8. Workshop service, replacement parts and guarantee
Maintenance and repair:
Maintenance and repair of modern motorized devices, as well as their safety-relevant assemblies, require
qualified, specialized training and a workshop equipped with special tools and test devices.
Thus SOLO recommends that you have a specialized SOLO workshop carry out all work that is not described
in these operating instructions. Your SOLO specialist has the required training, experience, and equipment at
his disposal to provide you with the most cost-effective solution and can help you in many ways with advice and
service.
Replacement parts:
Dependable operation and the safety of your device also depend on the quality of the replacement parts that
you use. Use only original SOLO replacement parts.
Only original parts come from the production of the device and thus guarantee the highest possible material
quality, dimensional accuracy, function, and safety. Original replacement parts and accessory parts are
available from your dealer. He also maintains the requisite replacement part lists to determine the required
replacement part numbers, and he is constantly provided with information concerning detail improvements and
innovations in the replacement part offering.
Please note as well that guarantee performances from SOLO are not possible if parts other than SOLO original
parts are used.
Guarantee:
SOLO guarantees problem-free quality and will assume the costs for defect remediation by replacing the
defective parts in the case of material or manufacturing defects that occur within the guarantee period after the
date of purchase.
Please note that specific guarantee conditions apply in some countries. Ask your sales person if you have any
questions. As vendor of the products he is responsible for the guarantee.
We request your understanding that no guarantee can be assumed for damages due to the following:
• Non-compliance with the operating instructions.
• Neglecting required maintenance and repair work.
• Damages due to improper carburetor adjustment.
• Normal wear and tear.
• Obvious overload through persistently exceeding the upper performance limits.
• Using non-approved tools and cutting fixtures.
• Using non-approved cutting bar and chain lengths in the case of chain saws.
• The use of force, improper handling, misuse, or accident.
• Damages caused by overheating due to dirt build up on the ventilator casing.
• Intervention by non-specialized persons, or improper repair attempts.
• The use of unsuitable replacement parts or parts other than SOLO original parts to the extent that they cause
damage.
• Using unsuitable fuel or fuel that has been stored too long.
• Damages that can be traced to implementation conditions from the rental business.

be carried out by a SOLO dealer.
