Limited Warranty

Winona Van Norman (WVN) warrants products manufactured and sold by it to be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of twelve months from the date of shipment, except that parts sold for the repair or replacement of existing equipment will only be warranted for a period of 90 days from the date of installation. However, expendable tooling items and all cutting tools are not warranted, and are sold “as is”. If, upon inspection by WVN, any warranted product shall prove defective in materials or workmanship during the warranty period, that product shall be repaired or replaced at WVN’s option if the buyer, at its sole expense, returns the products to WVN’s factory or such other place as WVN designates. Such repair or replacement shall be WVN’s sole obligation and the buyer’s exclusive remedy under this warranty.

This warranty supersedes all prior oral or written agreements, statements, promises, advertising or representations.

THIS WARRANTY IS EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AND WVN EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS AND EXCLUDES ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES THAT EXTEND BEYOND

THE DESCRIPTION OF THE FACE HEREOF.

WVN’s liability in contract, in tort (negligence, strict liability, or any other theory), under any warranty, or under any other legal or equitable theory of whatever type, shall not exceed the purchase price paid by the buyer, and under no circumstance shall WVN be liable for special, indirect, incidental or consequential damages. The amount of the purchase price of the equipment is determined in part by the fact that the buyer has agreed to so limit the seller’s liability.

No action arising out of any transaction under this agreement may be brought by the purchaser more than one year after the cause of action has accrued.

Some states do not allow an exclusion or limitation of consequential or incidental damages, so the above limitation of liability may not apply to you.

Prices shown do not include any State or Local Excise, Sales, or Occupational Taxes imposed on the sale, use, or ownership of the articles and materials covered thereby and are subject to the addition of such taxes where applicable.

Contact the Factory or Territory Manager for “Replacement Parts” prices. Prices are subject to change without notice. We reserve the right to make continuing changes in our products without incurring any obligation on units previously sold.
