Warranty
Festool offers a 3 year limited warranty, one of
the strongest in the industry. This warranty is
valid on the pre-condition that the tool is used and
operated in compliance with the Festool operating
instructions. Festool warrants that the specified
tool will be free from defects in materials and
workmanship for a term of 3 years from the date
of purchase.
Conditions of 1 + 2 warranty
All customers receive a free extended limited
warranty (1 year + 2 years = 3 Years) on new Festool
power tools purchased from an authorized retailer.
Festool is responsible for all shipping costs during
the first year of the warranty. During the second
and third year of the warranty the customer is
responsible for shipping the tool to Festool. Festool
will pay for return shipping to the customer using
UPS Ground Service. All warranty service is valid 3
years from the date of purchase on your receipt or
invoice. Proof of purchase may be required.
Excluded from the coverage under this warranty
are: normal wear and tear, damages caused
by misuse, abuse, or neglect; damage caused
by anything other than defects in material and
workmanship. This warranty does not apply to
accessory items such as circular saw blades, drill
bits, router bits, jigsaw blades, sanding belts, and
grinding wheels. Operating a tool at a voltage
or frequency different from the tool’s rating will
void the warranty. This includes the usage of the
tool in combination with a transformer. Festool
does not condone nor support the use of any non-
Festool engineered, designed, and manufactured
accessories or consumables with Festool products.
Use of any non-Festool products may affect
performance or void the warranty. Festool is not
responsible for any damages or losses incurred
and user assumes all risk and responsibility with
non-Festool derived products. Also excluded are
"wearing parts," such as carbon brushes, lamellas
of air tools, rubber collars and seals, sanding discs
and pads, and Festool gear (hats and shirts).
The obligations of Festool in its sole discretion
under this warranty shall be limited to repair or
replacement or a refund of the purchase price for
any Festool portable power tool that is found to have
a defect in materials or workmanship during the
warranty period. FESTOOL SHALL NOT BE LIABLE
FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
SPECIAL DAMAGES REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY
OF LAW ON WHICH THE CLAIM IS BASED. ALL
WARRANTIES IMPLIED BY STATE LAW, INCLUDING
THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR MERCHANTABILITY
AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE
HEREBY LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THREE
YEARS.
Some states in the U.S. and some Canadian
provinces do not allow the limitations on how long
an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation
may not apply to you. This warranty gives you
specific legal rights, and you may also have other
rights that vary from state to state in the U.S. and
from province to province in Canada.
With the exception of any warranties implied by
state or province law as limited above, the foregoing
express limited warranty is exclusive and in lieu
of all other warranties, guarantees, agreements,
and similar obligations of Festool. Festool makes
no other warranty, express or implied, for Festool
portable power tools. This warranty policy is only
valid for tools that are purchased in the US and
Canada. Warranty policies of other countries
may vary when obtaining warranty service outside
the US and Canada. Some countries do exclude
warranty for products bought outside their territory.
Festool reserves the right to reject the repair of any
tool that is not part of the US/Canada product line.
No agent, representative, distributor, dealer, or
employee of Festool has the authority to increase
or otherwise change the obligations or limitations
of this warranty.
