12-Month Limited Warranty
Your Sumachay electric pallet jack or stacker is covered by a 12-month limited warranty starting from the purchase date shown on your invoice.
What Is Covered
- Manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship
- Legitimate breakdowns under normal use within rated capacity
- Motor and lithium battery against manufacturing defects
What Is Not Covered
- Normal wear and tear (wheels, fuses, brushes, etc.)
- Damage from misuse, negligence, or accidents
- Overloading beyond rated weight capacity
- Corrosion or damage from fluids, chemicals, or submersion
- Unauthorized modifications or repairs
- Damage to the hydraulic pump, forks, chassis, motor, or battery resulting from overloading
- Equipment chargers: chargers are consumable accessories subject to variable power conditions, electrical surges, and environmental factors beyond the manufacturer's control
Inspection Requirement
Before any unit can be replaced or repaired under warranty, Sumachay must physically inspect the machine. In some cases, we may request the unit be shipped to our warehouse in Toronto for a full assessment.
- Customers are responsible for all shipping costs to and from our warehouse.
- Replacement or repair decisions are at Sumachay's sole discretion after inspection.
- On-site service is not included and may be subject to additional fees.
Motor & Battery Warranty
Your electric pallet jack or stacker includes warranty coverage for the motor and lithium battery against manufacturing defects. Both components can be permanently damaged by overloading the machine beyond its rated capacity. If inspection shows signs of overload stress — bent forks, deformed frame, burnt motor smell, overheated controller, or leaking hydraulic pump — the warranty will be void.
We recommend routine maintenance: regular cleaning, lubrication, and proper storage to keep your equipment performing at its best.
Do We Service Other Brands?
This depends on whether our parts are compatible with the machine. We do not guarantee that we can fix issues on other-brand machines, but we are willing to attempt repairs where possible. Contact us to discuss your specific requirements.
