maintained in accordance with the Operator’s Manual furnished
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.
Normal wear parts and components include, but are not limited
to:  batteries, belts, blades, blade adapters, grass bags, rider

e.

Parts that are not genuine Troy-Bilt parts are not covered by
this warranty.

f.

damage including, without limitation, expenses incurred for

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

the 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 and their property arising
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
as a gift.

limited warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you
may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
