LIMITED WARRANTY

The Manufacturer warrants to the original consumer purchaser that this product as manufactured is free from defects 

in materials and work man ship. For a period of two (2) years from date of purchase by the original consumer pur-

chaser, we will repair or replace, at our option, without charge for parts or labor incurred in replacing parts, any part 

which we find to be defective due to materials or workmanship. This Warranty is subject to the following limitations 

and exclusions.
1.  This warranty does not apply to the engine or components parts thereof.  Please refer to the applicable manu-

facturer's warranty on these items.

2.  Transportation charges for the movement of any power equipment unit or attachment are the responsibility of the 

pur chaser.  Transportation charges for any parts submitted for replacement under this warranty must be paid by 

the purchaser unless such return is requested by the manufacturer.

3.  The Warranty period for any products used for rental or commercial purposes is limited to 90 days from the date 

of original purchase.

4.  This Warranty applies only to products which have been properly assembled, adjusted, operated, and maintained 

in ac cor dance with the instructions furnished. This Warranty does not apply to any product which has been sub-

jected to alteration, misuse, abuse, improper assembly or installation, delivery damage, or to normal wear of the 

product.

5.  Exclusions: Excluded from this Warranty are belts, shear pins, normal wear, normal adjustments, stan dard hard-

 ware and normal maintenance.

6.  In the event you have a claim under this Warranty, you must return the product to an authorized service dealer.
Should you have any unanswered questions concerning this Warranty, please contact:

giving the complete mfg. ID#, serial number and date of purchase of your product and the name and address of the 

authorized dealer from whom it was purchased.
THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT APPLY TO INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES AND ANY IMPLIED 

WAR RAN TIES ARE LIMITED TO THE SAME TIME PERIODS STATED HEREIN FOR OUR EXPRESSED WAR-

RANTIES. Some areas do not allow the limitation of consequential damages or limitations of how long an implied 

Warranty may last, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. This Warranty gives you specific 

legal rights, and you may have other rights which vary from locale to locale.
This is a limited Warranty within the meaning of that term as defined in the Magnuson-Moss Act of 1975.
