ABOUT YOUR WARRANTY
We welcome warranty repair and apologize to you for
being inconvenienced. Any Authorized Service Dealer
may perform warranty repairs. Most warranty repairs
are handled routinely, but sometimes requests for
warranty service may not be appropriate. For example,
warranty service would not apply if equipment
damage occurred because of misuse, lack of routine
maintenance, shipping, handling, warehousing or
improper installation. Similarly, the warranty is void
if the manufacturing date or the serial number on the
accessory has been removed or the equipment has
been altered or modified. During the warranty period,
the Authorized Service Dealer, at its option, will repair
or replace any part that, upon examination, is found
to be defective under normal use and service. This
warranty will not cover the following repairs and
equipment:
Normal Wear: Outdoor Power Equipment, like
all mechanical devices, needs periodic parts and
service to perform well. This warranty does not
cover normal maintenance such as adjustments
and cleaning.
•
Installation and Maintenance: This warranty does
not apply to equipment or parts that have been
subjected to improper or unauthorized installation
or alteration and modification, misuse, negligence,
accident, overloading, improper maintenance,
repair or storage so as, in our judgment, to
adversely affect its performance and reliability.
Other Exclusions: This warranty excludes wear
items such as connectors, seals, batteries, or
damage or malfunctions resulting from accidents,
abuse, modifications, alterations, or improper
servicing or freezing or chemical deterioration.
This warranty excludes used, reconditioned, and
demonstration equipment and failures due to acts
of God and other force majeure events beyond the
manufacturers control.
