Full 2 Years Home Use Warranty
Whilst every effort is made to ensure your complete
satisfaction with this tool, occasionally, due to the mass
manufacturing techniques, a tool may not live up to our
required level of performance and you may need the
assistance of our service department.
This product is warranted for a 2-year period for home
domestic use from the date of the original purchase. If
found to be defective in materials or workmanship, the tool
or the offending faulty component will be replaced free of
charge with another of the same item. A small freight
charge may apply.
The warranty replacement unit is only made available by
returning the tool to the place of purchase with a confirmed
register receipt. Proof of purchase is essential. We reserve
the right to reject any claim where the purchase cannot
be verified.
This warranty does not include damage or defects to the
tool caused by or resulting from abuse, accidents,
alterations or commercial or business use.
It also does not cover any bonus accessories unless the
tool is a GMC Platinum Professional model.
Please ensure that you store your receipt in a safe place.
Conditions apply to the above warranty.
