   25. Silicon in trailers including on the roof, outside, and internally is a maintenance item.  Silicon will not last forever; dirt, residue, grime etc can build up and cause the silicon to be ineffective and will need replacement as part of normal maintenance of your trailer, just as you would in your bathroom at home. When replacing silicon, this should be done with high quality silicon, making sure all old silicon has been removed, cleaned and dried out prior to application. Please note that roof leaks can occur due to silicon wear and tear, so please make it part of your regular 3-monthly maintenance checks to thoroughly inspect the silicon throughout your trailer.  
   26. Balance support legs are designed to balance the trailer, not lift the trailer off of the ground.  At no time are the support legs to be used to suspend the trailer, nor should a rattle gun or any leverage be used to try to force them down as this will cause damage to the gears. No warranty is provided to damaged gears on support legs as this is via misuse and therefore not warranted.
   27. The purchaser is responsible for insurance of the trailer from the point of deposit on the trailer. 
   28. Warranty provided on some equipment is determined by a third party supplier.  If a warranty claim is rejected by the supplier, the cost of the invoice will be due and payable by the owner of the trailer.
4. Terms of Warranty
   1. Warranty is only valid to cool rooms and accessories that have been well maintained, kept clean, tidy, and neat. The Purchaser must maintain their trailer and equipment in accordance with the instructions provided in the owner’s manuals and keep records and receipts for such maintenance. Boss Cool Rooms may ask the Purchaser to prove that regular maintenance has been timely and properly performed.
   2. All warranty work is to be carried out by Boss Cool Rooms or by a Boss Cool Rooms authorized representative unless with the express written permission of Boss Cool Rooms. Boss Cool Rooms will repair or replace the item at their discretion.
   3. Warranty claims will require photographic and/or video evidence of the claim to clearly demonstrate the item requiring repairs to ensure your warranty claim is processed efficiently and in a timely manner.
   4. Boss Cool Rooms takes no responsibility for any losses of income, or losses from any other nature occurring while any cool room warranty issue is being warranted and/or repaired.
   5. Boss Cool Rooms takes no responsibility for your success or lack thereof in the food business. We sell you the trailer only as agreed and outlined on your invoice. We make no claims on what you will or will not earn as an operator. We do, however, help you as much as we can, but ultimately you need to run your business.
   6. Our trailers and equipment are always being updated and refined. Some items may not match video exactly, we do our best to inform you in advance. If you have questions please just ask, we are happy to let you know. Our goal is to provide you with the most up-to-date product.
   7. Some items are supplied from third party Australian suppliers. In some cases, you will need to contact third party suppliers directly as they warrant their own items and undertake repairs for you. We will advise if this is the case. They will have their own service network and service you quickly.
   8. Should any warranty or after sales repair work be required and you are located within a 300km radius of our factory or service centre, you will be required to bring your trailer to the factory or service centre for works to be completed.  If you are unable to bring your trailer to the factory or service centre, a $390 + gst service fee applies.  
   9. Tradesmen will not be organised outside of standard working hours to repair or replace equipment; standard working hours being Monday – Friday 8-4pm.  Should you insist on a tradesperson to repair your trailer outside of working hours, the fees will be payable by you, the trailer owner. This is standard across many industries.  In many cases, depending on your location, you will need to take your trailer to a local service centre to have the repair completed. This may cause you to lose income during the short period of time your trailer is being repaired, as with your regular servicing, however, we take no responsibility for compensation at this time. Repairing and maintaining your trailer is part of running a business and should be expected during the warranty period and as ongoing maintenance for your business.
   10. Any replacement part that has been issued to you under the terms of your warranty is covered under warranty for the remainder of your warranty period regardless of the size of the part; whether it is a replacement unit, hose, or simply replacement nuts and bolts, the expiration of the warranty period remains unchanged from 12 months after the date of delivery of your trailer.  Therefore your warranty period does not reset to full warranty term on receipt of a part, for the entire unit OR the part itself.  Your warranty on your trailer will expire 12 months from the date of delivery, regardless of any claims made during the warranty period and replacement parts received.
5. Termination of Warranty
