Service Bulletins
Service Bulletins will be issued when necessary to alert dealers of special repairs. Each bulletin will
give detailed directions and procedures to complete the service.
Procedures For Completion Of Warranty Form
Complete the warranty form available at
or in your dealer’s yellow Ashland
Sales Book. Return this form to Ashland Industries within 30 days of failure.
Use of Photographs
Pictures of the failure are recommended but not required. Photos should be attached to dealer’s
claim when their inclusion will help identify the condition of the part being repaired or replaced,
and thus assisting in approval of the claim. In may cases, the use of photos may eliminate the need
to return parts for evaluation. Photos will not be returned unless specifically requested. Digital
photos are preferred and can be email to
Delayed Warranty Repairs
Warranty repairs should be scheduled and performed as soon as possible after notifying your dealer
and Ashland Industries. There may be circumstances that require the use of the product for a short
period of time by the retail customer, or the availability of repair parts may require the work to
extend past a 30 day period. In these cases, the dealer must notify Ashland Industries in writing of
the extenuating circumstance and advise that the continued use of the product will not enlarge the
warranty claim. These claims will then be processed as if the product is still within the warranty
period.
Denied Claim
Dealers will be notified of a denied claim and notification will state the reason for denial. A dealer
has the right to appeal this claim and must do so within 30 days of notification of denial. If there has
been no appeal within the 30 day period, the claim will be considered closed.
