SERvICE INFORmATION

At Ardisam, we build quality and durability into the design
of our products; but no amount of careful design by us, and
careful maintenance by you, can guarantee a repair-free life
for your auger. Most repairs will be minor, and easily fixed by
following the suggestions in the troubleshooting guide in this
section.
The guide will help you pinpoint the causes of common prob-
lems and identify remedies.
For more complicated repairs, you may want to rely on your
retailer or an authorized repair center (contact your retailer for
a list of authorized mechanics in your area). A parts catalog is
included in this section and can also be found on our website,
www.geteskimo.com.
We will always be glad to answer any questions you have, or
help you find suitable assistance. To order parts or inquire
about warranty, call or write us at the address found below,
under the section ordering repair parts.
