maintenance of your engine.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the
carburetor or fuel-injection system, and the ignition system. Also
included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other emissionrelated assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, HFT will repair your
engine at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.

Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities
As the engine owner, you are responsible for the performance •

solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the
performance of all scheduled maintenance.
As the engine owner, you should, however, be aware that •
HFT may deny you warranty coverage if your engine or a part
has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, or
unapproved modications.
You are responsible for shipping your engine to a HFT war-•
ranty station as soon as a problem exists. Contact the HFT
Customer Service department at the number below to make
shipping arrangements. The warranty repairs should be
completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed
30 days.

and responsibilities, you should contact the Harbor Freight Tools
Customer Service Department at 1-800-444-3353.
