Instruction

 

Disclaimer

 

 

 
Dennis Kirk provides instructions to help our customers better understand how to install the 
products we sell. The instructions are exact copies of what the manufacturer includes with the 
product being sold. 
 
That means the quality and accuracy of the instructions is solely dependent on what the 
manufacturer produces. We do our best to make the text legible and the pictures viewable. 
However, the end result depends largely on the quality of instructions the manufacturer 
provides. 
 
Therefore, you will find that some instructions are not of the highest quality. Sometimes text is 
hard to read and pictures are not easy to see. At times you will find the overall look of the 
instructions to be less than professional. However, we feel it is better to provide what we have 
rather than provide nothing at all. 
 
To the best of our knowledge the instructions and application information contained in the 
instructions is accurate. However, Dennis Kirk assumes no liability related to any errors that 
may be contained in the copy of the manufacturer’s instructions we provide. Buyers are solely 
responsible to insure that product use is consistent with their application. 
 
If you have any questions please contact us at

 or  

800-969-7501 so we can further assist you regarding additional product information or any other 
business related questions. 
 
Thank you for doing business with Dennis Kirk.
