3.2 PRE-DELIVERY, INSTALLATION ON THE FARM AND WARRANTY
The Company, when selling new goods to their Dealers,
gives a warranty which, subject to certain conditions,
guarantees that the goods are free from defects in
material and workmanship. Since this book is published
for worldwide circulation, it is impossible to detail the
exact terms and conditions of warranty that apply to a
retail customer in any particular country. Purchasers of
new Massey Ferguson equipment should request full
details from their supplying Dealer.
In accordance with the Company's policy of continuous
improvement to its machines, alterations in the
specifications of machines may be made at any time
without notice. The Company accepts no responsibility
for discrepancies which may occur between the specifi-
cations of its machines and the descriptions thereof con-
tained in its publications.
Pre-delivery and Installation on the Farm
A Dealer is required to carry out certain activities when
supplying a new Massey Ferguson tractor. These
consist of a full pre-delivery inspection to ensure that the
tractor supplied is ready for immediate use, and to give
full instruction in the basic principles of operation and
maintenance of the tractor. These instructions will cover
instruments and controls, routine maintenance and
safety precautions. All persons who will be concerned
with the operation and maintenance of the machine
should be present during this instruction period.
NOTE: Massey Ferguson will not accept responsibi-
lity for any claim resulting from the fitment of non-
approved parts or attachments, or unauthorized
modification or alteration.
Warranty Procedure
Correct installation on the farm, coupled with regular
maintenance, will do much to prevent breakdowns. If,
however, operating trouble is experienced during the
warranty period, the following procedure must be
adopted:
• Immediately notify the Dealer from whom you
purchased the tractor, quoting the Model and Serial
Number. It is most important that there should be no
delay, and you should realise that, even where the
original failure is covered by warranty, if the failure is
not repaired immediately, warranty cover may not
apply.
• Provide your Dealer with as much background
information as you can. It will help him to know how
many hours service has been achieved, the type of
work on which you are engaged and the symptoms of
the trouble.
It should be noted that normal maintenance services
such as tuning, brake/clutch adjustments, and the sup-
ply of materials used to service the tractor (oil, filters,
fuel and antifreeze) are not covered by the terms of war-
ranty.
Parts Warning
The fitment of non Massey Ferguson parts
may result in a part of substandard quality
being used. Massey Ferguson will not take the
responsibility for any loss, damage or liability
resulting from the fitment of such parts, and, if
fitted during the normal warranty period the
manufacturer's guarantee may be invalidated.
Moving to a new Location
Only the Massey Ferguson Dealer from whom
you purchased the tractor is responsible for
the protection afforded by your warranty and,
where possible, you should always take your
tractor to him for repair. If, however, you move
to another area or if your tractor should be
working temporarily at some distance from the
Dealer from whom it was purchased, you are
recommended to obtain from that Dealer the
name and address of the Massey Ferguson
Dealer nearest to your new location and to ask
for arrangements to be made for outstanding
service warranty commitments to be
transferred to the latter. If you have left the
area in which the original Dealer operates and
have not made arrangements with a new
Dealer, the latter will readily provide assistan-
ce in an emergency but you will be charged at
normal rates for any work undertaken unless:
• you make it clear that the warranty has not
expired and,
• you give the repairing Dealer the opportunity
to make suitable arrangements with the retai-
ling Dealer.
Service After Warranty
During the warranty period, you should have
all your repairs and maintenance performed
by your Massey Ferguson Dealer. This
ensures that a detailed check is kept on the
progress and performance of your new tractor.
In order to obtain the best results from your
Massey Ferguson tractor, it is important that
regular maintenance and service checks
continue after the warranty period has expired.
Make use of your local Massey Ferguson
Dealer for all major tractor services; a trained
mechanic will spot any problems between one
service and the next.
The mechanics are regularly trained and
updated on the product, servicing techniques
and the use of modern service tools and
diagnostic equipment. They receive regular
Service Bulletins, have all Workshop Manuals
and other such technical information to ensure
that the repair or service is to the standard
required by Massey Ferguson.
