The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA or EPA), the California Air Resources Board and
MAKITA are pleased to explain the emissions control system warranty on your 2015-2016* small off-road engine/
equipment. In California and the other 49 states, new small off-road engines/equipments must be designed, built,
and equipped to meet the stringent anti-smog standards. MAKITA must warrant the emissions control system on your
small off-road engine/equipment for the period of time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect or
improper maintenance of your small off-road engine/equipment.
Your emissions control system may include parts such as the carburetor, the ignition system, catalytic converter,
fuel tanks, fuel lines, fuel caps, valves, canisters, filters, vapor hoses, clamps, connectors, and other associated
emission-related components. For engines less than or equal to 80 cc, only the fuel tank is subject to the evaporative
emission control warranty requirements of this section (California only).
Where a warrantable condition exists, MAKITA will repair your small off-road engine/equipment at no cost to you
including diagnosis, parts and labor.

equipment is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by MAKITA.

OWNER'S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• As the small off-road engine/equipment owner, you are responsible for performance of the required maintenance
listed in your owner's manual. MAKITA recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your
small off-road engine/equipment but MAKITA cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your
failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.
• As the small off-road engine/equipment owner, you should however be aware that MAKITA may deny your
warranty coverage if your small off-road engine/equipment has failed due to abuse, neglect, or improper
maintenance or unapproved modifications.

center as soon as the problem exists. The warranty repairs will be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to
exceed 30 days. If you have a question regarding your warranty coverage, you should contact the MAKITA Warranty
Service Department at 1-800-4-MAKITA (462-5482).

first placed into service. The warranty period is two years.
GENERAL EMISSIONS WARRANTY COVERAGE:
MAKITA warrants to the ultimate purchaser and each subsequent purchaser that the small off-road engine/equipment
is designed, built and equipped so as to conform to all applicable regulations and free from defects in materials
