Instructions for Obtaining Warranty Service
Should you feel your Toro Product contains a defect in materials or
workmanship, contact the retailer who sold you the product or any
Authorized Service Dealer or Master Service Dealer. The Yellow
Pages of your telephone directory is a good reference source. The
dealer will either arrange service at his/her dealership or recom-
mend another Authorized Service Dealer who may be more con-
venient. You may need proof of purchase (copy of registration
card, sales receipt, etc.) for warranty validation.
If for any reason you are dissatisfied with the Service Dealer’s anal-
ysis of the defect in materials or workmanship or if you need a refer-
ral to a Toro Service Dealer, please feel free to contact us at:

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.
Items and Conditions Not Covered
There is no other express warranty except for special emission
system coverage on some products. This express warranty does
not cover:
• Cost of regular maintenance service or parts, such as filters,
fuel, lubricants, tune-up parts, blade sharpening, brake and
clutch adjustments.
• Any product or part which has been altered or misused or
required replacement or repair due to normal wear, acci-
dents, or lack of proper maintenance.
• Repairs necessary due to improper fuel, contaminants in the
fuel system, or failure to properly prepare the fuel system
prior to any period of non-use over three months.
• Pickup and delivery charges for distances beyond a fifteen
mile radius from an Authorized Toro Service Dealer.
All repairs covered by this warranty must be performed by an Au-
thorized Toro Service Dealer using Toro approved replacement
parts.
General Conditions
Repair by an Authorized Toro Service Dealer is your sole remedy
under this warranty.
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 this warranty, includ-
ing any cost or expense of providing substitute equipment or ser-
vice during reasonable periods of malfunction or non-use pending
completion of repairs under this warranty. 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.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also
have other rights which vary from state to state.
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.
