3. CLAIMS PROCEDURE
3.1 In the first instance please contact the retailer who supplied the product to you. Many initial problems with machines originally thought to be due to faulty parts are solved by correct setting up or adjustment of the machines. Your dealer should be able to resolve the majority of these
issues much more quickly than processing a claim under the guarantee.
3.2 If the dealer who supplied the product to you has been unable to satisfy your query, any claim made under this Guarantee should be made directly to FOX UK. A FOX Return Claim Form complete with an FR Number will be emailed to you which should be completed in full and returned as soon as possible. Please note that this form must be returned within 30 days or the
claim is invalidated.
3.3 It is essential that any claim reaches FOX UK by the last day of this Guarantee at the latest. No late claims will be considered.
3.4 We will contact you once we have received your initial claim form. If it is necessary to return the item, in most cases but subject always to clause 2.4.6, we will arrange for collection or will provide freepost information to enable return depending on the product’s weight and size.
3.5 When a machine is returned, it is the responsibility of the Customer to ensure that the machine is packaged in the original packaging. Where the original packaging is not available a suitable alternative must be used to ensure maximum protection for the machine. Any repair required due to damage incurred during transit will be chargeable.
3.6 All machines must be returned in a clean condition to allow for examination. Any machine returned in an unclean condition will incur a cleaning charge.
3.7 FOX UK will contact you direct should further information be required or needs to be communicated in respect of the repair. Should there be no response within a period of 30 days
the machine will be scrapped. 
3.8 Any repair which does not fall under the terms of the Guarantee is chargeable.
