7.0 WARRANTY
Task Force Tips LLC, 3701 Innovation Way, Valparaiso, Indiana 46383-9327 USA (“TFT”) warrants to the original purchaser of its
products (“equipment”), and to anyone to whom it is transferred, that the equipment shall be free from defects in material and
workmanship during the five (5) year period from the date of purchase. TFT’s obligation under this warranty is specifically limited to
replacing or repairing the equipment (or its parts) which are shown by TFT’s examination to be in a defective condition attributable to
TFT. To qualify for this limited warranty, the claimant must return the equipment to TFT, at 3701 Innovation Way, Valparaiso, Indiana
46383-9327 USA, within a reasonable time after discovery of the defect. TFT will examine the equipment. If TFT determines that there is
a defect attributable to it, TFT will correct the problem within a reasonable time. If the equipment is covered by this limited warranty, TFT
will assume the expenses of repair.
If any defect attributable to TFT under this limited warranty cannot be reasonably cured by repair or replacement, TFT may elect to
refund the purchase price of the equipment, less reasonable depreciation, in complete discharge of its obligations under this limited
warranty. If TFT makes this election, claimant shall return the equipment to TFT free and clear of any liens and encumbrances.
This is a limited warranty. The original purchaser of the equipment, any person to whom it is transferred, and any person who is an
intended or unintended beneficiary of the equipment, shall not be entitled to recover from TFT any consequential or incidental damages
for injury to person and/or property resulting from any defective equipment manufactured or assembled by TFT.
It is agreed and understood that the price stated for the equipment is in part consideration for limiting TFT’s liability. Some states do not
allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above may not apply to you.
TFT shall have no obligation under this limited warranty if the equipment is, or has been, misused or neglected (including failure to
provide reasonable maintenance) or if there have been accidents to the equipment or if it has been repaired or altered by someone else.
THIS IS A LIMITED EXPRESS WARRANTY ONLY. TFT EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS WITH RESPECT TO THE EQUIPMENT ALL
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
THERE IS NO WARRANTY OF ANY NATURE MADE BY TFT BEYOND THAT STATED IN THIS DOCUMENT.
This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
8.0 MAINTENANCE
TFT products are designed and manufactured to be damage resistant and require minimal maintenance. However, as the primary
firefighting tool upon which your life depends, it should be treated accordingly. The unit should be kept clean and free of dirt by rinsing
with water after each use. Any inoperable or damaged parts should be repaired or replaced before placing the unit in service. To help
prevent mechanical damage, do not drop or throw equipment.
In applications where appliances are left continuously connected to the apparatus or other devices or are used where water is trapped
inside the appliance, the appliance must be flushed with fresh water following each use and inspected for damage.
This appliance should be disconnected, cleaned and visually inspected inside and out at least quarterly, or as water quality and use may
require. Moving parts such as handles, valve ball and couplings should be checked for smooth and free operation. Seals shall be
greased as needed with Silicone based grease such as Molykote 112. Any scrapes that expose bare aluminum should be cleaned and
touched up with enamel paint such as Rust-Oleum. Replace any missing or damaged parts before returning to service.
Any equipment taken out of service due to failure should be returned to the factory for repair or replacement. If you have any questions
regarding the testing or maintenance of your valve, please call Task Force Tips at 800-348-2686.
8.1 SERVICE TESTING
In accordance with NFPA 1962, equipment must be tested a minimum of annually. Units failing any part of this test must be removed
from service, repaired and retested upon completion of the repair.
