The replacement power tool will be covered by the limited warranty for the balance of the two year period from the date of the original purchase.

WHAT THIS WARRANTY COVERS: This warranty covers all defects in workmanship or materials in your RYOBI® power tool for a period of three years from the date of purchase.

WHAT’S NOT COVERED: This warranty applies only to the original purchaser at retail and may not be transferred.
