One Year Limited Warranty
Flowtron,
division of Armatron warrants your Leaf-Eater to be free from defects in materials or workmanship under normal use and service
for one year from date of the original purchase. All parts which are defective will be repaired or replaced free of charge. Any implied warranties,
including the implied warranty of merchantability are also limited in duration for one year from the original purchase date. Some states do not
allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations may not apply to you.
The provisions of this warranty shall not apply to any Leaf-Eater which has been subject to misuse, neglect or accident, nor which is used
for a purpose for which it is not designed, or which shall have been repaired or altered in any way so as to adversely affect its performance and
reliability. Service by unauthorized parties voids your warranty. Warranty covers only the original purchaser. Commercial and/or professional
use is excluded from warranty coverage.

assumed for any consequential damages that may result from the use of a Flowtron product, not for damages due to accident, abuse, lack of
responsible care, the affixing of any unauthorized attachments, loss of parts or subjecting this unit to any but the specified voltage. Some
states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of the incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to
you.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
