Operating instructions for the SPACEBIRD model boat, Order No. 2017 

 

Model description 

The SPACEBIRD is based on a design study for a high-speed racing boat. The modern colour scheme 
and carbon-look sponsons give the vessel a highly futuristic appearance, and it is a real head-turner at 
any lakeside. The hull features a basic white finish, while the decal sheet is designed to match virtually 
any colour; this allows the modeller to finish the boat in the colour scheme of his choice. In principle the 
model is suitable for running in the HYDRO 1 and HYDRO S7 classes, but it is not optimised for such 
applications.

675 mm

Manufacturer’s declaration from Graupner GmbH & Co. KG 
Content of the manufacturer’s declaration: 
If material defects or manufacturing faults should arise in a product distributed by us in the Federal 
Republic of Germany and purchased by a consumer (§ 13 BGB), we, Graupner GmbH & Co. KG, D-
73230 Kirchheim/Teck, Germany, acknowledge the obligation to correct those defects within the 
limitations described below. 
The consumer is not entitled to exploit this manufacturer’s declaration if the failure in the usability of the 
product is due to natural wear, use under competition conditions, incompetent or improper use (including 
incorrect installation) or external influences. 
This manufacturer’s declaration does not affect the consumer’s legal or contractual rights regarding 
defects arising from the purchase contract between the consumer and the vendor (dealer). 
 

Extent of the guarantee 

If a claim is made under guarantee, we undertake at our discretion to repair or replace the defective 
goods. We will not consider supplementary claims, especially for reimbursement of costs relating to the 
defect (e.g. installation / removal costs) and compensation for consequent damages unless they are 
allowed by statute. This does not affect claims based on legal regulations, especially according to product 
liability law. 
 

Guarantee requirements 

The purchaser is required to make the guarantee claim in writing, and must enclose original proof of 
purchase (e.g. invoice, receipt, delivery note) and this guarantee card. He must send the defective goods 
to us at his own cost, using the following address: 

Gliders 

Brunel Drive, Newark, Nottinghamshire, NG242EG 

 
The purchaser should state the material defect or manufacturing fault, or the symptoms of the fault, in as 
accurate a manner as possible, so that we can check if our guarantee obligation is applicable. 
The goods are transported from the consumer to us and from us to the consumer at the risk of the 
consumer. 
 

Duration of validity 

This declaration only applies to claims made to us during the claim period as stated in this declaration. 
The claim period is 24 months from the date of purchase of the product by the consumer from a dealer in 
the Federal Republic of Germany (date of purchase). If a defect arises after the end of the claim period, or 
if the evidence or documents required according to this declaration in order to make the claim valid are not 
presented until after this period, then the consumer forfeits any rights or claims from this declaration. 
 

Limitation by lapse of time 

If we do not acknowledge the validity of a claim based on this declaration within the claim period, all 
claims based on this declaration are barred by the statute of limitations after six months from the time of 
implementation; however, this cannot occur before the end of the claim period.
