Limited Warranty
WMH Tool Group (including JET, Performax, Powermatic and Wilton brands) makes every effort to assure
that its products meet high quality and durability standards and warrants to the original retail
consumer/purchaser of our products that each product be free from defects in materials and workmanship as
follows: 1 YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY ON ALL PRODUCTS UNLESS SPECIFIED OTHERWISE. This
warranty does not apply to defects due directly or indirectly to misuse, abuse, negligence or accidents, normal
wear-and-tear, repair or alterations outside our facilities, or to a lack of maintenance.
WMH TOOL GROUP LIMITS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES TO THE PERIOD SPECIFIED ABOVE, FROM
THE DATE THE PRODUCT WAS PURCHASED AT RETAIL. EXCEPT AS STATED HEREIN, ANY IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OR MERCHANTIBILITY AND FITNESS ARE EXCLUDED. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW
LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG THE IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT
APPLY TO YOU. WMH TOOL GROUP SHALL IN NO EVENT BE LIABLE FOR DEATH, INJURIES TO

To take advantage of this warranty, the product or part must be returned for examination, postage prepaid, to
an Authorized Repair Station designated by our office. Proof of purchase date and an explanation of the
complaint must accompany the merchandise. If our inspection discloses a defect, WMH Tool Group will
either repair or replace the product, or refund the purchase price if we cannot readily and quickly provide a
repair or replacement, if you are willing to accept a refund. WMH Tool Group will return repaired product or
replacement at our expense, but if it is determined there is no defect, or that the defect resulted from causes
not within the scope of our warranty, then the user must bear the cost of storing and returning the product.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights; you may also have other rights, which vary from state to state.
