Warranty of Machines: Champion warrants all new machines of its manufacture bearing the name "Champion" and

that Champion elects to repair, the labor and work to be performed in connection with the warranty shall be done during
regular working hours by a Champion authorized service technician. Defective parts become the property of Champion.
Use of replacement parts not authorized by Champion will relieve Champion of all further liability in connection with its
