• Damage to the product which was caused by non-observance of the assembly instructions, improper installation, non-observance of the operating instructions (e.g. connection to an incorrect mains voltage or type of current) or the maintenance and safety regulations or use of the product in unsuitable environmental conditions as well as by insufficient care and maintenance.
• Damage to the product caused by misuse or improper application (such as overloading the product or using non-approved tools and accessories), penetration of foreign bodies into the product (such as sand, stones or dust), transport damage, use of force or external influences (such as damage caused if dropped).
• Damage to the product or parts of the product which is due to intentional, normal (operational) or other natural wear as well as damage and/or wearing of wear parts.

Defects in the product which have been caused by the use of accessories, expansions or spare parts that are not original parts or are not used as intended.

• Products on which changes or modifications have been made.
• Minor deviations from the target characteristics which are irrelevant for the value and usability of the product.

• Products that are very dirty and are therefore refused by the service personnel.
• Claims for damages and consequential damages are generally excluded from this warranty.
• The warranty period is usually 5 years (12 months for batteries/rechargeable batteries) and starts from the date of purchase of the product. The date on the original purchase receipt is decisive. Warranty claims must be made immediately after becoming aware of them. The assertion of warranty claims after expiry of the warranty period is excluded. The repair or replacement of the product does not result in an extension of the warranty period, nor does this service initiate a new warranty period for the product or for any installed spare parts. This also applies when using an on-site service. A prerequisite for a claim under the warranty is that the manufacturer, as the guarantor, is enabled to examine the warranty claim by sending in the goods at the manufacturer's request. Care must be taken to avoid damage during transport by using appropriate packaging. The product concerned is to be cleaned and returned to the service centre together with a copy of the purchase receipt, which must include the date of purchase and the product designation. If a product is sent in incomplete without the complete scope of delivery, the missing accessories will be charged / deducted in value if the product is exchanged or in the event of a refund. Partially or completely dismantled products cannot be accepted as a warranty claim. In the event of an unjustified complaint or if outside the warranty period, the purchaser shall generally bear the transport costs and the transport risk. Please report a warranty claim in advance to the service centre (see below). It is generally agreed upon that the defective product will be returned to the service address given below with a brief description of the fault by organised return or, in the case of repair outside the warranty period, with sufficient postage, taking the appropriate packaging and shipping guidelines into account. Please note that your product (depending on the model) will be free of all operating materials when returned for safety reasons. The product sent to our service centre must be packaged in such a way that damage to the product under complaint is avoided during transport. After successful repair / replacement, we will send the product back to you free of charge. If products cannot be repaired or replaced, a sum up to the purchase price of the defective product may be refunded at our own discretion, taking into account any deduction for wear and tear. These warranties are only for the benefit of the original private purchaser and cannot be assigned or transferred.
• Extension of the warranty period to 10 years: Scheppach offers an additional warranty extension of 5 years on products of the Scheppach 20V series. Thus, the warranty period for these products totals 10 years. Batteries / rechargeable batteries, battery chargers and accessories are excluded from this. You can claim this warranty extension by registering your Scheppach product from this range at https://garantie.scheppach.com no later than 30 days from the date of purchase. After registering online successfully, you will receive confirmation for the item-related warranty extension.
• In order to submit your warranty claim, please contact our service centre.

Preferably, please use our form on our homepage:

https://shop.scheppach.com/contact

Please do not send us any products without first contacting and registering with our service centre.

Contacting our service centre first is mandatory to claim these warranty promises. Warranty claims must be made before expiry of the warranty period within 14 days of discovery of the defect. For this purpose, the original purchase receipt and, if necessary, confirmation of the item-related warranty extension are required.

1. Processing time - We normally process complaint consignments within 14 days of receipt at our service centre. If, in exceptional cases, the processing time mentioned is exceeded, you will be informed in good time.
2. Wear parts are generally excluded from the warranty! - Wear parts are: a) supplied, attached and/or installed batteries / rechargeable batteries as well as b) all model-dependent wear parts (i.e. belts, saw blades, tool attachments, grinding discs, filters, carbon brushes etc., see operating manual).

3. Cost estimate - Products that are not covered or no longer covered by the warranty will be repaired at extra cost. Upon request to our service centre, you can send in the defective products for a cost estimate and, if necessary, give the service centre approval for the repair in writing (by post, e-mail). No further processing will take place without approval for the repair.

The warranty conditions only apply in the current version at the time of the complaint and, if necessary, can be found on our homepage (www.scheppach.com).

In case of translations, the German version is decisive.

Dear customers,

If this product is the object of a quality control check and it happens that this product does not function flawlessly, we apologize for this and you can contact our service department at the address given below. We are pleased to be at your disposal for service and telephone support. The following information will help you process your claims without problems.

For warranty claims, please note the following:

1. These warranty conditions regulate our supplementary warranty services for the purchase (by private end consumers) of new products. Statutory warranty rights are not affected by this warranty. This is the responsibility of the dealer from whom you purchased the product.
2. The manufacturer's warranty covers defects in material or workmanship of the new product purchased by you. If defects in material or workmanship arise during the warranty period, the manufacturer will, at its discretion, provide the following services within the scope of this warranty:

- free repair of the product

- free replacement of the product with an article of equal value (if necessary, also replacement with a subsequent model if the original product is no longer available).

Replaced products or parts become our property. Please note that our products are not designed for commercial, industrial, or professional use. Consequently, the warranty claim is void if the product has been used for commercial, industrial, or industrial purposes during the warranty period or has been subjected to abnormal stress.

3. Our warranty conditions do not include the following:

• Damage to the product caused by failure to follow the installation instructions, incorrect installation, failure to follow the operating instructions (e.g., connection to incorrect mains voltage or current type), or the rules for maintenance and safety, or from use of the product under unsuitable environmental conditions, as well as from improper care and maintenance.

Damage to the product caused by improper use or improper handling (for example, overloading the product or using unsuitable tools or accessories), penetration of foreign bodies into the product (for example, sand, stones, or dust), damage during transport, use of force or impact (for example, damage caused by dropping).

- Damage to the product or parts of it, caused by normal, usual (operational) or other natural wear and tear, such as damage or depreciation of the wearing parts. - Damage to the product caused by the use of non-original accessories, spare parts or reserve parts that are not original or were not used for their intended purpose. - Products that have been modified or altered. - Insignificant deviations from the normal state, if they are not of significance for the value or usability of the product. - Products that have been subjected to unauthorized repair or adjustment, especially by an unauthorized third party. - If the marking on the product or the identification information for the product (sticker or machine plate) is missing or illegible. - Products that have been frozen and the damage is discovered by service personnel. - The claims for disinfection and disinsection are excluded from this warranty.

1. The warranty period is usually 5 years (12 months for batteries/accumulator batteries) and starts from the date of purchase of the product. The date of the original cash receipt for the purchase is decisive. Warranty claims must be submitted immediately after discovery. Warranty claims after the expiry of the warranty period are excluded. Repair or replacement of the product does not extend the warranty period, nor does it start a new warranty period for the product or for any installed spare parts. This also applies to on-site service. The submission of a warranty claim gives the manufacturer, as a guarantor, the opportunity to examine the warranty case upon receipt of the goods. It is important to ensure that the goods are protected from damage during transport by using suitable packaging. The defective product must be returned to the service center together with a copy of the cash receipt for the purchase, which must contain the date of purchase and the name of the product. If the product is sent without proper packaging, the accessories will be credited/deducted in value. If the product is replaced or the amount is refunded, partially or fully disassembled products cannot be accepted as warranty claims. If the complaint is unfounded or the warranty period has expired, the buyer bears the transport costs and transport risk. Please contact the service center in advance for warranty claims (see below). As a rule, it is agreed that the defective product, with a brief description of the damage, is sent through an organized carrier - in case of repair beyond the warranty period.

To obtain a replacement sum for warranty claims, you must follow the corresponding instructions for packaging and shipping to the service address, as described below. Please note that for safety reasons, your product (depending on the model) will be returned without any operating materials. Products sent to our service center must be packaged in such a way as to avoid damage to the product during transport. Once the repair/maintenance is completed, we will send the product back to you free of charge. If the product cannot be repaired or replaced, we may reimburse the purchase price of the defective product, taking into account any wear and tear. These warranty conditions apply only to the original purchaser and cannot be transferred or resold.

1. Extension of warranty period to 10 years: Scheppach offers an additional warranty extension of 5 years for products from the Scheppach 20V series. Consequently, the warranty period for these products is a total of 10 years. Excluded are batteries/accumulators, charging devices, and accessories. You can take advantage of this warranty extension by registering your Scheppach product from this series online at the address https://Garantie.scheppach.com no later than 30 days from the date of purchase. After successful online registration, you will receive confirmation of the warranty extension associated with the article.
2. To submit a warranty claim, please contact our service center.
