LIMITED WARRANTY

KUHN S.A. of 4 Impasse des Fabriques, 67706 SAVERNE CEDEX, France (hereinafter called the
«Company») warrants, in accordance with the provisions below, to each original retail purchaser of
KUHN new equipment of its own manufacture, from an authorized KUHN dealer, that such equipment
is, at the time of delivery to such purchaser, free from defects in material and workmanship and that
such equipment will be warranted for a period of one year starting from the date the goods are delivered
to the end user and during this period up to a limit of 500 hours use, providing the machine is used and
serviced in accordance with the recommendations in the Operator’s Manual.

THESE CONDITIONS ARE SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING EXCEPTIONS :

1. Parts of machines which are not of our manufacture i.e. tyres, belts, P.T.O. shafts, clutches etc., are not

covered by this Limited Warranty but are subject to the warranty of the original manufacturer.  Any claim
falling into this category will be taken up with the manufacturer concerned.

2. Warranty claims applying to these types of parts must be handled in the same way as if they were parts

manufactured by KUHN.  However, compensation will be paid in accordance with the warranty agree-
ment of the manufacturer concerned in as much as the latter justifies such a claim.

3. This Limited Warranty will be withdrawn if any equipment has been used for purposes other than for

which it was intended or if it has been misused, neglected or damaged by accident or let out on hire.  Nor
can claims be accepted if parts other than those manufactured  by us have been incorporated in any of
our equipment.  Furthermore, the Company shall not be responsible for damage in transit or handling by
any common carrier and under no circumstances within or without the warranty period will the Company
be liable for damages for loss of use or damages resulting from delay or any consequential damage.

We cannot be held responsible for loss of earnings caused by a breakdown or for injuries either to the owner
or to a third party,  nor can we be called upon to be responsible for labor charges, other than originally
agreed, incurred in the removal or replacements of components.

THE CUSTOMER WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR AND BEAR THE COSTS OF:

1. Normal maintenance such as greasing, maintenance of oil levels, minor adjustments, etc.

2. Transportation of any kind of any KUHN product to and from the place the warranty work is performed.

3. Dealer travel time to and from the machine or to deliver and return the machine from the workshop for

repair.

4. Dealer travelling costs.

Parts defined as normal wearing items are listed as follows and are not in any way covered under this
Limited Warranty :
V belts, discs, knives, wear plates, disc guards, tires, torque limiters, hydraulic hoses, pitman shafts, swath
sticks, blades, tines and tine holders.

KUHN Limited Warranty will not apply to any product which is altered or modified without the expressed
permission of the Company and/or repaired by anyone other than Authorized Service Distributors or
Authorized Service Dealers.
