with the product, and has not been subject to misuse, abuse,
commercial use, neglect, accident, improper maintenance, alter-
ation, vandalism, theft, fire, water, or damage because of other

fects in materials or workmanship of OTHER component parts.

to:  batteries, belts, blades, blade adapters, grass bags, rider

e.

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.

out of the misuse or inability to use the product.

This limited warranty shall not extend to anyone other than the
original purchaser or to the person for whom it was purchased
