TO THE DEALER:

Read manual instructions and safety rules. Make sure all items on the Dealer’s Pre-Delivery and Delivery Check
Lists in the Operator’s Manual are completed before releasing equipment to the owner.

The dealer must complete the Warranty Registration Card attached to the front inside cover of this manual and return
to J. & M. Mfg. Co., Inc. at the address indicated on the card. Warranty claims will be denied if the Warranty

Registration Card has not been completed and returned.

EXPRESS WARRANTY:

J. & M. Mfg. Co. Inc. warrants against defects in construction or materials for a period of ONE year. We reserve the
right to inspect and decide whether material or construction was faulty or whether abuse or accident voids our
guarantee.

Warranty service must be performed by a dealer or service center authorized by J. & M. Mfg. Co. Inc. to sell and/or
service the type of product involved, which will use only new or remanufactured parts or components furnished by J.
& M. Mfg. Co. Inc. Warranty service will be performed without charge to the purchaser for parts or labor based on the
Warranty Labor Times schedule. Under no circumstance will allowable labor times extend beyond the maximum
hours indicated in the Warranty Labor Times schedule for each warranty procedure. The purchaser will be
responsible, however, for any service call and/or transportation of the product to and from the dealer or service
center’s place of business, for any premium charged for overtime labor requested by the purchaser, and for any
service and/or maintenance not directly related to any defect covered under the warranty. Costs associated with
equipment rental, product down time, or product disposal are not warrantable and will not be accepted under any
circumstance.

Each warranty term begins on the date of product delivery to the purchaser. Under no circumstance will warranty be
approved unless (i) the product warranty registration card (attached to the inside of the Operator’s Manual) has been
properly completed and submitted to the equipment manufacturer. This Warranty is effective only if the warranty
registration card is returned within 30 days of purchase.

This warranty does not cover a component which fails, malfunctions or is damaged as a result of (i) improper
modification or repair, (ii) accident, abuse or improper use, (iii) improper or insufficient maintenance, or (iv) normal
wear or tear. This warranty does not cover products that are previously owned and extends solely to the original
purchaser of the product. Should the original purchaser sell or otherwise transfer this product to a third party, this
Warranty does not transfer to the third party purchaser in any way. J. & M. Mfg. Co. Inc. makes no warranty, express
or implied, with respect to tires or other parts or accessories not manufactured by J. & M. Mfg. Co. Inc. Warranties
for these items, if any, are provided separately by their respective manufacturers.

THIS WARRANTY IS EXPRESSLY IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS,
IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR
PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

In no event shall J. & M. Mfg. Co. Inc. be liable for special, direct, incidental or consequential damages of any kind.
The exclusive remedy under this Warranty shall be repair or replacement of the defective component at J. & M. Mfg.
Co. Inc’s. option. This is the entire agreement between J. & M. Mfg. Co. Inc. and the Owner about warranty and no J.
& M. Mfg. Co. Inc. employee or dealer is authorized to make any additional warranty on behalf of J. & M. Mfg. Co.
Inc.

The manufacturer reserves the right to make product design and material changes at any time without notice. They
shall not incur any obligation or liability to incorporate such changes and improvements in products previously sold to
any customer, nor shall they be obligated or liable for the replacement of previously sold products with products or
parts incorporating such changes.
