Who the warranty protects

Fastbind warranty program is valid for all Fastbind machines purchased in the US from authorized dealers by the first consumer purchaser. To see if your dealer is authorized to sell and service Fastbind products, please contact us.

What the warranty covers

Repair or replace free of charge, for the original purchaser, any part or parts found by inspection to be defective by our factory authorized service outlet or by the manufacturer at Helsinki, Finland. All transportation charges on parts submitted for repair or replacement under this warranty shall be paid for by the purchaser.

All service under this warranty will be furnished and performed by factory authorized service stations or by the manufacturer. Warranty service does not extend the warranty period.

What the warranty does not cover

The warranty is limited to the value of the product and it does not cover damage caused by:

•  transportation
• normal wear and tear
• neglected or improper maintenance
• misuse
• damage caused by acts of god, war or any other type of damage caused outside the normal everyday usage of the machine by an operator who has been trained by an Authorized Fastbind Dealer.

The Glue pot and its internal mechanisms are not covered under this warranty if damage is caused by foreign substances (including but not limited to dirt, paper, water, metal objects) that enter the glue pot, and the factory will make the final determination of the cause and can approve or reject the replacement under warranty at their discretion.

The warranty will be void if hot melt (dry adhesive) of any type, other than approved and recommended hot melts are used in the machine for any reason. While most acrylic hot melt used in today’s binding machines are chemically similar, there are very subtle but greatly important differences between them. Only Fastbind recommended and approved hot melt will both make a superior bind and not cause any damage to the machines internal moving parts. Even minor variations in compounds or melting points will cause inadequate binding and can ruin the machine. If you have any question if your hot melt is approved or will cause damage to your machine, contact us immediately.  

The warranty will be voided if machine’s type plate has been wholly or partially removed or erased.

Maping Co is not responsible for any damages, including but not limited to direct, indirect or consequential damages, loss of material, profit or interruption of business. Maping Co may at any time discharge its warranty by refunding the purchase price and taking back the product.

This warranty is void if you purchase your machine from anyone other than a Fastbind Authorized Dealer. To confirm that your dealer is an Authorized Fastbind Dealer, contact us.
