SERVICE POLICY 

 

AFTER THE APPLICABLE WARRANTY PERIOD 

 
 

After the applicable warranty period, or, if one of the above 

exclusions applies, Cannon® products will be repaired for a charge of 
parts plus labor. All factory repairs, after the applicable warranty 
period, carry a 90-Day Limited Warranty, subject to the exclusions 
and limitations stated above. 
 

TO ENFORCE WARRANTY OR TO  
OBTAIN REPAIRS AFTER WARRANTY 

 
  To obtain warranty service in the U.S., the downrigger or part 
believed to be defective and the proof of original purchase (including 
the date of purchase) must be presented to a Cannon® Authorized 
Service Center or to Cannon®’s factory service center in Mankato, 
MN. Except as noted below, any charges incurred for service calls, 
transportation or shipping/freight to/from the Cannon® Authorized 
Service Center or Cannon®’s factory, labor to haul out, remove, re-
install or re-rig products for warranty service, or any similar items are 
the sole and exclusive responsibility of the purchaser. Downriggers 
purchased outside of the U.S. (or parts of such downriggers) must be 
returned prepaid with proof of purchase (including the date of 
purchase and serial number) to any Authorized Cannon® Service 
Center in the country of purchase. Warranty service can be arranged 
by contacting a Cannon® Authorized Service Center listed on the 
enclosed sheet, or by contacting the factory at 1-800-227-6433 or

return your Cannon

Major parts, such as the motor and main frame, must be returned 

to Johnson Outdoors Inc. in Mankato, Minnesota, or a Cannon

® 

Authorized Service Center, for repair or replacement. To reduce 
shipping costs, we suggest removal of loose parts such as the boom 
and rod holders. Small parts that can be easily removed such as the 
handle and/or the counter, may be removed from the downrigger and 
returned for repair or replacement.
