repaired or replaced at Air Systems’ option. This warranty does not apply to electrical systems or
electronic components. Electrical parts are warranted, to the original user, for 90 days from the
date of sale. During the warranty period, electrical components will be repaired or replaced at Air
Systems’ option.
NO OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, AS TO DESCRIPTION, QUALITY, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR ANY
OTHER MATTER IS GIVEN BY AIR SYSTEMS IN CONNECTION HEREWITH. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL THE SELLER BE LIABLE FOR LOSS OF
PROFITS, ANY OTHER DIRECT OR INDIRECT COSTS, EXPENSES, LOSSES OR
DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF DEFECTS IN, OR FAILURE OF THE PRODUCT OR
ANY PART THEREOF.
The purchaser shall be solely responsible for compliance with all applicable Federal, State and
Local OSHA and/or MSHA requirements. Although Air Systems International believes that its
products, if operated and maintained as shipped from the factory and in accordance with our “operations manual”, conform to OSHA and/or MSHA requirements, there are no implied or expressed
warranties of such compliance extending beyond the limited warranty described herein. Product

Air leaks are not covered under warranty except when they result from a defective system
component, i.e. an on/off valve or regulator or upon initial delivery due to poor workmanship. Air leaks due to poor delivery or damage will be covered under delivery claims. Minor
air leaks are part of routine service and maintenance and are the responsibility of the customer just as are filters and oil changes.
