manufacturing and materials.
This warranty is valid for a year starting from the date of purchase, if the “Warranty coupon” is sent filled out in its
entirety within 10 days from the setting at work of the machine. The warranty is limited to free of charge
replacement or repair of the part which, within the above-mentioned time, shall be returned to us free of charge

included in the warranty. Before returning goods to VALIANI, contact our offices for authorization.
VALIANI will supply the spare parts whenever technical assistance is requested. Transfers, board and lodging for
the personnel used and fees per hour will have to be paid separately.
