All costs associated with claiming under this warranty must be borne by you, including

transport costs incurred in the repair or replacement of any defective part. This warranty

excludes fair wear and tear and any damage caused by misuse or abuse. Parts such as

spark plugs and air filters, which can be subjected to use beyond their normal intended

working capacity are also excluded. 

This warranty is void if alterations have been made to the engine without MTD Products

Australia Pty Ltd prior written authority.

Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer 

Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for

any other reasonable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or

replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a

major failure.

Improper Maintenance:

The life of the engine depends upon the conditions under which it operates and the care it 

receives. Some engines are very often used in dusty or dirty conditions which can cause

premature wear. Such wear when caused by dirt, dust, spark plug cleaning grit or other

abrasive material that has entered the engine because of improper maintenance is not

covered by warranty.

IN ORDER TO MAKE A CLAIM UNDER THIS WARRANTY YOU WILL NEED TO TAKE

YOUR PRODUCT AND YOUR PROOF OF PURCHASE TO AN AUTHORISED MTD

DEALER. YOUR NEAREST MTD DEALER CAN BE FOUND
