GENERAC POWER SYSTEMS’

TWO-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY FOR GT SERIES ENGINES

For a period of 2 (two) years of operation from the date of original sale, Generac Power Systems, Inc. (Generac) will, at its option, repair
or replace any part which, upon examination, inspection and testing by Generac or a Generac Authorized Warranty Service Dealer, is
found to be defective under normal use and service, in accordance with the warranty schedule set forth below. Any equipment that the
purchaser/owner claims to be defective must be returned to and examined by the nearest Generac Authorized Warranty Service Dealer.
All transportation costs under the warranty, including return to the factory, are to be borne and prepaid by the purchaser/owner. This
warranty applies only to Generac GT engines sold and rated for GT engine applications, as Generac has defined GT engine applications.
This warranty pertains only to the GT engines utilized to power equipment within the lawn and garden industry. Examples include, but
are not limited to, portable generators, pressure washers, air compressors, welders, lawn tractors and mowers, snow blowers, edgers
and pumps. THIS WARRANTY IS NOT TRANSFERABLE.

WARRANTY SCHEDULE

GT engines bound for export outside of North America shall be warranted for a period of 1 (one) year for 
consumer/personal applications and 90 (ninety) days for commercial applications.

CONSUMER/COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS

YEAR ONE - 100% (one hundred percent) coverage on part(s) and labor as listed (proof of purchase required):
Engine - All components

YEAR TWO - 100% (one hundred percent) coverage on part(s) ONLY as listed (proof of purchase required):
Engine - All components

All warranty expense allowances are subject to the conditions defined in Generac’s Warranty Policies, Procedures and Flat Rate Manual
for engines.

THIS WARRANTY SHALL NOT APPLY TO THE FOLLOWING:

Generac engines that utilize non-Generac replacement parts.

Costs of normal maintenance, adjustments, installation and start-up.

Failures caused by any contaminated fuels, oils, or lack of proper fluid amounts.

Failures due, but not limited, to normal wear and tear, accident, misuse, abuse, negligence or improper installation. As with all
mechanical devices, the GT-Series engines need periodic part(s) service and replacement to perform well. This warranty will not
cover repair when normal use has exhausted the life of a part(s) or engine.

Failures caused by any external cause or act of God, such as collision, theft, vandalism, riot or wars, nuclear holocaust, fire, freezing,
lightning, earthquake, windstorm, hail, volcanic eruption, water or flood, tornado or hurricane.

Products that are modified or altered in a manner not authorized by Generac in writing.

Any incidental, consequential or indirect damages caused by defects in materials or workmanship, or any delay in repair or
replacement of the defective part(s).

Engines used for generators that are utilized as “Prime Power” in place of existing utility power where utility is present or in place of
utility power where utility power service does not normally exist.

Failure due to misapplication.

Telephone, cellular phone, facsimile, internet access or other communication expenses.

Living or travel expenses of person(s) performing service, except as specifically included within the terms of a specific unit warranty
period.

Expenses related to “customer instruction” or troubleshooting where no manufacturing defect is found.

Rental equipment used while warranty repairs are being performed.

Overnight freight costs for replacement part(s).

Overtime labor.

Starting batteries, fuses, light bulbs and engine fluids.

THIS WARRANTY IS IN PLACE OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED. SPECIFICALLY, GENERAC MAKES NO
OTHER WARRANTIES AS TO THE MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Some states do not allow
limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.

GENERAC’S ONLY LIABILITY SHALL BE THE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF PART(S) AS STATED ABOVE. IN NO EVENT SHALL
GENERAC BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF SUCH DAMAGES ARE A DIRECT
RESULT OF GENERAC’S NEGLIGENCE. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages,
so the above limitation may not apply to you. Purchaser/owner agrees to make no claims against Generac based on negligence.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights. You also may have other rights that vary from state to state.
