This warranty does not cover any damage due to accident, misuse, abuse, or negligence. Any alteration, repair or
modification of the product outside the Thern, Inc. factory shall void this warranty. This warranty does not cover any
costs for removal of our product, downtime, or any other incidental or consequential costs or damages resulting from
the claimed defects. This warranty does not cover brake discs, wire rope or other wear components, as their life is
subject to use conditions which vary between applications.
