CHANGE OF USE/EXPECTED HOURS

4.1 Service Agreements expire at the earlier of the time elapsed or total contracted machine hours being reached, as detailed on the Service Agreement contract form for the specific machine. If there is a change of use that results in the machine exceeding, or is expected to exceed, its contracted hours under the service contract in any 12 month period by more than 10%, we shall advise you as to the change in service payments to reflect the increased service costs of the increased machine utilisation. Such increase will not increase the total service contract cost for the total contracted hours – the increase will merely represent an acceleration of the payments over a shorter period of time to mirror the increased machine utilisation.

4.2 If a change in use results in the machine exceeding, or is expected to exceed, its expected hours under the service contract and you wish to maintain the period of contract, you may increase the expected hours under the contract by notifying Us of the new expected hours. We will advise You of the increase in cost to cover the increased hours, which You may choose to accept or decline.

4.3 Should the machine reach the contracted hours in a shorter timeframe than expected and no increase in payment has been applied under 4.1, You will remain liable to pay the balance of payments for the remainder of the contract term to reflect servicing undertaken in advance of payments being received.

4.4 If you choose to terminate the agreement before the end of the Service Agreement, we must be contacted in writing and within six months of the required termination date. On receiving this request to terminate the agreement, we are entitled to collect any outstanding arrears, where costs have not been covered within the agreement paid to date.
