Warranty claim checklist

Have this ready
  • Proof of purchase (a photo of the receipt is usually fine)
  • Model and serial number
  • A short description of the problem and when it started
  • Registration confirmation if the warranty requires it
  • Don't open the tool yourself first; unauthorized repairs can void coverage
