AUSTRALIA’S FAVOURITE TRAILER MANUFACTURER
Warranty
New trailers are covered by a twelve (12) month structural Warranty, given by Trailers 2000 Pty Ltd,
10 Biondi Crescent, Beerwah, Queensland, 4519.
2. The Warranty entitles the original purchaser from the date of purchase to FREE LABOUR AND
REPLACEMENT OF PARTS for a period of 12 months subject to the conditions below. Trailers 2000 Pty Ltd or one of its duly appointed authorised agents will, during normal business hours repair or replace any part which in the opinion of the manufacturer is defective due to faulty material or workmanship provided that the trailer has been operated in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and safe towing practices: Second hand wheels and tyres are not covered under warranty. All repairs under warranty are to be performed at the Trailers 2000 facility at 10 Biondi Crescent, Beerwah Qld 4519. Warranty repairs carried out in other locations require prior authorisation. Unauthorised repairs are not covered under this warranty.
3. The purchaser will be responsible for paying all service call fees or transport charges, and damages and loss incurred in connection with the transportation of the trailer to and from Trailers 2000 Pty Ltd or its accredited service agents’ premises.
4. Due to the extreme conditions box trailers operate under, the surface treatment/paintwork will not be covered by this Warranty.
5. This Warranty does not apply to any trailer which has been:
a) subject to misuse, neglect, accident or alteration by any person
b) damaged or destroyed by fire, flood, Act of God or other inevitable accident
c) hired to any person or persons
This Warranty is in addition to any rights or remedies the purchaser has under the Trades Practices Act or state laws.
6. Unless any addition or attachment to this product has Trailers 2000 Pty Ltd specific approval or is sold as a Trailers 2000 product the Warranty on the trailer is waived. Trailers are designed to perform a specific task under established test loads and unauthorised attachments may produce stresses for which the design is not appropriate.
7. Design, specifications and colours are subject to change without notice.
During the manufacturing process Trailers 2000 Pty Ltd included certain features which assist in prolonging the life of the trailer.
Trailers are subjected to extreme conditions both behind the towing vehicle and our very corrosive environment, as a result of which, failure to adequately maintain a trailer will allow corrosion to progressively increase.
Care and Attention
One can prolong the life of their trailer by following these simple steps and remember, regular maintenance is the key to a long life for any trailer and forms part of the warranty guarantee.
- Trailers must be serviced every 5,000km or annually whichever arrives first.
- Check wheel bearings, wheel bolts, u-bolts, shackle bolts, and coupling bolts regularly.
- Store the trailer under cover or cover the trailer when not in use.
- Store the trailer with the front end higher than the rear. This allows any water which may enter the trailer to flow freely from the tailgate.
- Should scratches, stone chips, or any areas of concern be noticed, these areas must be ‘touched up’ immediately. Any areas on galvanized trailers, tops and cages that are welded and painted with cold galvanized paint must be touched up regularly.
- Prevention is better than cure, (our environment is corrosive and harsh on metal).
- Do not exceed the recommended Gross Vehicle Mass (the combined weight of trailer and load) with any trailer.
- Refuse must not be left in the trailer and after use the trailer must be cleaned, particularly inside.
- Apply rust preventatives, fisholene or even old sump oil to the underneath of the trailer and all seams, anywhere moisture can sit. This will repel the moisture and add years to the life of the trailer. It is recommended that one repeat this process annually.
- We recommend that trailers be kept away from salt water, corrosive chemicals and materials.
