5. Warranty

GSI Group, LLC Limited Warranty

The GSI Group, LLC (“GSI”) warrants products which it manufactures to be free of defects in materials and workmanship 
under normal usage and conditions for a period of 12 months after sale to the original end-user or if a foreign sale, 
14 months from arrival at port of discharge, whichever is earlier. The end-user’s sole remedy (and GSI’s only obligation) 
is to repair or replace, at GSI’s option and expense, products that in GSI’s judgment, contain a material defect in materials 
or workmanship. Expenses incurred by or on behalf of the end-user without prior written authorization from the GSI 
Warranty Group shall be the sole responsibility of the end-user.

Warranty Extensions:

The Limited Warranty period is extended for the following products:

GSI further warrants that the portable and tower dryer frame and basket, excluding all auger and auger drive components, 
shall be free from defects in materials for a period of time beginning on the twelfth (12

th

) month from the date of purchase 

and continuing until the sixtieth (60

th

) month from the date of purchase (extended warranty period). During the extended 

warranty period, GSI will replace the frame or basket components that prove to be defective under normal conditions 
of use without charge, excluding the labor, transportation, and/or shipping costs incurred in the performance of this 
extended warranty.

Conditions and Limitations:

THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES THAT EXTEND BEYOND THE LIMITED WARRANTY DESCRIPTION SET FORTH 
ABOVE. SPECIFICALLY, GSI MAKES NO FURTHER WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, 
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR 
PURPOSE OR USE IN CONNECTION WITH: (I) PRODUCT MANUFACTURED OR SOLD BY GSI OR (II) ANY ADVICE, 
INSTRUCTION, RECOMMENDATION OR SUGGESTION PROVIDED BY AN AGENT, REPRESENTATIVE OR 
EMPLOYEE OF GSI REGARDING OR RELATED TO THE CONFIGURATION, INSTALLATION, LAYOUT, SUITABILITY 
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR DESIGN OF SUCH PRODUCTS.

GSI shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental or consequential damages, including, without limitation, loss of 
anticipated profits or benefits. The sole and exclusive remedy is set forth in the Limited Warranty, which shall not exceed 
the amount paid for the product purchased. This warranty is not transferable and applies only to the original end-user. GSI 
shall have no obligation or responsibility for any representations or warranties made by or on behalf of any dealer, agent 
or distributor.

GSI assumes no responsibility for claims resulting from construction defects or unauthorized modifications to products 
which it manufactured. Modifications to products not specifically delineated in the manual accompanying the equipment at 
initial sale will void the Limited Warranty.

This Limited Warranty shall not extend to products or parts which have been damaged by negligent use, misuse, alteration, 
accident or which have been improperly/inadequately maintained. This Limited Warranty extends solely to products 
manufactured by GSI.

Prior to installation, the end-user has the responsibility to comply with federal, state and local codes which apply to the 
location and installation of products manufactured or sold by GSI.
