Special Warranty
Provisions
The standard warranty contained in S&C’s standard conditions of sale, as set forth in
Price Sheets 150 and 181, applies to the S&C 6801M Automatic Switch Operator, except
that the first paragraph of the said warranty is replaced by the following:
(1)
General:
The seller warrants to the immediate purchaser or end user for a period of
10 years from the date of shipment that the equipment delivered will be of the kind
and quality specified in the contract description and will be free of defects of work-
manship and material. Should any failure to conform to this warranty appear under
proper and normal use within 10 years after the date of shipment, the seller agrees,
upon prompt notification thereof and confirmation that the equipment has been
stored, installed, operated, inspected, and maintained in accordance with the recom-
mendations of the seller and standard industry practice, to correct the nonconfor-
mity either by repairing any damaged or defective parts of the equipment or (at the
seller’s option) by shipment of necessary replacement parts. The seller’s warranty
does not apply to any equipment that has been disassembled, repaired, or altered by
anyone other than the seller. This limited warranty is granted only to the immediate
purchaser or, if the equipment is purchased by a third party for installation in third-
party equipment, the end user of the equipment. The seller’s duty to perform under
any warranty may be delayed, at the seller’s sole option, until the seller has been
paid in full for all goods purchased by the immediate purchaser. No such delay shall
extend the warranty period.
