Emission System Warranty Statement

Your Warranty Rights and Obligations

The California Air Resources Board, the U.S. Environ-

mental Protection Agency and Shindaiwa Inc. are pleased 
to explain the exhaust and evaporative emission control 
system warranty on your new small off-road (non-road) 
engine.

In California, new small off-road engines must be 

designed, built, and equipped to meet the State’s stringent 
anti-smog standards. In other states, new 1997 and later 
non-road engines must meet the Federal EPA’s stringent 
anti-smog standards. 

Shindaiwa Inc. must warrant the emission control sys-

tem on your small off-road engine for the periods of time 
listed below, provided there has been no abuse, neglect, 
or improper maintenance of your small off-road engine.

Your engine exhaust and evaporative emission control 

system includes parts such as the carburetor, fuel tank, 
the ignition system and, if equipped, the catalytic con-
verter. These components are specifically listed below.

Where a warrantable condition exists, Shindaiwa Inc. 

will repair your small off-road engine at no cost to you 
including diagnosis, parts, and labor.
