Warrantor's Obligations as To Defects
In the event that the equipment fails to perform due to defective materials or workmanship attributable to Warrantor under normal use and service within the established warranty period, Purchaser's sole and exclusive remedy and Warrantor's sole liability shall be to replace or repair, in Warrantor's sole and subjective discretion, any defective part at Warrantor's principal place of business without cost to the Purchaser if such defect exists. The determination of whether a product is defective shall be made by Warrantor in Warrantor's sole and subjective discretion. The Purchaser must notify Warrantor prior to shipping any defective part. Warrantor, at its sole discretion, may cover expenses incurred in shipping the defective part to Warrantor for evaluation; provided, however, that Warrantor will not be responsible for labor, travel time, mileage, removal, installation or incidental or consequential damages. However, any part in excess of 140 pounds must be returned by the Purchaser, to the Warrantor's nearest authorized facility at the Purchaser's expense, if return is requested by Warrantor. Warrantor shall have a reasonable time within which to replace or repair the defective part. If Warrantor determines that the product is not defective under the terms of this warranty in Warrantor's sole and subjective discretion, then Purchaser shall be responsible for any expenses incurred by Warrantor in returning the equipment to the Purchaser.
