The Manufacturer warrants to the original consumer purchaser that this product as manufactured is free from defects in materi-

als and work man ship. For a period of two (2) years from date of purchase by the original consumer purchaser, we will repair or 

replace, at our option, without charge for parts or labor incurred in replacing parts, any part which we find to be defective due 

to materials or workmanship. This Warranty is subject to the following limitations and exclusions.
1.  This warranty does not apply to the engine, battery (except as noted below) or components parts thereof.  Please refer to 

the applicable manufacturer's warranty on these items.

2.  Transportation charges for the movement of any power equipment unit or attachment are the responsibility of the pur chas-

er.  Transportation charges for any parts submitted for replacement under this warranty must be paid by the purchaser 

unless such return is requested by the manufacturer.

3.  Battery Warranty:  On products equipped with a Battery, we will replace, without charge to you, any battery which we find 

to be defective in manufacture, during the first ninety (90) days of ownership. After ninety (90) days, we will exchange the 

Battery, charging you 1/12 of the price of a new Battery for each full month from the date of the original sale. Battery must 

be maintained in accordance with the instructions furnished.

4.  The Warranty does not apply to any products used for rental or commercial purposes.
5.  This Warranty applies only to products which have been properly assembled, adjusted, operated, and main tained in ac-

THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT APPLY TO INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES AND ANY IMPLIED WAR RAN-

 TIES ARE LIMITED TO THE SAME TIME PERIODS STATED HEREIN FOR OUR EXPRESSED WARRANTIES. Some areas 

do not allow the limitation of consequential damages or limitations of how long an implied Warranty may last, so the above 

limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. This Warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may have other rights 

which vary from locale to locale.
This is a limited Warranty within the meaning of that term as defined in the Magnuson-Moss Act of 1975.
