WARRANTY
Empire Abrasive Equipment Company (Empire) warrants all parts and equipment in “Normal
Use and Service” against defects in material and workmanship, to the original purchaser, for
fourteen (14) months after shipment, or for twelve (12) months after installation, whichever
comes first.
“Normal Use and Service” is defined as an average of 8 hours of operation per day, 5 days per
week. Be advised that for equipment operated more hours than that, it is incumbent upon the
operators to perform more frequent inspections and maintenance to guard against premature
wear. All components located within the blast chamber are especially vulnerable to wear and
should be inspected daily.
Components that are determined by Empire to be defective within the warranty period will be
replaced or repaired at the factory at NO CHARGE.
