Warranty
The power tools placed on the market and distributed by
Maschinenfabrik
OTTO
BAIER GmbH
take into account the regulations of the laws concerning engineering
tools and equipment to protect against risks to health and safety.
We guarantee the perfect quality of our products and accept the costs of subsequent
repairs by replacing the damaged parts or replacement with a new machine in case of
design, material and/or manufacturing errors within the warranty period. The warranty
period for commercial use is 12 months.
Prerequisite for a warranty claim due to design, material and/or manufacturing
errors is:
1. Proof of purchase and compliance with the instruction manual
A mechanically produced original copy of a purchase voucher must always be submit-
ted in order to make a warranty claim. It must contain the complete address, date of
purchase and type designation of the product.
The instruction manual for the respective machine and the safety instructions must
have been complied with.
Damage due to faulty operation cannot be recognised as a warranty claim.
2. Correct deployment of the machine
Maschinenfabrik
OTTO BAIER GmbH
products are developed and produced for
specific purposes.
A warranty claim cannot be acknowledged in the event of failure to comply with the
intended use in accordance with the instruction manual, misuse or use for another
purpose or use of unsuitable accessories. The warranty does not apply if the machine
is deployed in continuous and piece-work operation or for rental and hire purposes.
3. Compliance with servicing intervals
Regular servicing by us or a servicing and repair firm authorised by us is prerequisite
for warranty claims. Servicing is specified for when the carbon brushes are worn, how-
ever at least once a year.
The machine must be cleaned in accordance with the provisions of the instruction
manual. All warranty entitlements expire in case of intervention/tampering with the
machine by third parties (opening the machine).
Servicing and cleaning work are not generally covered by the warranty.
4. Use of original BAIER spare parts
Ensure that original BAIER spare parts and BAIER accessories only are used. They
are available from authorised dealers. The type and quantity of grease are to be used
according to the valid grease list. Use of non original parts can cause consequential
damage to the machine and an increased risk of accidents. Dismantled, partly disman-
tled machines and machines repaired with third party spare parts are excluded from the
warranty.
5. Wearing parts
Certain components are subject to wear or normal wear and tear resulting from use of
the respective power tool. These components include, among other things, carbon
brushes, ball bearings, switches, power cords, seals, shaft sealing rings. Wearing parts
are not covered by the warranty.
