WARRANTY
Products manufactured by Seller are warranted against defects
in
materials and workmanship
for twelve (12) months from date of shipment thereof to Customer, and Seller's liability under
valid warranty claims
is
limited, at the option of Seller,
to
repair, replacement, or refund
of
an
equitable portion of
the
purchase price of the Product. Items expendable
in
normal use are
not
covered by this warranty. All warranty replacement or repair of parts shall
be
limited
to
equipment malfunctions which,
in
the sole opinion of Seller, are due or traceable
to
defects
in
original materials or workmanship. All obligations of Seller under this warranty shall cease
in
the event of abuse, accident, alteration, misuse, or neglect of the equipment. In-warranty
repaired or replacement parts are warranted only for the remaining unexpired portion of
the
original warranty period applicable
to
the repaired or replaced parts. After expiration of
the
applicable warranty period, Customer shall
be
charged at the then current prices for parts,
labor,
and
transportation.
Reasonable care must be used
to
avoid hazards. Seller expressly disclaims responsibility for
loss or damage caused by use of its Products other than
in
accordance with proper operating
procedures.
Except as stated herein, Seller makes
no
warranty, express or implied (either
in
fact or by
operation of law), statutory or otherwise; and, except as stated herein, Seller shall have
no
liability under any warranty, express or implied (either
in
fact or by operation of law), statutory
or otherwise. Statements made by any person, including representatives of Seller, which
are
inconsistent or
in
conflict with
the
terms
of
this warranty shall not be binding upon Seller unless
reduced to writing and approved by
an
officer
of
Seller.
Warranty Replacement and Adjustment
All
claims under warranty must be made promptly after occurrence of circumstances giving
rise
thereto, and must
be
received within the applicable warranty period by Seller or its authorized
representative. Such claims should include the Product serial number, the date of Shipment,
and a full description of the circumstances giving rise to the claim. Before any Products
are
returned for repair and/or adjustment, written authorization from Seller or its authorized
representative for the return and instructions as to how and where these Products should
be
returned must
be
obtained. Any Product retumed
to
Seller for examination shall be prepaid
via
the
means of transportation indicated
as
acceptable by Seller. Seller reserves the right
to
reject any warranty claim not promptly reported and any warranty claim
on
any item that
has
been altered or has been returned by non-acceptable means of transportation. When any
Product is returned for examination and inspection, or for any other reason, Customer shall
be
responsible for all damage resulting from improper packing or handling, and for loss
in
transit,
notwithstanding any defect or non-conformity
in
the Product, in all cases, Seller has the sole
responsibility for determining the cause and nature of failure, and Seller's determination with
regard thereto shall
be
final .
If it is found that Seller's Product has been returned without cause and is stili serviceable,
Customer will
be
notified and the Product returned at its expense;
in
addition, a charge for
testing and examination may be made
on
Products
so
returned.
