Limited Warranty Statement
for Stellar Tire Service Trucks, Truck-mounted Cranes, Truck-mounted Stellarc Welders
& Truck-mounted Compressed Air Systems ONLY
Stellar Industries, Inc. (Stellar) warrants products designed and manufactured by Stellar to be free from defects in material and
workmanship under proper use and maintenance. Products must be installed and operated in accordance with Stellar’s written
instructions and stated lifting capacities. The warranty period shall be Twelve (12) month warranty on all Stellar designed and
fabricated parts, and Ninety (90) days repair labor.
The warranty period shall begin from the date recorded by Stellar as the in-service date. This date will be derived from the
completed warranty registration card. In the event a warranty registration card is not received by Stellar, the factory ship date
will be used. Stellar’s obligation under this warranty is limited to, and the sole remedy for any such defect shall be, the repair
and/or replacement (at Stellar’s option) of the part and/or component in question. Stellar after-sales service personnel must be
notified by telephone, fax, e-mail, or mail of any warranty-applicable damage within fourteen (14) days of it’s occurrence. If at all
possible, Stellar will ship the replacement part within 24-hours of notification by the most economical, yet expedient, means
possible. Expedited freight delivery will be at the expense of the owner.
Warranty claims must be submitted and shall be processed in accordance with Stellar’s established warranty claim procedure.
Stellar Service personnel must be contacted prior to any warranty claim. A return materials authorization (RMA) account
number must be issued to the claiming party prior to the return of any warranty parts. Parts returned without prior authorization
will not be recognized for warranty consideration. All damaged parts must be returned to Stellar freight prepaid; freight collect
returns will be refused.
Warranty service will be performed by any Stellar new equipment distributor, or by any Stellar-recognized service center
authorized to service the type of product involved, or at the Stellar factory. At the time of requesting warranty service, the owner
must present evidence of date of delivery of the product. The owner shall be obligated to pay for any overtime labor requested
of the servicing company by the owner, any field service call charges, and any towing and/or transportation charges associated
with moving the equipment to the designated repair/service provider.
All obligations of Stellar and it’s authorized dealers and service providers shall be voided if someone other than an authorized
Stellar dealer provides other than routine maintenance service without prior written approval from Stellar. In the case repair
work is performed on the Stellar-manufactured product, original Stellar parts must be used to keep the warranty in force. The
warranty may also be voided if the product is modified or altered in any way not approved, in writing, by Stellar engineering.
The owner/operator is responsible for furnishing proof of the date of original purchase of the Stellar product in question.
Warranty registration is the ultimate responsibility of the owner and may be accomplished by the completion and return of the
Stellar product registration card provided with the product. If the owner is unsure of registration, he is encouraged to contact
Stellar at the address below to confirm registration of the product in question. This warranty covers only defective material and
workmanship. It does not cover depreciation or damage caused by normal wear and tear, accident, mishap, untrained
operators, or improper or unintended use. The owner has the obligation of performing routine care and maintenance duties as
stated in Stellar’s written instructions, recommendations, and specifications. Any damage resulting from owner/operator failure
to perform such duties shall void the coverage of this warranty. The cost of labor and supplies associated with routine
maintenance will be paid by the owner.
The only remedies the owner has in connection with the breach or performance of any warranty on the Stellar product specified
are those set above. In no event will Stellar, the Stellar distributor/dealer, or any company affiliated with Stellar be liable for
business interruptions, costs of delay, or for any special, indirect, incidental, or consequential costs or damages. Such costs
may include, but are not limited to, loss of time, loss of revenue, loss of use, wages, salaries, commissions, lodging, meals,
towing, hydraulic fluid, or any other incidental cost.
All products purchased by Stellar from outside vendors shall be covered by the warranty offered by that respective
manufacturer only. Stellar does not participate in, or obligate itself to, any such warranty.
Hydraulic cylinders used in Stellar products are subject to the same warranty provisions stated above. Should a cylinder defect
develop within the above stated warranty period, notify Stellar immediately. Stellar will ship, freight prepaid, by the most
effective, expedient, means a new or re-manufactured cylinder of the same size and type. An authorization for return of the
original part will be issued at the time the order is placed. The defective cylinder is to be returned to Stellar freight prepaid by
the owner. Cylinders returned freight collect will be refused. Should the defective cylinder not be returned within 30 days of
shipping the replacement cylinder, the owner is responsible to pay Stellar the full purchase price of the replacement part.
Stellar reserves the right to make changes in design or improvement upon it’s products without imposing upon itself the same
upon it’s products theretofore manufactured.
This warranty will apply to all Stellar Tire Service Trucks, Truck-mounted Cranes, Truck-mounted Stellarc Welders & Truck-
mounted Compressed Air Systems shipped from Stellar’s factory after January 1,1997. The warranty is for the use of the
original owner only and is not transferable without prior written permission from Stellar.
