Specific Warranty Policies

CYLINDERS: Cylinders are covered for one (1) year. Disassembly of the cylinder will void the cylinder warranty. In any event of a cylinder failure, submit a warranty claim prior to disassembly or repair. Cylinders under warranty get exchanged if found to be defective. For a cylinder claim to be granted, the defective cylinder must be returned to Popabears at the customer’s expense. If the cylinder is confirmed defective, Popabears will cover the shipping of the new cylinder. If the cylinder is confirmed as non-defective, the customer is responsible for shipping it back and/or the cost of the replacement cylinder.

BREAKERS: Popabears's hammer breakers and post pounders come with a one (1) year parts warranty. Disassembly of the breaker in any way may void the warranty. Please contact Popabears for instructions and authorization before taking apart to verify warranty. Bent and broken tools are not covered by warranty (see ‘Exclusions’ section below).

BRUSH CUTTERS (ALL MODELS): All Popabears brush cutters have a one (1) year parts warranty. Disassembly of the cutter in any way, including the blade carrier, housing components, and/or motor, may void the warranty. Please contact Popabears for instructions and authorization before taking apart to verify warranty.

GRAPPLES: All grapples manufactured by Popabears have a one (1) year parts warranty. Faulty cylinders are covered by warranty (do not disassemble). Bent tines and/or bent hydraulic cylinders are not covered by warranty.

HOSES, COUPLERS, HOSE ROUTING, AND CONNECTIONS: Hoses supplied with attachments are the proper size for most machines, but variations mean hose length may not be correct for every system. It is the end user's responsibility to adjust hose length, ensure safe routing to prevent damage, and to ensure couplers are the correct type for their machine.  Popabears will not cover hose or coupler damage due to poor hose routing or incorrect coupler fitting.

HYDRAULIC MOTORS: Products with hydraulic motors have a one (1) year warranty on parts and labor. Disassembly of the motor voids the warranty. In the event of a motor issue, submit a warranty claim before disassembling anything. Our support team will advise on diagnostic procedures. Warranty motors under warranty get exchanged if found to be defective. Popabears will need the motor returned to our warehouse. Blown seals are not covered under warranty and are not considered a product defect.

STUMP GRINDERS: Stump grinders have a one (1) year warranty on parts and labor*. Disassembly of the grinder in any way, including housing components, and/or motor, may void the warranty. Before disassembly, contact Popabears for instructions and authorization to verify warranty. Broken teeth are not covered by warranty (see ‘Exclusions’ section below).

SHEDS/SHELTERS: Sheds and shelters have a one (1) year warranty against manufacturing defects. Any modifications will void the warranty as will structural failure due to not following installation instructions. These structures are temporary shelters; it is your responsibility to verify their weather tolerance for your area.

OTHER ATTACHMENTS: All other unlisted attachments have a one (1) year warranty against manufacturing defects.

EXCLUSIONS: Bent tines/cylinders, weather damage, normal wear items (blades, teeth, cutting edges, PTO shafts, hoses), modifications, or any abuse/misuse will not be covered by warranty. Popabears reserves the right to decline any warranty claim at their discretion.

OWNERSHIP: The Warranty is only valid to retail purchased products from Popabears's website or authorized dealers (proof of purchase required). No warranty applies to third-party purchases (e.g., auction houses).

In no case shall Popabears, its directors, employees, affiliates, agents, contractors, or licensors be liable for any injury, loss, claim, damages (of any kind, whether based in contract, tort, strict liability, etc.) arising from product use or related to your claim
