SKYJACK, Inc. warrants each new work platform to be
free of defective parts and workmanship. During the
first full year, labor and replacement parts will be provided
by the local authorized Skyjack dealer without charge.
For the following 48 months, structural components found
to be defective will be replaced or repaired at no charge.
A warranty registration card is supplied with each work
platform. The warranty is only effective when the warranty
card has been completed and returned to Skyjack within
15 days from the time of billing. When work platforms
are put into stock, the warranty period does not start
until the work platform has been shipped to the dealers
customer. If a unit is put into service and no warranty
card has been mailed to Skyjack, Inc., the warranty period
will commence 15 days from the date the dealer was
invoiced for the work platform.
All warranty claims are subject to approval by Skyjack’s
Service Department. Skyjack, Inc. reserves the right to
limit or adjust claims with regard to defective parts, labor
or travel time based on usual and customary guidelines.
Parts purchased from sources other than Skyjack will
not be covered under this warranty. Misuse or improper
operation, lack of normal maintenance and inspections
as outlined in this manual, alterations to original design
and/or components or accidents will void all warranty.
Batteries are not covered by this warranty.
The above mentioned warranty statement is exclusive
and no other warranty whether written, oral or implied
shall apply. Skyjack excludes any implied warranty of
merchantability and fitness and accepted no liability for
consequential damages or for other negligence.
