SPARE PARTS BOOK
Walk-Behind Sweepers
Spare parts are sold through authorized Dealers. If you have forgotten your dealer's name,
or you have moved the machine to a new location, please Call us at: 1 [phone], or
Fax us at: 1 [phone] and we will re-establish a dealer contact for you.
TO ORDER PARTS:
Please provide the machine's Serial No. with your order. Normally, ordinary parts orders
are shipped out the same day the order is received.
EMERGENCY ORDERS:
Within the Continental United States, We can supply any part that weighs under 70lbs
within 3 business days, not counting weekends or National Holidays.
However, if parts are ordered on an "Emergency" basis, this means that we will ship them
by fastest means, generally by air courier service, at the customers expense.
FREIGHT:
Within the United States, the normal shipment method is by customer choice, while the
emergency shipment method is by R.P.S. choice - normally by fastest means. This
means that emergency orders will generally cost the customer more than normal orders.
In both cases, the customer is responsible for all freight costs.
