SELLING TERMS & CONDITIONS

The present selling terms and conditions are proof between parties, unless a specific written agreement exists between the Customer and our headquarter HYDROCLEAN PA GOHELEVE SUD – 56300 NOYAL-PONTIVY

Any order addressed to HYDROCLEAN or acceptance of offer from HYDROCLEAN shall mean acceptance of these terms and conditions, which make Customer’s particular or general terms of purchase void.

The catalogues, printed matters and other commercial or technical documents from HYDROCLEAN, apart from these selling terms and conditions, cannot be considered as contractual documents.

They can be modified without previous notice. We are not responsible for assessing the right choice of products for the final use the customer intends them for. Therefore HYDROCLEAN cannot be held responsible for side effects due to use of its products under conditions or circumstances other than normal conditions of use, or those reasonably expectable.

HYDROCLEAN reserves the right to bring technical or practical modifications to the ordered products provided he quality known by the customer does not suffer from it.

HYDROCLEAN reserves the right to modify the characteristics of its machines without prior notice (documents and pictures not contractual). The power of combustion engines is given according to SAEJ607 standard (Gross – HP).

I –TRANSPORT

a) Unless the customer has expressly made a choice, the means of transport and the choice of the carrier are within HYDROCLEAN’s exclusive province, without involving its responsibility.

b) Delivery of machines occur in warehouses, and transfer of risk occurs whenever transfer of property happens, either by direct remittance to the Customer, by availability notice, or by remittance of goods to the first carrier, whether designated by the Customer or not. As a consequence, the goods travel at the customer’s risks included when they are free delivered or when HYDROCLEAN contributes to transport costs (free delivery or contribution to transport costs must be considered as a concession on price). The Customer is liable for all transport operations (excluding free delivered prices as for financial cost), insurance, custom fees and handling costs.

c) In case of damage or missing parts during transport, precise reservations must be written on the carrier’s transport receipt, and confirmed through registered letter to the carrier within three days.

d) Other claims are only received when written, and must be addressed to our commercial department in NOYAL-PONTIVY within eight days from reception of goods by the Customer. The date of reception is the one noted on the carrier’s receipt. HYDROCLEAN will not consider claims declared later than that. Once this deadline is

over, the goods are conclusively considered as compliant to the order, whatever the claim of the customer (missing items, faulty product…).

e) The lead times that can be communicated remain indicative. We do our best to deliver goods in time, however, possible delays cannot justify cancellation of order or damages.

f) No return of goods will be accepted unless HYDROCLEAN has given preliminary written agreement.

g) Returns will have to be made at the Customer’s risks within 20 working days from HYDROCLEAN’s written agreement. Returns shall be carriage paid, unless preliminary written notice from HYDROCLEAN.

h) In case of late return of bills or late payment, or if terms of payment are not respected, HYDROCLEAN may delay or cancel by law and without notice the current orders, even those not concerned by delay of payment.

i) Failure of payment on due date all or part of an invoice makes due payment of all invoices, including those not due.

j) In case of partial or total litigation on one of our invoices, only the amount questioned on a registered letter addressed to HYDROCLEAN at the latest within eight days from reception can be momentarily excluded from payment, but shall be due for payment as soon as the dispute is settled.

k) Any delay of payment leads to late payment charges of three times the legal rate without notice. This does not change the payability of the debt. The Customer will also have to pay for any other charge linked such as bank charges.

l) HYDROCLEAN may ask for part payment for any order, and mostly if it is a new Customer, a Customer having financial problems or having experienced payment incidents , and if the order represents a significant volume.
