1) The warranty period starts on the date of sale. The manufacturer, acting through the sales and technical assistance network, will replace free of charge any parts proven defective in material, machining or manufacturing. The warranty does not affect the purchaser’s rights as established under legislation governing the consequences of defects in the machine.

2) Technical personnel will undertake the necessary repairs in the minimum time possible, compatible with organizational needs.

3) To make any claim under the warranty, this certificate of warranty, fully compiled, bearing the dealer’s stamp, and accompanied by the invoice of receipt showing the date of purchase, must be displayed to the personnel authorized to approve work.

4) The warranty will be null and void if:

• The machine has evidently not been serviced correctly,
• The machine has been used for improper purposes or has been modified in any way,
• Unsuitable lubricants and/or fuels have been used,
• Non-original spare parts and/or accessories have been fitted,
• Work has been done on the machine by unauthorized personnel.

5) The warranty does not cover consumables or parts subject to normal wear, such as but not limited to tiller tines, mower blades and clutches.

6) The warranty does not cover any work to update or improve the machine.

7) The warranty does not cover any preparation or servicing work required during the warranty period.

8) Damage incurred during transport must be immediately brought to the attention of the carrier; failure to do so will render null and void the warranty.

9) Engines of other manufacturers (e.g., Honda) fitted to Bertolini machines are covered by the warranties of the engine manufacturer.

10) The warranty does not cover injury or damage caused directly or indirectly to persons or things by defects in the machine or by periods of extended disuse of the machine resulting from the said defects.
