Warranty
Your LE-450 turbine from Leading Edge Turbines (LET) carries a two-year warranty, as supported by
a retailer’s receipt. The warranty starts from the date of installation or ninety (90) days after
shipment from the LET factory, whichever comes first.
LET will supply ‘non-wearing’ parts at no cost. For minor component failures, replacements may be
sent directly to the customer / dealer for replacement by them. For more serious defects we may
suggest a ‘return-to-base’ arrangement for replacement or repair.
In these cases, the purchaser will be responsible for taking the turbine off the tower/mast and
paying the return carriage costs.
Where a turbine is to be replaced, it must be returned to LET before the replacement unit is
despatched. Should the product prove to be irreparable, LET reserves the right to substitute an
equivalent product, if available.
This warranty does not extend to servicing a faulty turbine on location.
In all cases LET will take reasonable action to ensure customer satisfaction. You should always
receive a warm, courteous service in or out of your warranty period.
Your turbine must be installed and operated in accordance with the guide. Failure to do so will
result in this warranty becoming null and void. Any unauthorised modifications to the turbine
design will void the warranty and may compromise the safety of the machine.
What is not covered by your warranty?
Damage caused by unsatisfactory installation of the turbine, tower and/or control
equipment.
Damage caused by the neglect of periodic maintenance in the manner recommended in
the installation manual.
Damage caused by repair or maintenance performed using methods not specified by LET
or by non-authorised dealers of LET products.
Damaged caused by the use of non-genuine parts, or from the use of liquid agents or
lubricants in or on the turbine, tower or control equipment.
