PRODUCT WARRANTY

Warranty

Workhorse Ground Solutions

We have put a great deal of engineering effort and investment into designing our ground protection panels, and needless to say – we’re pretty big fans of them (obviously) and so are our loyal customers. We are confident in our engineering and manufacturing process, so we warranty them against manufacturer defects. However, this does not mean that they are unbreakable. Like with any tool, if it is taken beyond its operational limitations and abused, it will suffer damage and potential breakage.

See below for pictures of broken panels that resulted from them being used outside their operational limitations. These were not the result of manufacturer defects and were not covered by our warranty.

Limited Product Warranty

Bike Track, Inc. (parent corporation of the WORKHORSE Ground Solutions brand) warrants to the original purchaser that all authentic WORKHORSE Ground Solutions panels will be free from defects in material and workmanship for the following periods and in the following respects.

  • Panels: Bike Track, Inc. warrants the panels and components against defects in workmanship and materials for a period of 5 years from the date of purchase.

If a defect arises in the WORKHORSE Ground Solutions panels within the applicable Limited Warranty period, the purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy is for Bike Track, Inc. to, at Bike Track, Inc.’s discretion, either replace or repair the defective or malfunctioning panel(s).

OPERATIONAL GUIDELINES

  • What to Do
    • Do inspect the panels immediately upon receipt of shipment to ensure that they are free of damage incurred during shipment. Report any damage to the carrier that delivered the panels.
    • Do securely connect the panels together prior to use.
    • Do consider using a woven geotextile fabric to act as a protective barrier between the panels and the ground. Geotextile can increase site install speed and make clean up fast and efficient. We recommend a minimum weight of 5 oz/y². A heavier weight may be used for specific applications based on the recommendation from your local supplier.
    • Do use the panels on relatively even ground. Do remove large obstacles (rocks, bushes, etc). Do attempt to remove major undulations (greater than two inches deep) by levelling the ground prior to installing the panels.
    • Do use a protective plate if using a jack on the panels. The plate footprint should be at least double the area of the jack footprint in order to distribute the weight across multiple ribs of the panel.
  • What NOT to DO
    • Do NOT use the panels to bridge gaps.
    • Do NOT use metal tracked equipment on the panels.
    • Do NOT drag equipment blades across the panels.
    • Do NOT continue using the panels if the ground beneath them is compressing, creating an uneven surface and thus air gaps. Cease work, attempt to level the ground, consider using the panels in tire tracks rather than as a single platform.
