Owner Responsibilities
As the Product owner, you are responsible for required maintenance and
adjustments stated in your Operator’s Manual. Failure to perform required
maintenance and adjustments can be grounds for disallowing a warranty
claim.
Items and Conditions Not Covered
Not all product failures or malfunctions that occur during the warranty
period are defects in materials or workmanship. This warranty does not
cover the following:
•
Product failures which result from the use of non-Toro replacement
parts, or from installation and use of add-on, or modified non-Toro
branded accessories and products. A separate warranty may be
provided by the manufacturer of these items.
•
Product failures which result from failure to perform recommended
maintenance and/or adjustments. Failure to properly maintain your
Toro product per the Recommended Maintenance listed in the
Operator’s Manual
can result in claims for warranty being denied.
•
Product failures which result from operating the Product in an abusive,
negligent or reckless manner.
•
Parts subject to consumption through use unless found to be defective.
Examples of parts which are consumed, or used up, during normal
Product operation include, but are not limited to, brakes pads and
linings, clutch linings, blades, reels, bed knives, tines, spark plugs,
castor wheels, tires, filters, belts, and certain sprayer components
such as diaphragms, nozzles, and check valves, etc.

Parts
Parts scheduled for replacement as required maintenance are warranted
for the period of time up to the scheduled replacement time for that part.
Parts replaced under this warranty are covered for the duration of the
original product warranty and become the property of Toro. Toro will make
the final decision whether to repair any existing part or assembly or replace
it. Toro may use remanufactured parts for warranty repairs.
Note Regarding Deep Cycle Battery Warranty:
Deep cycle batteries have a specified total number of kilowatt-hours they
can deliver during their lifetime. Operating, recharging, and maintenance
techniques can extend or reduce total battery life. As the batteries in
this product are consumed, the amount of useful work between charging
intervals will slowly decrease until the battery is completely worn out.
Replacement of worn out batteries, due to normal consumption, is the
responsibility of the product owner. Battery replacement may be required
during the normal product warranty period at owner’s expense.
Maintenance is at Owner’s Expense
Engine tune-up, lubrication cleaning and polishing, replacement of Items
and Conditions Not Covered filters, coolant, and completing Recommended
Maintenance are some of the normal services Toro products require that
are at the owner’s expense.
General Conditions
Repair by an Authorized Toro Distributor or Dealer is your sole remedy
under this warranty.
Neither The Toro Company nor Toro Warranty Company is liable for
indirect, incidental or consequential damages in connection with the
use of the Toro Products covered by this warranty, including any
cost or expense of providing substitute equipment or service during
reasonable periods of malfunction or non-use pending completion
of repairs under this warranty. Except for the Emissions warranty
referenced below, if applicable, there is no other express warranty.
All implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for use are limited to the
duration of this express warranty. Some states do not allow exclusions of
incidental or consequential damages, or limitations on how long an implied
warranty lasts, so the above exclusions and limitations 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.
Countries Other than the United States or Canada
Customers should contact their Toro Distributor (Dealer) to obtain guarantee policies for your country, province, or state. If for any reason you are
dissatisfied with your Distributor's service or have difficulty obtaining guarantee information, contact the Toro importer. If all other remedies fail, you
may contact us at Toro Warranty Company.
