The warranty period begins on the date of purchase by the first retail consumer or commercial end user, and continues for the period of time stated in the table above.
“Consumer use” means personal residential household use by a retail consumer. “Commercial use” means all other uses, including use for commercial, income producing or
rental purposes. Once an engine has experienced commercial use, it shall thereafter be considered as a commercial use engine for purposes of this warranty.
No warranty registration is necessary to obtain warranty on Briggs & Stratton products. Save your proof of purchase receipt. If you do not provide proof of the
initial purchase date at the time warranty service is requested, the manufacturing date of the product will be used to determine the warranty period.
Briggs & Stratton welcomes warranty repair and apologizes to you for being
inconvenienced. Any Authorized Service Dealer may perform warranty repairs. Most
warranty repairs are handled
routinely, but sometimes requests for warranty service
may not be appr
opriate. To avoid misunderstanding which might occur between the
customer and the dealer, listed below are some of the causes of engine failure that
the warranty does not cover.
Normal wear: Engines, like all mechanical devices, need periodic parts service and
replacement to perform well. Warranty will not cover repair when normal use has
exhausted the life of a part or an engine. Warranty would not apply if engine damage
occurred because of misuse, lack of routine maintenance, shipping, handling,
warehousing or improper installation. Similarly, warranty is void if the serial number
Improper maintenance: The life of an engine depends upon the conditions under
which it operates, and the care it receives. Some applications, such as tillers, pumps
and rotary mowers, are very often used in dusty or dirty conditions, which can cause
what appears to be premature wear. Such wear, when caused by dirt, dust, spark
plug cleaning grit, or other abrasive material that has entered the engine because of
improper maintenance, is not covered by warranty.
This warranty covers engine related defective material and/or workmanship
only, and not replacement or refund of the equipment to which the engine
may be mounted. Nor does the warranty extend to repairs required because
of:
1. Problems caused by parts that are not original Briggs & Stratton parts.
2. Equipment controls or installations that prevent starting, cause unsatisfactory
engine performance, or shorten engine life.(Contact equipment manufacturer.)
3. Leaking carburetors, clogged fuel pipes, sticking valves, or other damage,
caused by using contaminated or stale fuel.
4. Parts which
are scored or broken because an engine was operated with
OIL GARD may not shut down running engine. Engine damage may occur if oil
level is not properly maintained.
5. Repair or adjustment of associated parts or assemblies such as clutches,
transmissions, remote controls, etc., which are not manufactured by Briggs
& Stratton.
6. Damage or wear to parts caused by dirt, which entered the engine because
of improper air cleaner maintenance, re-assembly, or use of a non-original air
cleaner element or cartridge. At recommended intervals, clean and/or replace
7. Parts damaged by over-speeding, or overheating caused by grass, debris, or
engine debris at recommended intervals as stated in the Operator’s Manual.
8. Engine or equipment parts broken by excessive vibration caused by a
loose engine mounting, loose cutter blades, unbalanced blades or loose or
unbalanced impellers, improper attachment of equipment to engine crankshaft,
over-speeding or other abuse in operation.
9. A bent or broken crankshaft, caused by striking a solid object with the cutter
blade of a rotary lawn mower, or excessive v-belt tightness.
10. Routine tune-up or adjustment of the engine.
11. Engine or engine component failure, i.e., combustion chamber, valves, valve
seats, valve guides, or burned starter motor windings, caused by the use of
