Date of Purchase: ___________________________
From (Dealer): ______________________________________
Model Number: _____________________________
Serial Number: ______________________________________
Woods Equipment Company (“WOODS”) warrants this product to be free from defects in material and workmanship. Except as otherwise set
forth below, the duration of this Warranty shall be twelve (12) months commencing on the in-service date of the product or fifteen months after
shipment from the factory or 2,000 hours of service, whichever occurs first. Proof of the in-service date must be provided for claims involving
product that originally shipped more than twelve (12) months prior to the date of the claim.
Under no circumstances will this Warranty apply in the event that the product, in the good faith opinion of WOODS, has been subjected to
improper operation, improper maintenance, misuse, inappropriate application or an accident. This Warranty does not apply in the event that the
product has been materially modified or repaired by someone other than WOODS, a WOODS authorized dealer or distributor, and/or a WOODS
authorized service center. This Warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, or normal maintenance items, as more specifically described
below. This Warranty also does not cover repairs made with parts other than those obtained through WOODS.
This Warranty is extended solely to the original purchaser of new and unused product, including, but not limited to, purchases made from
authorized Woods dealers. Should such original purchaser sell or otherwise transfer this product to a third party, this Warranty does not transfer
to the third party purchaser in any way. There are no third party beneficiaries of this Warranty.
WOODS’ obligation under this Warranty is limited to, at WOODS’ option, the repair or replacement, free of charge, of the product if WOODS,
in its sole discretion, deems it to be defective or in noncompliance with this Warranty. The product must be returned to WOODS with proof
of purchase within thirty (30) days after such defect or noncompliance is discovered or should have been discovered, routed through the
dealer and distributor from whom the purchase was made, transportation charges prepaid. WOODS shall complete such repair or
replacement within a reasonable time after WOODS receives the product. THERE ARE NO OTHER REMEDIES UNDER THIS
WARRANTY. THE REMEDY OF REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT IS THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY UNDER THIS WARRANTY.
THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES, WHICH EXTEND BEYOND THE DESCRIPTION ON THE FACE OF THIS WARRANTY. WOODS
MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AND WOODS SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY
OF MERCHANTABILITY AND/OR ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
WOODS shall not be liable for any incidental or consequential losses, damages or expenses, arising directly or indirectly from the
product, whether such claim is based upon breach of contract, breach of warranty, negligence, strict liability in tort or any other legal
theory. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, WOODS specifically disclaims any damages relating to (i) lost profits, business,
revenue or goodwill; (ii) any expense or loss incurred for labor, supplies, substitute machinery or rental; or (iii) any other type of damage to
property or economic loss.
This Warranty is subject to any existing conditions of supply, which may directly affect WOODS’ ability to obtain materials or manufacturer
replacement parts.
No agent, representative, dealer, distributor, serviceperson, or employee of any company, including without limitation, WOODS, its authorized
dealers, distributors, and service centers, is authorized to alter, modify or enlarge this Warranty.
Contact an authorized WOODS dealer or service center for warranty service. Common issues that would NOT be covered by this Warranty
Policy include, but are not limited to, the examples listed below this Policy.
Examples of Common, Non-Covered Claims
1. The owner and operator are responsible for maintaining weld integrity on attachments subject to weld erosion from ongoing contact with soils, rocks,
and other materials. Different materials have differing abrasive characteristics that will erode the structural welds of ground-engaging attachments at
differing rates. Structural failures may occur as a result of excessive weld erosion. The owner and operator are responsible for maintaining necessary
weld sizes and re-welding eroded welds with industry-approved procedures. Woods will not accept warranty claims for weld erosion or structural
failures of the attachment as a result of weld erosion.
2. Attachments are used extensively in ground-engaging operations and, as a result, the teeth, tooth holders, cutting edges, bucket edges, ripper shanks, and
other portions of the attachment are subject to abrasion and resulting wear. Woods will not accept warranty claims for wear of components or wear of
areas of the attachment subject to ground-engaging wear.
3. The owner and operator are responsible for examining the attachment for any weld or structural cracking. Any such cracking caused by a defect in
materials or workmanship by Woods will be covered under the Woods Warranty Policy. If the owner or operator continues to operate the attachment
after weld cracking or structural cracking is visible or should have reasonably been visible, and as a result of continued operation, additional damage to
the attachment results, Woods will not accept responsibility for the additional damage caused to other welds or to the attachment structure.
4. Materially modifying Woods attachments may result in premature failures of the attachment. Woods will not accept warranty claims on attachments that
have been materially modified.
5. Misapplications of attachments may result in premature wear, breakage, or structural failures of the attachment. Woods will not accept warranty claims
on attachments that have been misapplied. For instance, using a general purpose excavator bucket in an application requiring a heavy or severe duty
bucket or using the excavator bucket as a “jack hammer” to break concrete are considered misapplications.
