WARRANTY

follows:
We warrant products sold by us to be in accordance with our published specifications or those
specifications agreed to by us in writing at time of sale. Our obligation and liability under this
warranty is expressly limited to repairing, or replacing, at our option, within 12 months after date of
retail delivery, any product not meeting the specifications. We make no other warranty, express
or implied and make no warranty of merchantability or of fitness for any particular purpose.
Our obligation under the warranty shall not include any transportation charges or costs or installa-
tion or any liability for direct, indirect or consequential damage or delay. If requested by us, products
or parts for which a warranty claim is made are to be returned transportation prepaid to our factory.
Any improper use, operation beyond rated capacity, substitution of parts not approved by us, or any
alteration or repair by others in such manner as in our judgment affects the product materially and
adversely shall void this warranty.
No employee or representative is authorized to change this
warranty in any way or grant any other warranty.
Wil-Rich reserves the right to make improvement changes on any of our products without notice.
When warranty limited or not applicable : Warranty on hoses, cylinders, hubs, spindles, engines,
valves, pumps or other trade accessories are limited to the warranties made by the respective
manufactures of these components. Rubber tires and tubes are warranted directly by the respec-
tive tire manufacturer only, and not by Wil-Rich.

as in the our judgment to affect its reliability, or which has been subject to misuse, negligence or
accident.

to initiate the warranty coverage.

date.
