workmanship during the five (5) year period from the date of purchase. TFT’s obligation under this warranty is specifically limited to

replacing or repairing the equipment (or its parts) which are shown by TFT’s examination to be in a defective condition attributable to

TFT. To qualify for this limited warranty, the claimant must return the equipment to TFT, at 3701 Innovation Way, Valparaiso, Indiana

46383-9327 USA, within a reasonable time after discovery of the defect. TFT will examine the equipment. If TFT determines that there is

a defect attributable to it, TFT will correct the problem within a reasonable time. If the equipment is covered by this limited warranty, TFT

will assume the expenses of repair.
If any defect attributable to TFT under this limited warranty cannot be reasonably cured by repair or replacement, TFT may elect to

refund the purchase price of the equipment, less reasonable depreciation, in complete discharge of its obligations under this limited

warranty. If TFT makes this election, claimant shall return the equipment to TFT free and clear of any liens and encumbrances.

intended or unintended beneficiary of the equipment, shall not be entitled to recover from TFT any consequential or incidental damages

for injury to person and/or property resulting from any defective equipment manufactured or assembled by TFT. 
It is agreed and understood that the price stated for the equipment is in part consideration for limiting TFT’s liability. Some states do not

allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above may not apply to you.
TFT shall have no obligation under this limited warranty if the equipment is, or has been, misused or neglected (including failure to

provide reasonable maintenance) or if there have been accidents to the equipment or if it has been repaired or altered by someone else.
THIS  IS A  LIMITED  EXPRESS  WARRANTY  ONLY.  TFT  EXPRESSLY  DISCLAIMS  WITH  RESPECT  TO  THE  EQUIPMENT  ALL

IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
