ABOUT YOUR ENGINE WARRANTY
Briggs & Stratton welcomes warranty repair and apologizes to
you for being inconvenienced. Any Authorized Service Dealer
may perform warranty repairs. Most warranty repairs are han
dled routinely, but sometimes requests for warranty service
may not be appropriate. For example, warranty would not apply
if engine damage occurred because of misuse, lack of routine
maintenance, shipping, handling, warehousing or improper
installation. Similarly, warranty is void if the serial number of the
engine has been removed or the engine has been altered or
modified.
If a customer differs with the decision of the Service Dealer, an
investigation will be made to determine whether the warranty
applies. Ask the Service Dealer to submit all supporting facts to
his Distributor or the Factory for review. If the Distributor or the
Factory decides that the claim is justified, the customer will be
fully reimbursed for those items that are defective. To avoid mis
understanding which might occur between the customer and
the Dealer, listed below are some of the causes of engine failure
that the warranty does not cover.
Normal wear:
Engines, like all mechanical devices, need periodic parts ser
vice and replacement to perform well. Warranty will not cover
repair when normal use has exhausted the life of a part or an
engine.
Improper maintenance:
The life of an engine depends upon the conditions under which it
operates, and the care it receives. Some applications, such as
tillers, pumps and rotary mowers, are very often used in dusty or
dirty conditions, which can cause what appears to be premature
wear. Such wear, when caused by dirt, dust, spark plug cleaning
