ABOUT THE WARflANTY
The Gravely
is
designed and
built
for longevity. To maintain warranty, it is
the owners responsibility
to
have it operated and maintained
as
outlined in this
manual. A failure due
to
lack
of
maintenance
or
improper use
is
not covered
by
warranty.
It
is
the nature
of
machines to "wear out". A failure due
to
a defect usual-
ly
shows up early in the life
of
a machine. When The Tractor is in the warranty
period, the manufacturer
or
manufacturer's authorized representative will decide
whether a part
is
defective
or
worn-out.
(The warranty statement appears in the back of this manual)
