This is a repair and/or replacement warranty only and does not allow for a refund. Weldclass reserves the 
right to replace faulty product or parts covered under warranty with alternative / equivalent product or 
parts should the original unit become obsolete or unavailable. No other warranty is expressed or implied. 
This  warranty  is  exclusive  and  in  lieu  of  all  others,  including,  but  not  limited  to  any  warranty  of

for special, indirect or consequential damages. No employee, agent, representative, distributor or agent of 
Weldclass is authorised to change this warranty in any way or grant any other warranty. Notwithstanding 
the foregoing, in no event shall the warranty period extend more than the stated warranty period plus 6 
months from the date Weldclass delivered the product to the authorised  distributor. Warranty is always 
dated from original date of purchase - if warranty repairs are made or if warranty replacements are given 
this does not extend the warranty period. Any decision regarding any warranty claim is made at the sole
