WARRANTY
GENERAL:
Craftsman products are warranted to be free from defects in materials
or workmanship for a specific time period as set-out below (the “Warranty Period”).
Warranties extend to the original purchaser of a Craftsman product only. Purchases
made through an online auction or through any website other than www.sears.ca are
excluded. The relevant Warranty Period commences on the original date of purchase.
Within this period, Sears Canada, Inc. will, at its sole option, repair or replace any
products or components which fail in normal use. Such repairs or replacement will be
made at no charge to the customer for parts or labor, provided that the customer shall be
responsible for any transportation cost.
EXCLUSIONS:
This warranty does not cover failures due to normal wear, abuse, misuse,
neglect (including but not limited to the use of stale fuel, dirt, abrasives, moisture, rust,
corrosion, or any adverse reaction due to improper storage or use habits), improper
maintenance or failure to follow maintenance guidelines and/or instructions, failure to
operate the product in accordance with the owner’s manual or any additional instructions
or information provided at the time of purchase or in subsequent communications with
the original purchaser, accident or unauthorized alterations or repairs made or attempted
by others. Also excluded from warranty coverage – except as provided below - are
the following: maintenance, adjustments, components subject to wear including but
not limited to: cosmetic components, belts, blades, blade adapters, bulbs, tires, filters,
guide bars, lubricants, seats, grips, recoil assy’s, saw chains and bars, trimmer lines and
spools, spark plugs, starter ropers and tines, and discoloration resulting from ultraviolet
light. Any product missing the model and/or serial number identification label will be
disqualified from coverage under this warranty.
REPAIRS:
Repairs have a 90 day warranty. If the defective product is still within the
Warranty Period, then the new warranty is 90 days from the date of repair or to the end of
the original Warranty Period, whichever period is longer.
DISCLAIMERS:
THE WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES CONTAINED HEREIN ARE
EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER ORAL OR
WRITTEN (OTHER THAN AS STATED HEREIN), AND WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED
OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY. THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU
SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, WHICH MAY VARY FROM PROVINCE TO PROVINCE.
IN NO EVENT SHALL SEARS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT
OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, WHETHER RESULTING FROM THE USE, MISUSE
OR INABILITY TO USE THE PRODUCT OR FROM DEFECTS IN THE PRODUCT. THE
EXCLUSIONS IN THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL NOT APPLY IN JURISDICATIONS WHERE
APPLICABLE LAW DOES NOT ALLOW FOR THE EXCLUSION OF INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. IN SUCH JURISDICTIONS, THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL
NOT APPLY, BUT THE REMAINING PROVISIONS OF THIS DOCUMENT SHALL REMAIN
VALID.
Sears retains the exclusive right to repair or replace the product or offer a full refund of
the purchase price at its sole discretion. SUCH REMEDY SHALL BE YOUR SOLE AND
EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY BREACH OF WARRANTY.
CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITIES:
In additional to complying with all suggested
maintenance guidelines and instructions, customers’ obligations shall include but shall
not be limited to: operating the product in accordance with the owner’s manual or any
additional instructions or information provided at the time of purchase or in subsequent
communications to the purchaser from time to time, exhibit reasonable care in the use,
operation, maintenance, general upkeep and storage of the product. Failure to comply
with these requirements will void any applicable warranty.

Only Honda approved replacement parts may be used in the performance of any warranty repairs
and must be provided without charge to the owner. The use of replacement parts not equivalent
to the original parts may impair the effectiveness of your engine emission control system. If such
a replacement part is used in the repair or maintenance of your engine, and an authorized Honda
dealer determines it is defective or causes a failure of a warranted part, your claim for repair of
your engine may be denied. If the part in question is not related to the reason your engine requires
repair, your claim will not be denied.
TO OBTAIN WARRANTY SERVICE:
You must, at your own expense, take your Honda Power Equipment engine or the product on
which it is installed, along with your sales registration card or other proof of original purchase date,
to any Honda Power Equipment dealer who is authorized by Honda to sell and service that Honda
product during his normal business hours. Claims for repair or adjustment found to be caused
solely by defects in material or workmanship will not be denied because the engine was not prop-
erly maintained and used.
If you are unable to obtain emission warranty service or are dissatisfied with the warranty service
you received, contact the owner of the dealership involved. Normally this should resolve your
problem. However, if you require further assistance, contact the Honda office in your region:
American Honda Motor Co., Inc. / Honda Canada Inc. 10/2009 00X51-ZG0-6110 PWL50975-M
EXCLUSIONS:
Failures other than those resulting from defects in material or workmanship are not covered by this
warranty. This warranty does not extend to emission control systems or parts that are affected or dam-
aged by owner abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, misuse, misfueling, improper storage, colli-
sion, the incorporation of, or use of, unsuitable attachments, or the unauthorized alteration of any part.
This warranty does not cover replacement of expendable maintenance items made in connec-
tion with required maintenance service after the item’s first scheduled replacement as listed in the
maintenance section of the product owner’s manual, such as: spark plugs and filters.
Disclaimer of Consequential Damage and Limitation of Implied Warranties:
American Honda Motor Co., Inc. and Honda Canada Inc. disclaim any responsibility for inciden-
tal or consequential damages such as loss of time or the use of the power equipment, or any
commercial loss due to the failure of the equipment; and any implied warranties are limited to the
duration of this written warranty. This warranty is applicable only where the California, U.S. EPA, or
Environment Canada emission control system warranty regulation is in effect.
