AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE ABOUT TEMPERATURE:
Your Firman Power Equipment product is designed and rated for continuous operation at
ambient temperatures up to 40°C (104°F). When your product is needed, your product may be
operated at temperatures ranging from -15°C (5°F) to 50°C (122°F) for short periods. If the
product is exposed to temperatures outside this range during storage, it should be brought back
within this range before operation. In any event, the product must always be operated outdoors,
in a well-ventilated area and away from doors, windows and other vents.
•• When operated above 77°F(25°C) there may be a decrease in power.
Maximum wattage and current are subject to and limited by such factors as fuel BTU content
ambient temperature, altitude, engine condition and etc. Maximum power decreases about
3.5% for each 1,000 feet above sea level; and will also decrease about 1% for each 10°F(6°C)

FIRMAN POWER EQUIPMENT INC.
Emission Control System Warranty
CALIFORNIA AND FEDERAL EXHAUST AND EVAPORATIVE EMISSIONS CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
The California Air Resources Board, US Environmental Protection Agency (“US EPA”) and FIRMAN POWER EQUIPMENT
INC.(FIRMAN) are pleased to explain the emissions control systems warranty on your 2019-2020 or later Small Off-Road
Engine (“SORE”) and engine powered equipment. In California, new equipment that use small off-road engines must be
designed, built and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog standards. FIRMAN must warrant the emissions control
systems on your SORE and engine powered equipment for the periods of time listed below provided there has been no abuse,
neglect or improper maintenance of your small off-road engine or equipment leading to the failure of the emissions control system.
Your emissions control system may include parts such as the carburetor or fuel-injection system, the ignition system, catalytic
converter, fuel tanks, fuel lines (for liquid fuel and fuel vapors), fuel caps, valves, canisters, filters, clamps and other associated
components. Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors, and other emission-related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, FIRMAN will repair your SORE and engine powered equipment at no cost to you
including diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY COVERAGE:
The exhaust and evaporative emissions control system on your small off-road engine and engine powered equipment is warranted
for two years. If any emissions-related part on your small off-road engine and engine powered equipment is defective, the part will
be repaired or replaced by FIRMAN.
OWNER'S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the SORE and engine powered equipment owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance
listed in your owner's manual. FIRMAN recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your SORE and
engine powered equipment, but FIRMAN cannot deny warranty coverage solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to
ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.
As the SORE and engine powered equipment owner, you should however be aware that FIRMAN may deny you warranty
coverage if your small off-road engine or engine powered equipment or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, or improper
maintenance or unapproved modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your small off-road engine and engine powered equipment to a FIRMAN distribution center
or service center as soon as the problem exists. The warranty repairs shall be completed in a reasonable amount of time,
not to exceed 30 days.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact FIRMAN at 1-844-347-6261
or support@firmanpowerequipment.com.
FIRMAN Emission Control Defects Warranty Provisions
The warranty period begins on the date the engine/equipment is delivered to an ultimate purchaser. FIRMAN warrants to the ultimate
purchaser and each subsequent purchaser that the engine is:
Designed, built, and equipped so as to conform with all applicable regulations adopted by the Air Resources Board and US EPA;
and Free from defects in materials and workmanship that cause the failure of a warranted part to be identical in all material
respects to the part as described in the engine manufacturers application for certification.
The warranty on emissions-related parts is as follows:
(1) Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the owner's manual supplied, is
warranted for the warranty period stated above. If any such part fails during the period of warranty coverage, the part will be
repaired or replaced by FIRMAN at no charge to the owner. Any such part repaired or replaced under the warranty will be
warranted for the remaining warranty period.
(2) Any warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection in the owner's manual supplied, is warranted for the warranty
period stated above. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty will be warranted for the remaining warranty period.
(3) Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the owner's manual supplied, is 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 will be repaired or replaced by FIRMAN at no charge to the owner. Any such part repaired or replaced
under warranty will 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 by FIRMAN 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) FIRMAN is liable for damages to other engine components proximately caused by a failure under warranty of any
warranted part.
English Page 36 Customer Service: 1-844-FIRMAN1
(8) Throughout the emissions warranty period defined in Subsection (b)(2), FIRMAN will 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 by the ultimate purchaser 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.
