Carlyle Professional Hand Tools warrants to the original purchaser that the company’s manual click torque wrenches are
free from defects in material or workmanship during the 1 year warranty period. We will repair or replace any manual torque
wrench which fails to give satisfactory service due to defective workmanship or materials (excluding calibration) for 1 year from

box.) Repairs or replacements are warranted as described above for the duration of the original warranty period. Products must
be returned with proof of purchase, freight prepaid, to the warranty service center listed below.
This warranty excludes torque wrenches which have been subjected to abnormal use, accident, neglect, or lack of
maintenance. Any modification, disassembly of this wrench or repair by an unauthorized service center will void the
warranty.
This warranty gives you specific rights. You may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
The foregoing obligation is Carlyle Professional Hand Tools sole liability under this or any implied warranty and under no
circumstances shall Carlyle Professional Hand Tools be liable for any incidental or consequential damages.

Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages so the above limitation
or exclusion may not apply to you.
