LIMITED WARRANTY-COMMERCIAL EQUIPMENT

Any part of the Scag commercial mower manufactured by Scag Power Equipment and found, in the reasonable judgment

of Scag, to be defective in materials or workmanship, will be repaired or replaced by an Authorized Scag Service Dealer

without charge for parts and labor.  This warranty is limited to the original purchaser and is not transferable.  Proof of

purchase will be required by the dealer to substantiate any warranty claims.  All warranty work must be performed by an

Authorized Scag Service Dealer.

This warranty is limited to the following specified periods from the date of the original retail purchase for defects in

materials or workmanship:

* Wear items including drive belts, blades, hoses and tires are warranted for 90 days.

* Batteries are warranted for 90 days.

* Frames, decks, and structural components including oil reservoirs and oil coolers

are warranted for 1 year.

* Engines and electric starters are warranted by the manufacturer’s warranty period.

* Hydro-Gear® drive components are warranted by Hydro-Gear, Sullivan, IL.

* Drive system components are warranted for 1 year by the component manufacturer, in

conjunction with Scag Power Equipment.  (Excluding fittings, hoses, cooling systems,

oil reservoirs, and drive belts).

* Electric clutches have a Limited Warranty for 2 years (parts & labor 1st year; parts only

2nd year).

* Cutter Spindle Assemblies 46631 have a Limited Warranty for 3 years (parts and

Any Scag product used for rental purposes is warranted by a 90-day warranty period.

The Scag mower, including any defective part must be returned to an Authorized Scag Service Dealer within the warranty

period.  The expense of delivering the mower to the dealer for warranty work and the expense of returning it to the owner

after repair will be paid for by the owner.  Scag’s responsibility is limited to making the required repairs and no claim of

breach of warranty shall be cause for cancellation or rescission of the contract of sale of any Scag mower.

This warranty does not cover any mower that has been subject to misuse, neglect, negligence, or accident, or that has

been operated in any way contrary to the operating instructions as specified in the Operator’s Manual.  The warranty does

not apply to any damage to the mower that is the result of improper maintenance, or to any mower or parts that have not

been assembled or installed as specified in the Operator’s Manual and Assembly Manual.  The warranty does not cover

any mower that has been altered or modified, changing performance or durability.  In addition, the warranty does not

extend to repairs made necessary by normal wear, or by the use of parts or accessories which, in the reasonable judgment

of Scag, are either incompatible with the Scag mower or adversely affect its operation, performance or durability.

Scag Power Equipment reserves the right to change or improve the design of any mower without assuming any

obligation to modify any mower previously manufactured.

All other implied warranties are limited in duration to the one (1) year warranty period or ninety (90) days for mowers

used for rental purpose.  Accordingly, any such implied warranties including merchantability, fitness for a particular

purpose, or otherwise, are disclaimed in their entirety after the expiration of the appropriate one year or ninety day

warranty period.  Scag’s obligation under this warranty is strictly and exclusively limited to the repair or replacement of

defective parts and Scag does not assume or authorize anyone to assume for them any other obligation.  Some states do

not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.

Scag assumes no responsibility for incidental, consequential or other damages including, but not limited to, expense for

gasoline, expense of delivering the mower to an Authorized Scag Service Dealer and expense of returning it to the owner,

mechanic’s travel time, telephone or telegram charges, rental of a like product during the time warranty repairs are being

performed, travel, loss or damage to personal property, loss of revenue, loss of use of the mower, loss of time or incon-

venience.  Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above

limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
