General Conditions

Repair by an Authorized Toro Compact Utility Equipment (CUE) Service 
Dealer is your sole remedy under this warranty. 

Neither The Toro® 

Company nor Toro Warranty Company is liable for indirect, inciden-
tal 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. All implied warranties of merchantability and fi tness 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 exclu-
sions and limitations may not apply to you

specifi c legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from 
state to state.

Except for the engine warranty coverage and the Emissions warranty refer-
enced below, if applicable, there is no other express warranty. 
The Emissions Control System on your Product may be covered by a sepa-
rate warranty meeting requirements established by the U.S. Environmental 
Protection Agency (EPA) or the California Air Resources Board (CARB). 
The hour limitations set forth above do not apply to the Emissions Control 
System Warranty. Refer to the California Emission Control Warranty State-
ment printed in you operator’s manual or contained in the engine manufac-
turer’s documentation for details.
