11-3 Warranty
Sterling warrants all equipment manufactured by it to be free from defects in workmanship and material when used under recommended conditions. The Company’s obligation is limited to repair or replace FOB the factory any parts that are returned prepaid within one year of equipment shipment to the original purchaser, and which, in the Company’s opinion, are defective. Any replacement part assumes the unused portion of this warranty.
This parts warranty does not cover any labor charges for replacement of parts, adjustment repairs, or any other work. This warranty does not apply to any equipment which, in the Company’s opinion, has been subjected to misuse, negligence, or operation in excess of recommended limits, including freezing or which has been repaired or altered without the Company’s express authorization. If the serial number has been defaced or removed from the component, the warranty on that component is void. Defective parts become the property of the warrantor and are to be returned.
The Company is not liable for any incidental, consequential, or special damages or expense. The Company’s obligation for parts not furnished as components of its manufactured equipment is limited to the warranty of the manufacturers of said parts.
Any sales, use, excise, or other tax incident to the replacement of parts under this warranty is the responsibility of the purchaser.
The company neither assumes nor authorizes any other persons to assume for it any liability in connection with the sale of its equipment not expressed in this warranty.
