Free labor will be provided at any authorized Ditch Witch dealership for

Exclusions from Product Warranty
• All incidental or consequential damages.
• All defects, damages, or injuries caused by misuse (including, but not
limited to, rollover), abuse, improper installation, alteration, neglect, or
uses other than those for which products were intended.
• All defects, damages, or injuries caused by improper training, operation, or
servicing of products in a manner inconsistent with manufacturer’s
recommendations.
• All engines and engine accessories (these are covered by original
manufacturer’s warranty).
• Tires, belts, and other parts which may be subject to another
manufacturer’s warranty (such warranty will be available to purchaser).
• ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES NOT EXPRESSLY STATED HEREIN, INCLUDING
ANY WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND
MERCHANTABILITY.
IF THE PRODUCTS ARE PURCHASED FOR COMMERCIAL PURPOSES, AS DEFINED
BY THE UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE, THEN THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES
WHICH EXTEND BEYOND THE FACE HEREOF AND THERE ARE NO IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND WHICH EXTEND TO A COMMERCIAL BUYER. ALL
OTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY APPLY INCLUDING THE
DUTIES IMPOSED.
Ditch Witch products have been tested to deliver acceptable performance in
most conditions. This does not imply they will deliver acceptable performance
in all conditions. Therefore, to assure suitability, products should be operated
under anticipated working conditions prior to purchase.
Defects will be determined by an inspection within thirty (30) days of the date
of failure of the product or part by Ditch Witch Product Support (DWPS) or its
authorized dealer. DWPS will provide the location of its inspection facilities or
its nearest authorized dealer upon inquiry. DWPS reserves the right to supply
remanufactured replacements parts under this warranty as it deems
appropriate.
Extended warranties are available upon request from your local Ditch Witch
dealer or the Ditch Witch factory.
Some states do not allow exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential
damages, so above limitation of exclusion may not apply. Further, some states
do not allow exclusion of or limitation of how long an implied warranty lasts,
so the above limitation may not apply. This limited warranty gives product
owner specific legal rights and the product owner may also have other rights
which vary from state to state.
For information regarding this limited warranty, contact the DWPS
department, P.O. Box 66, Perry, OK 73077-0066, or contact your local dealer.
