Warranty 

 

The Chapman Warranty 

Chapman Machinery Ltd (herein ‘Chapman’ or ‘Chapman Machinery’) warrants that the machine referred to in the Warranty Registr

ation Form will be free 

from manufacturing defects for a period of 24 months from the date of sale. This warranty does not affect your statutory rights, but merely adds to them. 
Should you have a problem within 24 months from the date of sale please contact your original dea

ler, or Chapman Machinery’s Service Department.

 

 

Any part found to be defective during this period will be replaced or repaired, at our discretion, by the dealer or a authorised Service Engineer. 

 

Warranty Conditions 

1.

 

The Warranty Registration Form must be completed and returned to Chapman Machinery Ltd within 30 days of the date of sale 

 

2.

 

This warranty does not cover defects arising from fair wear and tear, wilful damage, negligence, misuse, abnormal working conditions, use in competition, 

failure to follow Chapman 

Machinery’s instructions (oral or written, including all instructions and recommendation made in the Operator’s Manual) or 

alteration or repair of the 
machinery without prior approval. 

 

3.

 

The machinery must have been serviced in 

accordance with the Operator’s Manual and the Service Log must have been 

kept up to date and made available to the 
dealer should service, repair or warranty work be undertaken. 

 

4. This warranty does not cover claims in respect of wearing parts such as blades, flails, paintwork, tyres, belts, hydraulic hoses, bearings, bushes, linkage pins, 
top links, ball ends unless there is a manufacturing or material defect or the cost of normal servicing items such as oils and lubricants. 

 

5.

 

This warranty does not cover any expenses or losses incurred whilst the machinery is out of use for warranty repairs or parts replacement. 

 

6.

 

This warranty does not extend to parts, materials or equipment not manufactured by Chapman Machinery, for which the Buyer shall only be entitled to the 

benefit of any such warranty or guarantee given by the manufacturer  to  Chapman Machinery. Only genuine replacement parts will be allowable for warranty 
claims. 

 

7.

 

All parts replaced by Chapman Machinery under warranty become the property of Chapman Machinery and must be returned to Chapman Machinery if 

so requested. Such parts may only be disposed of after a warranty claim has been accepted and processed by Chapman Machinery. 

8.

 

Chapman Machinery is not liable under this warranty for any repairs 

carried out without Chapman Machinery’s written consent or without Chapman 

Machinery being afforded a reasonable opportunity to inspect the machinery the subject of the warranty claim. Chapman 

Machinery’s 

written consent must, 

therefore, be obtained before any repairs are carried out or parts replaced. Use of non- Chapman Machinery parts automatically invalidates the Chapman 
Warranty. Failed components must not be dismantled except as specifically authorised by Chapman Machinery and dismantling of any components without 
authorisation from Chapman Machinery will invalidate this warranty.

All warranty claims must be submitted to Chapman Machinery on Chapman Machinery Warranty Claim Forms within 30 days of completion of warranty

Manual. 

 

Transfer of Warranty 

The Chapman warranty be transferred to a subsequent owner of the machinery (for use within the UK only) for the balance of the warranty period subject to 
all of the stated warranty conditions and provided that the Change of Owner form is completed and sent to Chapman Machinery within 14 days of change of 
owner- ship. 

 

Chapman Machinery Ltd retain the right to refuse transfer of warranty. 

 

Chapman Machinery reserves the right to make alterations and improvements to any machinery 
without notification and without obligation to do so.
