SERvICE INFORmATION
At Ardisam, we build quality and durability into the design of
our products; but no amount of careful design by us, and care-
ful 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 problems
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 breakdown
is included in this manual 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
