LasTec Product Warranty

LasTec, A Division of Wood-Mizer Products, Inc. warrants its new products to be free of
defects in material or workmanship.  This warranty is applicable only for the normal ser-
vice life expectancy of the machine or components, not to exceed twelve consecutive
months from the date of delivery of the new LasTec product to the original purchaser.

LasTec, A Division of Wood-Mizer Products, Inc. warrants any new products supplied to a
rental yard, or any other situation involving the rental, lease, or other temporary use of the
product by a third party, to be free of defects in material or workmanship, not to exceed
90 days from the date of delivery of the new LasTec product to the original purchaser.

Under no circumstances will it cover any merchandise or components thereof, which, in
the opinion of the company has been subjected to negligent handling, misuse, alteration,
accident, or repairs made with any parts other than those obtainable through LasTec.

Warranty on all normal wear items such as bearings, belts, and bushings is 90 days from
date of delivery.  Any claim received after 90 days will not be accepted.  All warranty
items must be filed with your distributor.  The distributor will then file the warranty claim
with LasTec.

Our obligation under this warranty shall be limited to repairing or replacing, free of charge
to the original purchaser, any part that in our judgement shall show evidence of such
defect, provided further that such part shall be returned within thirty (30) days from date of
failure to LasTec, routed through the dealer and distributor from whom the purchase was
made, with transportation charges prepaid.

This warranty shall not be interpreted to render us liable for injury or damages of any kind
or nature, direct, consequential, or contingent to person or property.  This warranty does
not extend to loss of any expense or loss incurred for labor, supplies, substitute machin-
ery, rental or for any other reason.

There are no warranties, either expressed or implied, of merchantability or fitness for par-
ticular purpose intended or fitness for any other reason.

This warranty is subject to any existing conditions of supply which may directly affect our
ability to obtain materials or manufacture replacement parts.

LasTec reserves the right to make improvements in design or changes in specifications at
any time, without incurring any obligations to owners of units previously sold.

No one is authorized to alter, modify or enlarge this warranty nor the exclusion, limitations
and reservation.

All LasTec warranty work will be done at a distributors facility.  FOB responsibility is the
customers.
