3. Delivery
The responsibility and transit liability of the goods will pass to the
purchaser immediately on leaving The Woodworkers Ltd premises. All
transport related costs are the purchasers’ care. Insurance for

different contract and chargeable. Claims for the damage should be made to

purchase agreement. When included
The Woodworkers Ltd engineer will
start

relevant issues.

5.
Warranty Terms
New machines,
parts and accessories are covered by the manufacturer’s warranty for
faulty workmanship or materials for 12 months from date of purchase.
Should parts fail under these circumstances they will be replaced free of
charge. The cost of parts only is covered by the warranty and all faulty
parts must be returned to The Woodworkers Paradise Ltd. Parts may be
repaired at our discretion.
The warranty is subject to fair wear & tear and correct use for their
intended purpose. The warranty excludes all edged tooling (cutting
blades), light bulbs and belts. The warranty period is non transferable if
the machine is on sold.
The warranty does not apply in the following cases: (i) where the goods
have been subjected to any misuse, lack of maintenance, servicing, or
handling which is contrary to or outside normal use. (ii) Where the goods
have (without the seller’s prior written consent) in any way been altered,
modified or tampered with in design or construction by the customer. (iii)
Continued use of any goods after any defect becomes apparent or should
become apparent to a reasonably prudent operator or user. (iv) If in the
seller’s opinion any defects are of a cosmetic or non substantial nature.
Used machines,
parts and accessories are NOT covered by a manufacturer’s warranty or any
other warranty. Items are generally given a basic operational workshop
test. If items received are not suitable, a refund is available on the
following conditions: The Woodworkers Paradise Ltd receives written
notification of unsuitability within 7 days of receiving the item. The
Woodworkers Paradise Ltd receives the returned item in the same condition
as it was sent, within a further 7 days. All freight costs are paid by the
customer.
Warranty services
will be provided with minimum delay. While every effort will be made to
ensure this, the time frame on completion of the solution is very
dependent on the fact of sourcing the replacement parts and technical
support. The purchaser cannot arrange a third party or its own serviceman
to fix the problem and then claim for warranty, without The Woodworkers
Paradise Ltd written approval. Warranty does not cover to the following:
Failure due to incorrect usage or human error. Obtaining or improving
features not in the original agreement. Software is not a product; bugs,
glitches, etc which do not interfere with the major operation are not
considered as warranty issues.

seller for the purposes of a business.

with express written permission of our management. Indent and procured
items cannot be returned for credit. In the special case of goods being
accepted for return, a restocking charge of 15% applies, goods must be
received in the original condition and all freight costs are paid by the
customer.
7. Specification Accuracy
Every effort has been made to ensure the specifications and features of
goods on the website and quotations are correct and up-to-date. However
The Woodworkers Paradise Ltd does not guarantee it and reserves the right
to modify those specifications without any further notice. If any
specifications are considered critical to the customers purchase, please
notify The Woodworkers Paradise Ltd, so we can arrange for these
specifications to be confirmed to you in writing.
8. Limitation of Liability

or any consequential indirect loss, or damage of any kind arising directly
or indirectly from any breach of the seller’s obligations or in tort.

obtained to any person for the above purposes.
