material and workmanship, and that such equipment is covered under this Limited Warranty providing the
machine is used and serviced in accordance with the recommendations in the Operator's manual.
This Limited Warranty covers the equipment for a period of one year starting from the date the

cylinders, etc. are not covered by this Limited Warranty, but are subject to the warranty of the original

Warranty claims applying to these types of parts must be submitted in the same way as if they were parts
manufactured by KUHN. However, compensation will be paid in accordance with the warranty agreement of
the manufacturer concerned, in as much as the latter justifies such a claim.

express permission of the Company, or if parts and/or equipment not approved by Kuhn are used on a
machine manufactured by the Company and/or if repairs have been carried out by anyone other than an
authorized KUHN dealer.
- The Company shall not be responsible for any damage to the machine or its equipment in transit or handling
by any common carrier, within or without the Warranty period. Machines, equipment and parts are transported
at owner’s risk.
- The Company cannot be held responsible for any claims or injuries to the owner or to any third party, nor to
any resulting responsibility.
- Also, on no account can the Company be held liable for incidental or consequential damages (including loss
of anticipated profits) or for any impairment due to a failure, a latent defect or a breakdown of the machine.
