Exmark Mfg. Co. Inc. and its affiliate, Exmark Warranty Company, pursuant to an agreement
between them, jointly warrant on the terms and conditions herein, that we will repair, replace or
adjust any part manufactured by Exmark and found by us (in the exercise of our reasonable
discretion) to be defective in factory material or workmanship.
This warranty is limited to one year from the date of original retail purchase (90 days for rental
use) for any Exmark mower that is used for commercial or any other income producing purpose.
The blade spindle assemblies will be warranted for three years, one year parts and labor with an
additional two years parts only, from date of original retail purchase against defects in materials
or workmanship. The frame and hydrostatic traction drive system, excluding hoses, will be
warranted for two full years from date of original retail purchase against defects in materials or
workmanship. We will extend the Peerless 5-speed transmission manufacturer's warranty from
90 days to one year. Belts and tires are warranted for 90 days against defects in materials or
workmanship.
The engine warranty is covered by its respective engine manufacturer. Please refer to the
engine manufacturers warranty statement that is included in the literature packet. We are not
authorized to handle warranty adjustments on engines. Engine warranties should be referred to
the nearest authorized service outlet of the engine manufacturer.
This warranty extends only to the original retail purchaser of the equipment. This warranty may

Warranty Company. The warranty period commences upon the date of the original retail purchase.
The Exmark turf equipment, including any defective part, must be returned to an authorized
Exmark service dealer within the warranty period. The warranty shall extend to the expense of
repair or replacement (as determined by us) of the defective part, including labor. The warranty

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
