES: As the lawn and garden equipment en-
gine owner, you are responsible for the per-
formance of the required maintenance listed
in your Owner’s Manual. POULAN/WEED
EATER recommends that you retain all re-
ceipts covering maintenance on your lawn
and garden equipment engine, but POU-
LAN/WEED EATER cannot deny warranty
solely for the lack of receipts or for your fail-
ure to ensure the performance of all sched-
uled maintenance. As the lawn and garden
equipment engine owner, you should be
aware that POULAN/WEED EATER may
deny you warranty coverage if your lawn and
garden equipment engine or a part of it has
failed due to abuse, neglect, improper main-
tenance, unapproved modifications, or the
use of parts not made or approved by the
original equipment manufacturer. You are
responsible for presenting your lawn and
garden equipment engine to a POULAN/
WEED EATER authorized repair center as
soon as a problem exists. 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 con-
tact your nearest authorized service center
or call POULAN/WEED EATER at
1--800--554--6723. WARRANTY COM-
MENCEMENT DATE: The warranty period
begins on the date the lawn and garden
equipment engine is purchased. LENGTH
OF COVERAGE: This warranty shall be for
a period of two years from the initial date of
purchase. WHAT IS COVERED: REPAIR
OR REPLACEMENT OF PARTS. Repair or
replacement of any warranted part will be
performed at no charge to the owner at an
approved POULAN/WEED EATER servic-
ing center. If you have any questions regard-
ing your warranty rights and responsibilities,
you should contact your nearest authorized
service center or call POULAN/WEED EAT-
ER at 1--800--554--6723 WARRANTY PE-
RIOD: Any warranted part which is not
scheduled for replacement as required
maintenance, or which is scheduled only for
regular inspection to the effect of “repair or
replace as necessary” shall be warranted for
2 years. Any warranted part which is sched-
uled for replacement as required mainte-
nance shall be warranted for the period of
time up to the first scheduled replacement
point for that part. DIAGNOSIS: The owner
shall not be charged for diagnostic labor
which leads to the determination that a war-
ranted part is defective if the diagnostic work
is performed at an approved POULAN/
WEED EATER servicing center. CONSE-
QUENTIAL DAMAGES: POULAN/WEED
EATER may be liable for damages to other
engine components caused by the failure of
a warranted part still under warranty. WHAT
IS NOT COVERED: All failures caused by
abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance
are not covered. ADD--ON OR MODIFIED
PARTS: The use of add--on or modified parts
can be grounds for disallowing a warranty
claim. POULAN/WEED EATER is not liable to
cover failures of warranted parts caused by
the use of add--on or modified parts. HOW
TO FILE A CLAIM: If you have any ques-
tions regarding your warranty rights and re-
sponsibilities, you should contact your near-
est authorized service center or call POU-
