Warranty Period for Recreational Use
The warranty period begins on the date the product is first sold to a recreational use retail purchaser or the date on which the
product is first put into service, whichever occurs first. The repair or replacement of parts or the performance of service under
this warranty does not extend the life of this limited warranty beyond its original expiration date. The warranty period is specific
to the model covered. Refer to your model for the base coverage period.

The warranty period begins on the date the product is first sold to a commercial use retail purchaser or the date on which the

use is defined as any work related or employment related use of the product, or any use of the product that generates income
for any part of the warranty period, even if the product is only occasionally used for such purposes. The repair or replacement
of parts or the performance of service under this warranty does not extend the life of this warranty beyond its original expiration
date.
