FEDERAL AND CALIFORNIA EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT

YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), California Air Resources Board (CARB) and Wright Manufacturing,
Inc. (WMI) are pleased to explain the evaporative emission control system (EECS) warranty on your 2012 - 2013 commercial
mower. In the United States, new equipment that use small off-road engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet the
Federal’s stringent evaporative emissions standards. In California, new equipment that use small off-road engines must be
designed, built and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog standards. WMI must warrant the EECS on your
commercial mower for the period of time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of
your equipment.

Your EECS may include parts such as the carburetor, fuel-injection system, the 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, WMI will repair your commercial mower at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and
labor.


MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY COVERAGE:

This evaporative emission control system is warranted for two years. If any evaporative emission-related part on your
equipment is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by WMI.

OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:

As the commercial mower owner, you are responsible for performance of the required maintenance listed in your
owner’s manual. WMI recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your commercial mower but
WMI cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts.

As the commercial mower owner, you should however be aware that WMI may deny you warranty coverage if your
commercial mower or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.

You are responsible for presenting your commercial mower to WMI’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 a question regarding your warranty coverage, you should contact WMI’s warranty claims
department at (301) 360-9810.


GENERAL EMISSIONS WARRANTY COVERAGE:

WMI warrants to the ultimate purchaser and each subsequent purchaser that the commercial mower 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 to be identical in all material
respects to that part as described in WMI’s application for certification.

The warranty period begins on the date the commercial mower is delivered to an ultimate purchaser or first placed into
service. The warranty period is two years.
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 WMI 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 WMI 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.
