HiKOKI Warranty

HiKOKI Power Tools Australia Pty Ltd ('HiKOKI') warrants that selected products and services supplied by it and purchased by you from Authorised HiKOKI Dealers throughout Australia are free of defects and come with a limited warranty ('Warranty'). The selected HiKOKI products that come with a limited warranty are specifically set out in the 'Warranty Period and Selected Products' table in this Warranty. The services to which any Warranty applies are those services that are performed with an express warranty. For the avoidance of doubt, the selected HiKOKI product types that are set out in the 'Warranty Period and Selected Products' table include both the HikOKI-branded and Hitachi-branded versions of those HiKOKI product types, provided that the products are purchased on or after 17 June 2019. All other HiKOKI products that are not listed in the Warranty Period and Selected Products table and other products listed under Warranty Exclusions are excluded from this express warranty.

Warranty Claims

If you consider that any Service or selected product listed in the Warranty Period and Selected Products table supplied by HiKOKI is defective, you can lodge a claim under this Warranty and any apparent fault will be rectified free of charge by HiKOKI or a HiKOKI Authorised Service Dealer within the applicable Warranty Period for that selected product or Service, which is effective from the date of purchase provided that you meet the following conditions;

• You must produce the original invoice or other proof of purchase document disclosing the purchase date.
• All costs of installation, cartage, freight, travelling expenses, hiring tools and insurance are paid by the customer.
• The product, being precision equipment, has not been misused, adjusted or serviced by any person other than a HiKOKI Authorised Service Dealer.
• The equipment has been installed correctly and is used in accordance with the HiKOKI instructions supplied with the product.

HiKOKI offers this Warranty to you in addition to all other rights and remedies that you may have under law in relation to the selected products to which this Warranty relates.

If the supply of the Selected Products is a consumer sale pursuant to the Australian Consumer Law, the following statement applies. In this statement, 'goods' means the Selected Products, 'services' means any of HiKOKI's services that come with an express warranty, and 'our' means HiKOKI.

Our goods and services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. For major failures with the service, you are entitled:

• to cancel your service contract with us; and
• to refund for the unused portion, or to compensation for its reduced value.

You are also entitled to choose a refund or replacement for major failures with goods. If a failure with the goods or service does not amount to a major failure, you are entitled to have the failure rectified in a reasonable time. If this is not done you are entitled to a refund for the goods and to cancel the contract for the service and obtain a refund of any unused portion. You are also entitled to be compensated for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage from a failure in the goods or services.

Notwithstanding the proceeding clause, HiKOKI's liability in respect of a breach of a consumer quarantee or any warranty made under these Conditions of Limited Warranty for any of the selected products or services not of a kind ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic or household use is limited, to the extent permissible by law and at the option of HiKOKI to:
