Warranty Claims and Procedures
1. When returning the machine for claims or warranty repairs, it should be returned in its complete, original packag-
ing to avoid incidental or consequential damages that may discredit the claim or void the warranty. A copy of the
invoice or other proof of purchase also needs to be sent with the machine along with a Return Authorization Number
which should be clearly printed on the box.
2. Upon evaluation of the machine and the determination of the actual defect, the machine will be restored to its
original working condition by the Service Center and shipped back to you free of charge. However, should it be evi-
dent that the problems associated with the machine were caused by or were the result of any misuse, abuse, neglect,
alteration, problems with electrical power, usage not in accordance with product instructions, acts of nature, or im-
proper installations or repairs made by a person other than an authorized Service Technician, you will be charged for
parts and labor.
Take note that it will normally take us at least 2 weeks to diagnose, fix, and return the machine to you. It may take
even longer depending on the problems with the machine and current workload. Verification of the claimed defect
by Tamerica Products authorized personnel will be required prior to issuance of proper credit, exchange, or repair.
Kindly contact your dealer for loaner machines for this is something that we do not provide.
Machine Return:
Should you change your mind about your purchase and would simply want to return the machine, it must be made
within the first 10 days. Take note that you are responsible for cost of shipping for the return and a corresponding
20% restocking fee will be charged. Furthermore, the machine must be in brand-new resalable condition. If after in-
spection it is found to be defective or has been damaged in transit, we will charge you to repair the machine or you
shall be responsible to file a corresponding claim with the carrier.
