WARRANTy
The EPA and SUMEC MACHINERY & ELECTRIC CO. LTD. are pleased
to explain the emission (where “emissions” is understood to mean both
exhaust and evaporative emissions) control system warranty on your
2009 model year small off-road engine (SORE). In USA, new SORE must
be designed, built, and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog
standards. SUMEC MACHINERY & ELECTRIC CO. LTD. must warrant
the ECS on your SORE for the period of time listed below provided there
has been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your SORE.
Your ECS 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, SUMEC MACHINERY & ELECTRIC
CO. LTD. will repair your SORE at no cost to you including diagnosis,
parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTy COVERAGE:
This emission (or emissions) control system is warranted for two years. If
any emission-related part on your equipment is defective, the part will be
repaired or replaced by SUMEC MACHINERY & ELECTRIC CO. LTD.
OWNER’S WARRANTy RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the SORE owner, you are responsible for performance of the required
maintenance listed in your operator’s manual. SUMEC MACHINERY &
ELECTRIC CO. LTD. recommends that you retain all receipts covering
maintenance on your SORE, but SUMEC MACHINERY & ELECTRIC CO.
LTD. cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts.
As the SORE owner, you should however be aware that SUMEC
MACHINERY & ELECTRIC CO. LTD. may deny you warranty coverage
if your SORE or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, or improper
maintenance or unapproved modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your SORE to SUMEC MACHIN-
ERY & ELECTRIC CO. LTD.’s distribution center or service center
as soon as the problem exists. The warranty repairs should be com-
pleted in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days. If
you have a question regarding your warranty coverage, you should
contact Sunright International of America at 770-729-9065, or write
to the following address: Sunright International of America, Inc.,
5965 Peachtree Corners E. Ste C-3, Norcross, GA 30071. ATTENTION

SUMEC MACHINERY & ELECTRIC CO. LTD. warrants to the ultimate
purchaser and each subsequent purchaser that the SORE is:
 Designed, built and equipped so as to conform with all applicable
regulations; and
 Free from defects in materials and workmanship that cause the fail-
ure of a warranted part to be identical in all material respects to that
part as described in SUMEC MACHINERY & ELECTRIC CO. LTD.’s
application for certification.
The warranty period begins on the date the SORE 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 war-
ranty 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 war-
ranty period stated above. If the part fails during the period of warranty
coverage, the part will be repaired or replaced by SUMEC MACHINERY
& ELECTRIC CO. LTD. According to subsection (4) below. Any such part
repaired or replaced under warranty will be warranted for the remainder
of the period.

ranty maintenance or repairs and must be provided without charge to
the owner. Such use will not reduce the warranty obligations of SUMEC
MACHINERY & ELECTRIC CO. LTD.
(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

claims. SUMEC MACHINERY & ELECTRIC CO. LTD. will not be liable to
warrant failures of warranted parts caused by the use of a non-exempted
add-on or modified part.
