previously sold diggers. Please return your completed form, so we can provide this service
to you. If you did not complete a WARRANTY REGISTRATION FORM & INSPECTION
REPORT, please call Danuser Machine Company, Inc. at (573) 642-2246. Your satisfaction
with our product and your safety as a user of our product are both very important to us.
