WHAT IS THE PERIOD OF COVERAGE? 

The general JET warranty lasts for the time period specified in the product literature of each product. 

WHAT IS NOT COVERED? 

Five Year Warranties do not cover woodworking (WW) products used for commercial, industrial or educational

at our option. We will return the repaired product or replacement at our expense unless it is determined by us that 
there is no defect, or that the defect resulted from causes not within the scope of our warranty in which case we will, 
at your direction, dispose of or return the product. In the event you choose to have the product returned, you will be 
responsible for the shipping and handling costs of the return.
