All repairs covered by these warranties must be performed by an Autho-

liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages in connec-
tion with the use of the Toro Products covered by these warranties, 
including any cost or expense of providing substitute equipment or 
service during reasonable periods of malfunction or non-use pending

limitations may not apply to you.
