DEFECTS WARRANTY REQUIREMENTS: 

(a)  The warranty period begins on the date the engine or equipment is delivered to an ultimate purchaser. 

(b)  General Emissions Warranty Coverage. 

Makita USA, Inc

 must warrant to the ultimate purchaser and each subsequent owner that the 

engine or equipment is: 

(1)   Designed, built, and equipped so as to conform with all applicable regulations adopted by the Air Resources Board; and 

(2)   Free from defects in materials and workmanship that causes the failure of a warranted part for a period of two years. 

(c) The warranty on emissions-related parts will be interpreted as follows: 

(1)   Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the written instructions required by subsection (d) 

must be warranted for the warranty period defined in Subsection (b) (2). If any such part fails during the period of warranty coverage, 

it must be repaired or replaced by the manufacturer according to Subsection (4) below. Any such part repaired or replaced under the 

warranty must be warranted for the remaining warranty period. 

(2)   Any warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection in the written instructions required by subsection (d) must be 

warranted for the warranty period defined in Subsection (b) (2). A statement in such written instructions to the effect of “repair or 

replace as necessary” will not reduce the period of warranty coverage. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty must be 

warranted for the remaining warranty period. 

(3)   Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the written instructions required by subsection 

(d) must be 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 must be repaired or replaced by the engine manufacturer according to Subsection (4) below. 

Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty must be warranted for the remainder of the period prior to the first scheduled 

replacement point for the part. 

(4)   Repair or replacement of any warranted part under the warranty must be performed at no charge to the owner at a warranty station. 

(5)   Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection (4) above, warranty services or repairs must be provided at all manufacturer distribution 

centers that are franchised to service the subject engines. 

(6)   The owner must not be charged for diagnostic labor that leads to the determination that a warranted part is in fact defective, provided 

that such diagnostic work is performed at a warranty station. 

(7)   The manufacturer is liable for damages to other engine components proximately caused by a failure under warranty of any warranted 

part. 

(8)   Throughout the emissions warranty period defined in Subsection (b) (2), the manufacturer must maintain a supply of warranted parts 

sufficient to meet the expected demand for such parts. 

(9)   Any replacement part may be used in the performance of any warranty maintenance or repairs and must be provided without charge to 

the owner. Such use will not reduce the warranty obligations of the manufacturer. 

(10)  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 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. 

(11)   The manufacturer issuing the warranty shall provide any documents that describe that manufacturer’s warranty procedures or policies 

within five working days of request by the Air Resources Board. 

(d) Emission Warranty Parts List. 

(1)  Fuel Metering System
