provide coverage in the following 

cases:
a.  The engine or component parts thereof. These items may carry a 

separate manufacturer’s warranty. Refer to applicable manufac-

turer’s warranty for terms and conditions.

b.  Log splitter pumps, valves, and cylinders have a separate one- 

year warranty.

c.  Routine maintenance items such as lubricants, filters, blade

due to use or exposure.

d.  Service completed by someone other than an authorized service

e.  Troy-Bilt does not extend any warranty for products sold or 

exported outside of the United States and/or Canada, and their 

respective possessions and territories, except those sold through

f.  Replacement parts that are not genuine Troy-Bilt parts.
g.  Transportation charges and service calls.
h.  Troy-Bilt does not warrant this product for commercial use.

No implied warranty, including any implied warranty of

including a dealer or retailer, with respect to any product, shall 

bind Troy-Bilt. During the period of the warranty, the exclusive

The provisions as set forth in this warranty provide the sole and 

exclusive remedy arising from the sale. Troy-Bilt shall not be liable 

for incidental or consequential loss or damage including, without 

limitation, expenses incurred for substitute or replacement lawn 

care services or for rental expenses to temporarily replace a 

warranted product.

Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental 

or consequential damages, or limitations on how long an implied 

warranty lasts, so the above exclusions or limitations may not apply 

to you.
In no event shall recovery of any kind be greater than the amount of 

the purchase price of the product sold. 

Alteration of safety features of 

the product shall void this warranty.

 You assume the risk and liability 

for loss, damage, or injury to you and your property and/or to others

This limited warranty shall not extend to anyone other than the
