How Do You Get Warranty Service?

Should you feel your TORO Product contains a defect in ma-

product or any TORO ProLine Service Dealer. The Yellow
Pages of your telephone directory is a good reference
source; look under TORO Commercial Service Dealers. The
Service Dealer will either arrange service at his/her dealer-
ship or recommend another authorized Service Dealer who
may be more convenient. You may need proof of purchase
(copy of registration card, sales receipt, etc.) for warranty
validation.

If for any reason you are dissatisfied with a Service Dealer’s
analysis of the defect in materials or workmanship or if you
need a referral to a TORO ProLine Service Dealer, please feel
free to contact us at the following address:

expense of providing substitute equipment or service dur-
ing reasonable periods of malfunction or non-use pend-
ing completion of repairs under this warranty. Some
states do not allow exclusions of incidental or conse-
quential damages, so the above 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.

       

Customers who have purchased TORO products exported from the United States or Canada should contact their TORO DisĆ

tributor (Dealer) to obtain guarantee policies for your country, province, or state. If for any reason you are dissatisfied with
