Warranties

Since Scag Power Equipment was established in 1983, we’ve built an industry-wide reputation for producing reliable, heavy-duty commercial equipment. We are proud of the quality of our mowers and their well-earned reputation for durability. The Scag® warranty policy shows our commitment to you and to the products we manufacture. See your local Scag dealer for details on the warranty policy or reference the Limited Warranty Statement included in your operator’s manual.

Warranty time periods are from the date of purchase, are only applicable to the original owner and are non-transferable. Warranty does not cover wear items, misuse, abuse, lack of maintenance, etc. See the Limited Warranty Statement in your owner’s manual for more details.

“Non-Commercial” is defined as single-property usage, where the single property is the residence of the owner of the product. If the product is being used on more than the owner’s single property, it is deemed commercial use and this warranty does not apply. Scag Power Equipment reserves the right to deny and/or void this warranty if it believes it is in commercial use.
