One-Year Limited Warranty

This Orion Argonaut 6" Maksutov-Newtonian is warranted against defects in materials or work-
manship for a period of one year from the date of purchase. This warranty is for the benefit of
the original retail purchaser only. During this warranty period Orion Telescopes & Binoculars will
repair or replace, at Orion’s option, any warranted instrument that proves to be defective, 
provided it is returned postage paid to: Orion Warranty Repair, 89 Hangar Way, Watsonville,
CA 95076. If the product is not registered, proof of purchase (such as a copy of the original
invoice) is required.

This warranty does not apply if, in Orion’s judgment, the instrument has been abused, 
mishandled, or modified, nor does it apply to normal wear and tear. This warranty gives you
specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights, which vary from state to state. For 
further warranty service information, contact: Customer Service Department, Orion Telescopes
& Binoculars, P. O. Box 1815, Santa Cruz, CA 95061; (800) 676-1343.
