upon examination by the factory at McDonough, Georgia, to be defective in material or workmanship or both. 
 
For ninety (90) days from purchase date for the original purchaser's commercial, rental, or other non-residential use,

All transportation costs incurred by the purchaser in submitting material to an authorized SNAPPER dealer for 
replacement under this warranty must be paid by the purchaser. 
 
This warranty does not apply to engines and their components, and batteries, as these items are warranted separately.  
This warranty does not apply to parts that have been damaged by accident, alteration, abuse, improper lubrication, 
normal wear, or other cause beyond the control of SNAPPER. This warranty does not cover any machine or component 
part that has been altered or modified changing safety, performance, or durability.

from the original purchase date. SNAPPER will not be responsible for any installation cost incurred. The battery warranty 
only covers original equipment batteries and does not cover damage to the battery or machine caused by neglect or 
abuse, destruction by fire, explosion, freezing, overcharging, improper maintenance, or use of improper electrolyte. 
 
There is no other express warranty. 
 

DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY 

Implied warranties, including those of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, are limited to three 
(3) years from purchase date for the original purchaser's residential or other non-commercial use, and ninety 
(90) days from purchase for the original purchaser's commercial, rental or other non-residential use, and to the 
extent permitted by law, any and all implied warranties are excluded. This is the exclusive remedy. Liabilities for 
consequential damages, under any and all warranties are excluded. 
 
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, or 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. 
 
WARNING: THE USE OF REPLACEMENT PARTS OTHER THAN GENUINE SNAPPER PARTS MAY IMPAIR THE 
SAFETY OF SNAPPER PRODUCTS AND WILL VOID ANY LIABILITY AND WARRANTY BY SNAPPER 
ASSOCIATED WITH THE USE OF SUCH PARTS.
