CALIFORNIA AND FEDERAL EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
The California Air Resources Board, the United States Environmental Protection Agency
and CARDINAL are pleased to explain the emissions control system warranty on your
2018-2019 small engine/equipment (SORE). In the United States and California, new
small engine/equipment must be designed, built and equipped to meet the State's
stringent anti-smog standards. CARDINAL must warrant the emissions control system on
your small engine/equipment for the periods of time listed below provided there has
been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your small engine/equipment.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor, fuel-injection
system, the ignition system, catalytic convertor, fuel tanks, fuel lines, fuel caps, valves,
canisters, filters, vapor hoses, belts, clamps, connectors, and other associated emission-
related components. For engines less than or equal to 80 cc, only the fuel tank is subject
to the evaporative emission control warranty requirements of this section.
(California only)
Where a warrantable condition exists, CARDINAL will repair your small off-road engine/
equipment at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY COVERAGE:
The emissions control system is warranted for two years. If any emissions-related part on
your small engine/equipment is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced
by CARDINAL
OWNER'S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the small engine/equipment owner, you are responsible for the performance of the
required maintenance listed in your owner's manual. CARDINAL recommends that you
retain all receipts covering maintenance on your small engine/equipment, but
CARDINAL cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to
ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.
As the small engine/equipment owner, you should however be aware that CARDINAL
may deny your warranty coverage if your small engine/equipment or a part has failed
due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your small engine/equipment to distribution center or
service center authorized by CARDINAL as soon as the problem exists. The warranty
repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
