Parts
Parts scheduled for replacement as required maintenance are war­ranted for the period of time up to the scheduled replacement time for that part. Parts replaced under this warranty are covered for the duration of the original product warranty and become the property of Toro. Toro will make the fi nal decision whether to repair any existing part or assembly or replace it. Toro may use remanufactured parts for warranty repairs.
Note Regarding Deep Cycle Battery Warranty:
Deep cycle batteries have a specifi ed total number of kilowatt-hours they can deliver during their lifetime. Operating, recharging, and ainte­nance techniques can extend or reduce total battery life. As the batter­ies in this product are consumed, the amount of useful work between charging intervals will slowly decrease until the battery is completely worn out. Replacement of worn out batteries, due to normal consump­tion, is the responsibility of the product owner. Battery replacement may be required during the normal product warranty period at owner’s expense.
Maintenance is at Owner’s Expense
Engine tune-up, lubrication cleaning and polishing, replacement of lters, coolant, and completing recommended maintenance are some of the normal services Toro products require that are at the owner’s expense.
General Conditions
Repair by an Authorized Toro Distributor or Dealer is your sole remedy under this warranty.
Neither The Toro Company nor Toro Warranty Company is liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages in connetion with the use of the Toro Products covered by this warranty, including any cost or expense of providing substitute equipment or service during reasonable periods of malfunction or non-use pending completion of repairs under this warranty. Except for the Emissions warranty referenced below, if applicable, there is no other express warranty. All implied warranties of merchantability and fi tness for use are limited to the duration of this express war- ranty.
