emission control system may include parts such as: carburetors, fuel tanks, fuel lines, fuel
caps, valves, canisters, filters, vapor hoses, clamps, connectors, and other associated
components.
Where a warrantable condition exists, B&S will repair your engine/equipment at no cost
to you including diagnosis, parts, and labor.
Manufacturer's Warranty Coverage:
Small off-road engines and large spark ignited engines less than or equal to 1.0 liter, and
any related emissions components of the equipment, are warranted for two years, or for
the time period listed in the respective engine or product warranty statement, whichever
is greater. If any emissions-related part on your B&S engine/equipment is defective, the
part will be repaired or replaced by B&S.
Owner's Warranty Responsibilities:
• As the engine/equipment owner, you are responsible for the performance of the
required maintenance listed in your Operator's Manual. B&S recommends that you
retain all receipts covering maintenance on your engine/equipment, but B&S cannot
deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or your failure to ensure the performance
of all scheduled maintenance.
• As the engine/equipment owner, you should however be aware that B&S may deny
you warranty coverage if your engine/equipment or a part has failed due to abuse,
neglect, improper maintenance, or unapproved modifications.
• You are responsible for presenting your engine/equipment to a B&S distribution
center, servicing dealer, or other equivalent entity, as applicable, as soon as a 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 B&S at 1-800-444-7774 (in USA) or

Briggs & Stratton Emissions Control Warranty Provisions
The following are specific provisions relative to your Emissions Control Warranty Coverage.
It is in addition to the B&S engine warranty for non-regulated engines found in the Operator's
Manual.
1. Warranted Emissions Parts
Coverage under this warranty extends only to the parts listed below (the emissions
control systems parts) to the extent these parts were present on the B&S engine
and/or B&S supplied fuel system.
a. Fuel Metering System
• Cold start enrichment system (soft choke)
• Carburetor or fuel injection system
• Oxygen sensor
• Electronic control unit
• Fuel pump module
• Fuel line, fuel line fittings, clamps
• Fuel tank, cap and tether
• Carbon canister
b. Air Induction System
• Air cleaner
• Intake manifold
• Purge and vent line
c. Ignition System
• Spark plug(s)
• Magneto ignition system
d. Catalyst System
• Catalytic converter
• Exhaust manifold
• Air injection system or pulse value
e. Miscellaneous Items Used in Above Systems
• Vacuum, temperature, position, time sensitive valves and switches
• Connectors and assemblies
2. Length of Coverage
Coverage is for a period of two years from date of original purchase, or for the time
period listed in the respective engine or product warranty statement, whichever is
greater. B&S warrants to the original purchaser and each subsequent purchaser that
the engine is designed, built, and equipped so as to conform with all applicable
regulations adopted by the Air Resources Board; that it is free from defects in material
and workmanship that could cause the failure of a warranted part; and that it is
identical in all material respects to the engine described in the manufacturer's
application for certification. The warranty period begins on the date the engine is
originally purchased.

The warranty on emissions-related parts is as follows:
• Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required
maintenance in the Operator's Manual supplied, is warranted for the warranty
period stated above. If any such part fails during the period of warranty
coverage, the part will be repaired or replaced by B&S at no charge to the
owner. Any such part repaired or replaced under the warranty will be warranted
for the remaining warranty period.
• Any warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection in the Operator's
Manual 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.
• Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance
in the Operator's Manual supplied, is warranted for the period of time prior to
the first scheduled replacement point for that part. If the part fails prior to the
first scheduled replacement, the part will be repaired or replaced by B&S at no
charge to the owner. 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.
• 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 owner will be grounds for disallowing a warranty claim. The manufacturer
will not be liable to warrant failures of warranted parts caused by the use of a
non-exempted add-on or modified part.
3. Consequential Coverage
Coverage shall extend to the failure of any engine components caused by the failure
of any warranted emissions parts.
4. Claims and Coverage Exclusions
Warranty claims shall be filed according to the provisions of the B&S engine warranty
policy. Warranty coverage does not apply to failures of emissions parts that are not
original equipment B&S parts or to parts that fail due to abuse, neglect, or improper
maintenance as set forth in the B&S engine warranty policy. B&S is not liable for
warranty coverage of failures of emissions parts caused by the use of add-on or
modified parts.
Look For Relevant Emissions Durability Period and Air Index
Information On Your Small Off-Road Engine Emissions Label
Engines that are certified to meet the California Air Resources Board (CARB) small off-
road Emissions Standard must display information regarding the Emissions Durability
Period and the Air Index. Briggs & Stratton makes this information available to the consumer
on our emissions labels. The engine emissions label will indicate certification information.
The Emissions Durability Period describes the number of hours of actual running time
for which the engine is certified to be emissions compliant, assuming proper maintenance
in accordance with the Operator's Manual. The following categories are used:
Moderate:
Engines at or less than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for 50
hours of actual engine running time. Engines greater than 80 cc displacement are certified
to be emissions compliant for 125 hours of actual engine running time.
Intermediate:
Engines at or less than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for 125
hours of actual engine running time. Engines greater than 80 cc displacement are certified
to be emissions compliant for 250 hours of actual engine running time.
Extended:
Engines at or less than 80 cc displacement are certified to be emissions compliant for 300
hours of actual engine running time. Engines greater than 80 cc displacement are certified
to be emissions compliant for 500 hours of actual engine running time.
For example, a typical walk-behind lawn mower is used 20 to 25 hours per year. Therefore,
the Emissions Durability Period of an engine with an intermediate rating would equate
to 10 to 12 years.
Briggs & Stratton engines are certified to meet the United States Environmental Protection
Agency (USEPA) Phase 2 or Phase 3 emissions standards. The Emissions Compliance
Period referred to on the Emissions Compliance label indicates the number of operating
hours for which the engine has been shown to meet Federal emissions requirements.
For engines at or less than 80 cc displacement:
Category C = 50 hours, Category B = 125 hours, Category A = 300 hours
For engines greater than 80 cc displacement and less than 225 cc displacement:
Category C = 125 hours, Category B = 250 hours, Category A = 500 hours
For engines of 225 cc or more displacement:
Category C = 250 hours, Category B = 500 hours, Category A = 1000 hours
