Owner Responsibilities
You must maintain your Toro Product by following the maintenance procedures described in the Operator’s Manual. Such routine maintenance, whether
performed by a dealer or by you, is at your expense.
Instructions for Obtaining Warranty Service
If you think that your Toro Product contains a defect in materials or workmanship, or if a normal, able-bodied adult can no longer start your product’s engine in
one or two pulls, follow this procedure:
1. Contact any Toro Authorized or Master Service Dealer to arrange service at their dealership. To locate a dealer convenient to you, refer to the Yellow Pages
of your telephone directory (look under “Lawn Mowers”) or access our website at www.Toro.com. U.S. Customers may also call 800-421-9684 to use our
24-hour Toro dealer locator system.
2. Bring the product and your proof of purchase (sales receipt) to the Service Dealer.

General Conditions
All repairs covered by these warranties must be performed by an Authorized or Master Toro Service Dealer using Toro approved replacement parts. Repair by a
Toro Service Dealer is your sole remedy under these warranties.
Neither The Toro Company nor Toro Warranty Company is liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages in connection with the use of the Toro
Products covered by these warranties, including any cost or expense of providing substitute equipment or service during reasonable periods of malfunction or
non-use pending completion of repairs under these warranties.
Some states do not allow exclusions of incidental or consequential damages, or limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above exclusions and
limitations may not apply to you.
Countries Other than the United States or Canada
Customers who have purchased Toro products exported from the United States or Canada should contact their Toro Distributor (Dealer) to obtain guarantee
policies for your country, province, or state. If for any reason you are dissatisfied with your Distributor’s service or have difficulty obtaining guarantee
information, contact the Toro importer. If all other remedies fail, you may contact us at Toro Warranty Company.
