Why don't all similar products carry the warning?
• Products sold in California require Prop 65 labelling while similar products sold
elsewhere do not.
• A company involved in a Prop 65 lawsuit reaching a settlement may be required to use
Prop 65 warnings for its products, but other companies making similar products may
have no such requirement.
• The enforcement of Prop 65 is inconsistent.
• Companies may elect not to provide warnings because they conclude that they are not
required to do so under Prop 65; a lack of warnings for a product does not mean that the
product is free of listed chemicals at similar levels.
Why does Toro include this warning?
Toro has chosen to provide consumers with as much information as possible so that they
can make informed decisions about the products they buy and use. Toro provides warnings
in certain cases based on its knowledge of the presence of one or more listed chemicals
without evaluating the level of exposure, as not all the listed chemicals provide exposure
limit requirements. While the exposure from Toro products may be negligible or well within
the "no significant risk" range, out of an abundance of caution, Toro has elected to provide
the Prop 65 warnings. Moreover, if Toro does not provide these warnings, it could be sued
by the State of California or by private parties seeking to enforce Prop 65 and subject to
substantial penalties.
