GARDEN AND UTILITY ENGINES
The California Air Resources Board, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and Maruyama US., Inc.
(hereinafter "Maruyama") are pleased to explain the Emission Control System Warranty on your Maruyama Lawn
and Garden and Utility engine. In California, new Lawn and Garden and Utility engines produced after January 1,
1995 must be designed, build and equipped to meet the state's stringent anti-smog standards. In other states, new
1997 and later model your Lawn and Garden and Utility engines must meet the U.S. EPA Phase One regulations for
small non-road engines. Maruyama must warrant the emission control system on your Lawn and Garden Utility
engine for the period of time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of
your Lawn and Garden and Utility engine. Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor
and ignition system. Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other emission related assemblies that are
a part of the Lawn and Garden and Utility engine. Where a warrantable condition exists, Maruyama will repair your
Lawn and Garden and Utility engine at no cost to you including diagnosis (if the diagnostic work is performed at a
Maruyama Lawn and Garden and Utility engine dealer), parts and labor.
OWNERS WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES: The following obligations must be fulfilled by the owner to maintain
the validity of the Maruyama California / EPA Phase One Emissions Systems Warranty:
(a) As the Lawn and Garden and Utility engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required
maintenance listed in your owner's manual. Maruyama recommends that you retain all receipts covering
maintenance on your Lawn and Garden and Utility engine, but Maruyama cannot deny warranty solely for
the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.
(b) You are responsible for presenting your Lawn and Garden and Utility engine to an authorized Maruyama
Lawn and Garden and Utility engine dealer as soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should be
completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
(c) As the Lawn and Garden and Utility engine owner, you should also be aware that Maruyama may deny you
warranty coverage if your Lawn and Garden and Utility engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect,
improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
(d) If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact Maruyama
U.S., INC., Product and Marketing Division, 301 30th Street NE, Suite 118, Auburn, WA 98002 (253) 735-
7368 or in the case of California residents, you may contact, the California Air Resources Board, 9528
Telstar Avenue, EL Monte, California 91731.
1. COVERAGE. Maruyama warrants to the initial owner and each subsequent purchaser that the Lawn and Garden
and Utility engine is free from defects in materials and workmanship which cause a failure of a warranted part for a
period of two years. Maruyama is liable for damages to other engine components caused by the failure of a
warranted part still under warranty. The 1995 and later model year Lawn and Garden and Utility engines are
warranted part still under warranty. In all other states, 1997 and later model year Lawn and Garden and Utility
engines are warranted for two years. If any emission-related part on your engine is defective, the part will be
repaired or replaced by Maruyama. This warranty time period shall begin on the date the Lawn and Garden and
Utility engine is delivered to the initial purchaser, or on the date the Lawn and Garden and Utility engine is first
placed in serves.
