Limited Warranty
WMH Tool Group (including JET, Performax, Powermatic and Wilton brands) makes every effort to assure
that its products meet high quality and durability standards and warrants to the original retail
consumer/purchaser of our products that each product be free from defects in materials and workmanship
as follows: 1 YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY ON ALL PRODUCTS UNLESS SPECIFIED OTHERWISE.
This warranty does not apply to defects due directly or indirectly to misuse, abuse, negligence or
accidents, normal wear-and-tear, repair or alterations outside our facilities, or to a lack of maintenance.
WMH TOOL GROUP LIMITS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES TO THE PERIOD SPECIFIED ABOVE, FROM
THE DATE THE PRODUCT WAS PURCHASED AT RETAIL. EXCEPT AS STATED HEREIN, ANY
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR MERCHANTIBILITY AND FITNESS ARE EXCLUDED. SOME STATES DO
NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG THE IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE
LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. WMH TOOL GROUP SHALL IN NO EVENT BE LIABLE FOR
DEATH, INJURIES TO PERSONS OR PROPERTY, OR FOR INCIDENTAL, CONTINGENT, SPECIAL,
OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING FROM THE USE OF OUR PRODUCTS. SOME STATES
DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
To take advantage of this warranty, the product or part must be returned for examination, postage prepaid,
to an Authorized Repair Station designated by our office. Proof of purchase date and an explanation of
the complaint must accompany the merchandise. If our inspection discloses a defect, WMH Tool Group
will either repair or replace the product, or refund the purchase price if we cannot readily and quickly
provide a repair or replacement, if you are willing to accept a refund. WMH Tool Group will return repaired
product or replacement at our expense, but if it is determined there is no defect, or that the defect
resulted from causes not within the scope of our warranty, then the user must bear the cost of storing and
returning the product. This warranty gives you specific legal rights; you may also have other rights, which
vary from state to state.
WMH Tool Group sells through distributors only. WMH Tool Group reserves the right to effect at any time,
without prior notice, those alterations to parts, fittings, and accessory equipment which they may deem
necessary for any reason whatsoever.
