LIMITED WARRANTY
Snorkel warrants each new machine manufactured and sold by it to be free from defects in material and workmanship
for a period of one (1) year from date of delivery to a Customer or for one year after the machine has been placed in
first service in a Dealer rental fleet, whichever comes first. Any part or parts which, upon examination by the Snorkel
Service Department, are found to be defective, will be replaced or repaired, at the sole discretion of Snorkel, through
its local Authorized Dealer at no charge.
Snorkel further warrants the structural components; specifically, the mainframe chassis, turntable, booms and scissor
arms, of each new machine manufactured by it to be free from defects in material and workmanship for an additional
period of four (4) years. Any such part or parts which, upon examination by the Snorkel Service Department, are found
to be defective will be replaced or repaired by Snorkel through its local Authorized Dealer at no charge; however, any
labor charges incurred as a result of such replacement or repair will be the responsibility of the Customer or Dealer.
The Snorkel Service Department must be notified within forty-eight (48) hours of any possible warranty situation
during the applicable warranty period. Personnel performing warranty repair or replacement must obtain specific
approval by Snorkel Service Department prior to performing any warranty repair or replacement.
Customer and Dealer shall not be entitled to the benefits of this warranty and Snorkel shall have no obligations
hereunder unless the “Pre-Delivery and Inspection Report” has been properly completed and returned to the Snorkel
Service Department within ten (10) days after delivery of the Snorkel product to Customer or Dealer’s rental fleet.
Snorkel must be notified, in writing, within ten (10) days, of any machine sold to a Customer from a Dealer’s rental
fleet during the warranty period.
At the direction of the Snorkel Service Department, any component part(s) of Snorkel products to be replaced
or repaired under this warranty program must be returned freight prepaid to the Snorkel Service Department for
inspection. All warranty replacement parts will be shipped freight prepaid (standard ground) from the Snorkel Service
Department or from Snorkel’s Vendor to Dealer or Customer.
REPLACEMENT PARTS WARRANTY
Any replacement or service part made or sold by Snorkel is not subject to the preceding Limited Warranty beyond
the normal warranty period of the machine upon which the part was installed.
THIS WARRANTY EXCLUDES AND SNORKEL DOES NOT WARRANT:
1. Engines, motors, tires and batteries which are manufactured by suppliers to Snorkel, who furnish their own warranty.
Snorkel will, however, to the extent permitted, pass through any such warranty protection to the Customer or
Dealer.
2. Any Snorkel product which has been modified or altered outside Snorkel’s factory without Snorkel’s written approval,
if such modification or alteration, in the sole judgment of Snorkel’s Engineering and/or Service Departments,
adversely affects the stability, reliability or service life of the Snorkel product or any component thereof.
3. Any Snorkel product which has been subject to misuse, improper maintenance or accident. “Misuse” includes but
is not limited to operation beyond the factory-rated load capacity and speeds. “Improper maintenance” includes
but is not limited to failure to follow the recommendations contained in the Snorkel Operation, Maintenance,
Repair Parts Manuals. Snorkel is not responsible for normal maintenance, service adjustments and replacements,
including but not limited to hydraulic fluid, filters and lubrication.
4. Normal wear of any Snorkel component part(s). Normal wear of component parts may vary with the type application
or type of environment in which the machine may be used; such as, but not limited to sandblasting applications.
5. Any Snorkel product that has come in direct contact with any chemical or abrasive material.
6. Incidental or consequential expenses, losses, or damages related to any part or equipment failure, including
but not limited to freight cost to transport the machine to a repair facility, downtime of the machine, lost time for
workers, lost orders, lost rental revenue, lost profits or increased cost.
This warranty is expressly in lieu of all other warranties, representations or liabilities of Snorkel, either expressed or
implied, unless otherwise amended in writing by Snorkel’s President, Vice President-Engineering, Vice President-
Sales or Vice President-Marketing.
SNORKEL MAKES NO WARRANTIES WHICH EXTEND BEYOND THE DESCRIPTION OF THIS
LIMITED WARRANTY. SNORKEL MAKES NO IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY
OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY FOR
INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO INJURY
TO PERSONS OR PROPERTY.
The Customer shall make all warranty claims through its local Authorized Dealer and should contact the Dealer from
whom the Snorkel product was purchased for warranty service. Or, if unable to contact the Dealer, contact the Snorkel
Service Department for further assistance.
