ABOUT YOUR WARRANTY
Warranty service is available only through Snapper Authorized Service Dealers.
This warranty covers only defects in materials or workmanship. It does not
cover damage caused by improper use or abuse, improper maintenance or
repair, normal wear and tear, or stale or unapproved fuel.
Improper Use and Abuse - The proper, intended use of this product is described
in the Operator's Manual. Using the product in a way not described in the
Operator's Manual or using the product after it has been damaged will not be
covered under this warranty. Warranty coverage will also not be provided if
the serial number on the product has been removed or the product has been
altered or modified in any way, or if the product has evidence of abuse such as
impact damage or water/chemical corrosion damage.
Improper Maintenance or Repair - This product must be maintained according
to the procedures and schedules provided in the Operator's Manual, and
serviced or repaired using genuine Briggs & Stratton parts or equivalent.
Damage caused by lack of maintenance or use of non-original parts is not
covered by warranty.
Normal We ar and Tear - Like most mechanical devices, your unit is subject
to wear even when properly maintained. This warranty does not cover
repairs when normal use has exhausted the life of a part or the equipment.
Maintenance and wear items such as filters, belts, cutting blades, and
brake pads (except engine brake pads) are not covered by warranty due to
wear characteristics alone, unless the cause is due to defects in material or
workmanship.
