This Limited Warranty applies to all EstiFrame Technologies EasyFrame Products (defined below) purchased after the Effective Date while this Limited Warranty remains in effect.

As used herein, “EasyFrame Products” means the EasyFrame saws and saw systems; provided, however, that the EasyFrame Products do not include any products that are not manufactured by Simpson Strong-Tie. Any products manufactured by a third party (including, but not limited to, any computer, touch-screen monitor and printing equipment) will be subject to the terms of any warranty provided to the original purchaser by such third party.

Although EasyFrame Products are designed for a wide variety of uses, Simpson Strong-Tie assumes no liability for confirming that any EasyFrame Product is appropriate for an intended use, and each intended use of a EasyFrame Product must be reviewed and approved by qualified professionals. Each EasyFrame Product is designed for the uses listed in the Simpson Strong-Tie Documentation, subject to the limitations and other information set forth in the Simpson Strong-Tie Documentation.
EasyFrame Product demonstrations, training, operator examinations, technical and customer support and other services provided by Simpson Strong-Tie are based on Simpson Strong-Tie’s present knowledge and experience, are conducted for illustrative or instructive purposes only, do not constitute a warranty of EasyFrame Product capabilities, specifications or installation and do not modify the applicable Limited Warranty for EasyFrame Products set forth herein.

ALL WARRANTY OBLIGATIONS OF SIMPSON STRONG-TIE SHALL BE LIMITED, AT SIMPSON STRONG-TIE’S ABSOLUTE DISCRETION, TO EITHER REPAIRING THE DEFECTIVE EASYFRAME PRODUCT OR PROVIDING A REPLACEMENT FOR THE DEFECTIVE EASYFRAME PRODUCT. THIS REMEDY CONSTITUTES SIMPSON STRONG-TIE’S SOLE OBLIGATION AND LIABILITY AND THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY OF PURCHASER AND, WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, EXCLUDES ANY LABOR OR OTHER COSTS INCURRED IN CONNECTION WITH A WARRANTY CLAIM. PURCHASER ASSUMES ALL RISK AND LIABILITY ASSOCIATED WITH ANY USE OF THE EASYFRAME PRODUCT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO SUITABILITY FOR ITS INTENDED USE.
THE LIMITED WARRANTY HEREIN IS EXPRESSLY IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, AND, WHERE LAWFUL, SIMPSON STRONG-TIE DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, COURSE OF DEALING OR TRADE USAGE.

SIMPSON STRONG-TIE'S ENTIRE LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE DEFECTIVE EASYFRAME PRODUCT. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
