Some problems can be solved with a simple on-site adjustment. Please contact Zomeworks 
Corporation at the address and phone number below before returning your product. You must 
have an RMA number to return the product for warranty repair. If possible, return only the 
parts that are defective or damaged. Reuse your original packing material, if it's available, or 
call the factory for further instructions.

IT IS THE OWNER'S RESPONSIBILITY TO CHECK FOR DAMAGED OR MISSING PARTS 
IMMEDIATELY UPON RECIEPT OF THE TRACK RACK™ OR FIXED RACK.

 Freight claims 

are time sensitive and require immediate notice. If the packaging is damaged, write this on 
the receipt (freight bill) and have the driver initial this. Use this information to contact your 
freight carrier when damage is noticed.

Upon receipt of a defective part(s), freight pre-paid, Zomeworks will determine whether the 
defect was caused in manufacturing. If so, the part(s) will be repaired or replaced at no 
charge to the customer, and will be returned freight pre-paid. If the damage is not a 
manufacturing defect, the factory will contact the customer before any repairs are made. 
Original owners should contact their dealer if immediate replacement part(s) are needed. 
Individuals contacting Zomeworks Corporation desiring immediate replacement part will be 
required to provide Zomeworks Corporation with a valid credit card number to be charged for 
the replacement part(s). Zomeworks Corporation will credit the valid card upon receipt of the 
warranted returned part(s) from the individual.

This warranty does not cover rusting of the steel due to a corrosive environment (such as salt 
air). Standard Track Racks™ and fixed racks are painted mild steel and will require 
maintenance. It is the owner's responsibility to maintain the paint on the rack in order to 
protect the steel against corrosion. For corrosive environments, Zomeworks Corporation can 
manufacture the mounting racks with an epoxy primer.

fitness. In no event shall Zomeworks be liable for consequential or incidental losses or 
damages under any theory of liability, except to the extent that this limitation is found to be 
unenforceable under applicable state law. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation 
of incidental or consequential damages, so this exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty 
gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights that vary from state to
