Resources Board may not be used. The use of any nonexempted

disallowing a warranty claim. The manufacturer will not be liable
to warrant failures of warranted parts caused by the use of a
nonexempted add on or modified part.
These items will be covered for a period of two years from the
date of the original purchase. Viper warrants that: the compo-
nents are designed, built and equipped so as to conform with all
applicable regulations adopted by the EPA; that they are free from
defects in material and workmanship that could cause failure to
the engine or other; and that the components used are identical in
all material respects to the engine described in the manufacturer's
application for certification. The warranty period begins on the
date the engine is originally purchased.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR REQUIREMENTS
The owner is responsible for the proper use and maintenance
of the engine. Northern Tool + Equipment recommends that all
receipts and records covering the performance of regular mainte-
nance be retained in case questions arise. If the engine is resold
during the warranty period, the maintenance records should be
transferred to each subsequent owner. Northern Tool + Equipment
reserves the right to deny warranty coverage if the engine has not
been properly maintained; however, Northern Tool + Equipment
may not deny warranty repairs solely because of the lack of repair
maintenance or failure to keep maintenance records.
Normal maintenance replacement or repair of emission control devices
and systems may be performed by any repair establishment or indi-
viduals; however, warranty repairs must be performed by a Northern
Tool + Equipment authorized service center. Any replacement parts
or service that is equivalent in performance and durability may be
used in non-warranty maintenance or repairs, and shall not reduce the
warranty obligations of the engine manufacturer.
