in materials and workmanship for the period of one year from the date of purchase (90 days if 

used by a professional contractor or if used as rental equipment). This warranty does not apply to 

damage due directly or indirectly, to misuse, abuse, negligence or accidents, repairs or alterations 

outside our facilities, normal wear and tear, or to lack of maintenance. We shall in no event be liable 

for death, injuries to persons or property, or for incidental, contingent, special or consequential 

damages arising from the use of our product. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation 

of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation of exclusion may not apply to 

you. THIS WARRANTY IS ExPRESSLY IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, ExPRESS OR 

IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS.

the product at our election or we may elect to refund the purchase price if we cannot readily and 

quickly provide you with a replacement. We will return repaired products at our expense, but if we 

determine there is no defect, or that the defect resulted from causes not within the scope of our 

warranty, then you must bear the cost of returning the product.
