Limited Warranty shall not apply to:
1.

station table tops and welding curtains, or parts that

the equipment.
MILLER PRODUCTS ARE INTENDED FOR PURCHASE AND
USE BY COMMERCIAL/INDUSTRIAL USERS AND PERSONS
TRAINED AND EXPERIENCED IN THE USE AND
MAINTENANCE OF WELDING EQUIPMENT.
In the event of a warranty claim covered by this warranty, the

replacement; or, where authorized in writing by Miller in appropriate
cases, (3) the reasonable cost of repair or replacement at an

Miller’s option of repair or replacement will be F.O.B., Factory at

as determined by Miller. Therefore no compensation or
reimbursement for transportation costs of any kind will be allowed.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE REMEDIES
PROVIDED HEREIN ARE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE
REMEDIES. IN NO EVENT SHALL MILLER BE LIABLE FOR
DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFIT),
WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER
LEGAL THEORY.
ANY EXPRESS WARRANTY NOT PROVIDED HEREIN AND ANY
IMPLIED WARRANTY, GUARANTY OR REPRESENTATION AS
TO PERFORMANCE, AND ANY REMEDY FOR BREACH OF

OPERATION OF LAW, CUSTOM OF TRADE OR COURSE OF
DEALING, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, WITH RESPECT TO ANY AND ALL EQUIPMENT
FURNISHED BY MILLER IS EXCLUDED AND DISCLAIMED BY
MILLER.
Some states in the U.S.A. do not allow limitations of how long an
implied warranty lasts, or the exclusion of incidental, indirect,
special or consequential damages, so the above limitation or
exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty provides specific
legal rights, and other rights may be available, but may vary from
state to state.
In Canada, legislation in some provinces provides for certain
additional warranties or remedies other than as stated herein, and
to the extent that they may not be waived, the limitations and
exclusions set out above may not apply. This Limited Warranty
provides specific legal rights, and other rights may be available, but
may vary from province to province.
