its drawings as “boom and jib sections, strut, mast, backhitch, gantry, rotating bed, car-
body and crawler side frames” is three (3) years from date of shipment by Manitowoc;

under this warranty shall be valid unless Customer notifies Manitowoc or its authorized
dealer in writing of the defect within sixty (60) days following its discovery, but in no
event later than the expiration of the applicable warranty period and Customer processes
its claim using proper warranty claim procedures.
Manitowoc’s sole obligation to Customer under this warranty is to repair or replace with
re-manufactured or new part or parts, at Manitowoc’s option, F.O.B. original point of ship-
ment, any part or parts which Manitowoc, in its sole discretion, determines to be defective
in materials or workmanship. Manitowoc may require the return of parts, freight charges
prepaid, to Manitowoc’s designated facility for inspection and analysis. Reasonable
freight charges and reasonable labor expenses incurred for approved warranty repairs dur-
ing the applicable general warranty period for each new machine will be reimbursed by
Manitowoc.
This warranty shall not apply to ordinary wear and tear; vandalism; abuse; misuse;
neglect; accident; overloading; altered, modified or changed equipment; equipment or
parts which have not been properly installed, operated or maintained or which have been
improperly adjusted; or damages caused by failure to follow the maintenance procedures
outlined in the applicable owner’s manual or in technical bulletins issued by Manitowoc’s
technical publications department.
THE FOREGOING WARRANTY IS EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER
WARRANTIES WHETHER WRITTEN, ORAL OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY
WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR PURPOSE. The liability of
Manitowoc arising out of the sale, use or operation of Manitowoc machines or parts,
whether in warranty, contract or tort, including claims for special, indirect or consequen-
tial damages shall not in any event exceed the cost of furnishing a replacement for a defec-
tive part or equipment as hereinabove provided. Upon the expiration of the warranty
period, as hereinabove provided, any such liability shall terminate. The foregoing war-
ranty shall constitute the sole and exclusive liability of Manitowoc.
