Warranty

Consumer Rights

The buyer should be aware that in relation to goods which are of a kind ordinarily 
acquired for personal, domestic or household use or consumption, certain provisions 
such as the Trade Practices Act, 1974 (Aust) and the Consumer Guarantees Act, 
1993 (NZ) apply.  The terms set out below do not exclude rights and remedies 
implied by a statute which are non-excludable and which may be more extensive than 
those provided by this warranty.

Warranty Service

Warranty Service under both the Express Warranty and the warranties implied by law 
is available at any VICTA Authorised Service Centre. These centres are staffed and 
equipped to provide expert service.

VICTA Express Warranty

The VICTA Express Warranty is additional to the conditions and warranties which are 
mandatorily implied by the laws and regulations of the individual States and Territories 
of Australia and the Trade Practices Act, 1974 (Aust) and the Consumer Guarantees 
Act in New Zealand and any non-excludable laws.

Under Express Warranty the 'Blower' is warranteed from the date of purchase 
against mechanical defects and faulty workmanship or material.  Express Warranty 
covers only the replacement, repair or adjustment of parts which fail due to a fault in 
manufacture.  Defective parts will be replaced or serviced by an Authorised VICTA 
representative without charge for labour or materials, subject to conditions.  Repairs 
or adjustments required by normal use or by failure to follow the manufacturer's 
instructions are chargeable to the owner.

VICTA Service Representatives or agents are authorised to determine whether a claim 
will be covered under warranty, or payable by the owner on completion.

You should seek independent legal advice to determine whether a claim not covered 
by the Express Warranty is covered by any warranties implied by law.

Conditions

•  Express Warranty applies to the original purchaser only. Proof of purchase date 

must be provided prior to Express Warranty work.

•  Use of parts other than genuine VICTA Spare Parts cancels the Express Warranty.

•  Repairs other than by a VICTA Authorised Service Centre cancels the                  

Express Warranty.
