The warranty shall not extend to the expense of delivering the mower to the dealer for warranty work nor the expense of returning it back to the owner after repair or replacement. Our responsibility in respect to claims is limited to making the required repairs or replacements, and no claim of breach of warranty shall be cause for cancellation or rescission of the contract of sale of any Exmark mower. Proof of purchase may be required by the dealer to substantiate any warranty claim. All warranty work must be performed by an authorized Exmark service dealer.

This warranty extends only to turf equipment operated under normal conditions and properly serviced and maintained.

of the turf equipment; or (9) damage or defects due to or arising out of repair of turf equipment by person or persons other than an authorized Exmark service dealer or the installation of parts other than genuine Exmark or Exmark recommended parts.

As a condition to this warranty, the customer shall have read the operator's manual and shall have completed and returned to Exmark Warranty Company, within the prescribed time, the Exmark warranty registration.

The sole liability of Exmark and Exmark Warranty Company, with respect to this warranty, shall be repair and replacement as set forth herein.
