9.0 WARRANTY

Task Force Tips LLC, 3701 Innovation Way, Valparaiso, Indiana 46383-9327 USA (“TFT”) warrants to the original purchaser of 
its products (“equipment”), and to anyone to whom it is transferred, that the equipment shall be free from defects in material and 
workmanship during the 

fi

 ve (5) year period from the date of purchase.

TFT’s obligation under this warranty is speci

fi

 cally 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.
This is a limited warranty. The original purchaser of the equipment, any person to whom it is transferred, and any person who is 
an intended or unintended bene

fi

 ciary 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. 
THERE IS NO WARRANTY OF ANY NATURE MADE BY TFT BEYOND THAT STATED IN THIS DOCUMENT.
This limited warranty gives you speci

fi

 c legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
