The following applies to both the Toro Total Coverage Guarantee & the Toro GTS Starting Guarantee:

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 the following:

Cost of regular maintenance service or parts, such as ﬁ lters, fuel, lubricants, oil changes, spark plugs, air ﬁ lters, blade sharpening or worn mower blades, cable/linkage adjust-

ments, or brake and clutch adjustments

Any product or part which has been altered or misused and requires replacement or repair due to accidents or lack of proper maintenance

Repairs necessary due to improper battery care, failure to use fresh fuel (less than one month old), or failure to properly prepare the unit prior to any period of non-use over one

month

Pickup and delivery charges

Operational misuse, neglect, or accidents

Repairs or attempted repairs by anyone other than an Authorized Toro Service Dealer

Repairs or adjustments to correct starting difﬁ culties due to the following:

Failure to follow proper maintenance procedures

Rotary mower blade striking an object

Contaminants in the fuel system

Improper fuel (consult your Operator’s Manual if in doubt)

Failure to drain the fuel system prior to any period of non-use over one month

Special operational conditions where starting may require more than two pulls:

First time starts after extended period of non-use over one month or seasonal storage

Cool temperature starts such as those found in early spring and late autumn

Improper starting procedures

If you are having difﬁ culty starting your unit, please check the Operator’s Manual to ensure that you are using the correct starting procedures. This can save an unnecessary visit to a

Service Dealer.

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 Authorized Toro 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 web site at www.Toro.com. You may also call the numbers listed in item #3 to use the 24-hour Toro Dealer locator system.

2. Bring the product and your proof of purchase (sales receipt) to the Service Dealer. The dealer will diagnose the problem and determine if it is covered under warranty.

3. If for any reason you are dissatisﬁ ed with the Service Dealer’s analysis or with the assistance provided, contact us at: Customer Care Department, Consumer Division, Toro War-

ranty Company, 8111 Lyndale Avenue South, Bloomington, MN 55420-1196; or call us toll free at 866-214-9807 (U.S. customers) or 866-214-9808 (Canadian customers).

General Conditions

All repairs covered by these warranties must be performed by an Authorized Toro Service Dealer using Toro approved replacement parts.

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, so the above exclusions 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 outside the United States or Canada should contact their Toro Distributor (Dealer) to obtain guarantee policies for your country, prov-

ince, or state. If for any reason you are dissatisﬁ ed with your Distributor’s service or have difﬁ culty obtaining guarantee information, contact the Toro importer. If all other remedies fail,

you may contact us at Toro Warranty Company.

*Residential use means use of the product on the same lot as your home. Use at more than one location, or institutional or rental use, is considered commercial use and the commercial use

warranty would apply.

**Power Train coverage includes engine and transmission only. The transmission is deﬁ ned as the gear case, internal components, and drive axles.
