Limited Warranty Statement


Home >> Terms and Conditions

Kelley Manufacturing Corporation warrants each new Kelley Product to be free from defects in material and workmanship. This warranty is applicable only for the normal service life expectancy of the product or components, not to exceed twelve consecutive months from the date of delivery of the new Kelley product to the original purchaser. This warranty is valid only if the purchaser has returned to Kelley a signed Warranty Registration Card within ten days after the equipment is delivered to the purchaser. To verify the warranty period, purchaser should keep the sales slip or other proof of the purchase date.

Genuine Kelley replacement parts and components will be warranted for 90 days from date of purchase, or the remainder of the original equipment warranty period, whichever is longer.

Under no circumstances will it cover any merchandise or components thereof, which, in the opinion of Kelley, has been subjected to misuse, unauthorized modifications, alteration, an accident or if repairs have been made with parts other than those obtainable through Kelley. Warranty shall not apply to any part of the equipment if it has been installed, altered, repaired, misused in a way that in the opinion of Kelley affects the reliability of or detracts from the performance of the equipment. Neither does this warranty apply to any part of the equipment if its serial number has been altered, defaced, or removed; nor does it cover replacements or repairs necessitated by normal wear, loss or damage resulting from any cause beyond the control of Kelley including, but not limited to, Acts of God, acts of government, floods, fires, shortages of materials, and labor difficulties.

Within twelve months from the date of purchase any warranty claim must be brought to the attention of the Kelley dealer from whom the equipment was purchased. The dealer will complete a Request for Credit Authorization form and return it to Kelley for consideration. All defective parts must be returned freight prepaid to Kelley before a warranty claim will be considered.

Kelley in no way warrants engines, batteries, tires, pumps, valves or other trade accessories since these items are warranted separately by their respective manufacturer.

Kelley's obligation under this warranty shall be limited to repairing or replacing, free of charge to the original purchaser, any part that, in its judgement, shall show evidence of such defects, provided further that such part shall be returned within thirty (30) days from date of failure to Kelley routed through the dealer and distributor from whom the purchase was made, transportation charges prepaid. The purchaser of the Kelley equipment is responsible for any transportation, damages, or losses that result from a warranty claim.

This warranty shall not be interpreted to render Kelley liable for any costs involving labor. No warranty shall be allowed as to the attachment of the equipment to specific tractors; it is beyond Kelley's control that tractor manufacturers make changes, which may require minor alterations of the mounting and/or attachments. This warranty does not extend to the loss of crops, loss because of delays in completion of jobs or harvest, or any expense or loss incurred for labor, substitute machinery, rental or for any other reason.

Except as set forth above, Kelley shall have no obligation or liability of any kind on account of any equipment and shall not be liable for special or consequential damages. Kelley makes no other warranty, expressed or implied, and, specifically, Kelley disclaims any implied warranty or merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. Some states or provinces do not permit limitations or exclusions of implied or incidental or consequential damages, so the limitations or exclusion in this warranty may not apply.

This warranty is subject to any existing conditions of supply which may directly affect our ability to obtain materials or manufacture replacement parts.

Kelley reserves the right to make improvements in design or changes in specifications at any time, without incurring any obligation to owners of units previously sold.

No one is authorized to alter, modify or enlarge this warranty nor the exclusion, limitations and reservations.
