A valid customer-issued purchase order is required to initiate any quoted work. - Price Adjustments Due to Material Costs
Quoted prices are based on material and labor costs in effect at the time of proposal issuance.

Labor costs are based on project completion within the same calendar year as the proposal, unless otherwise agreed to in writing. - Service Execution and Site Access
All service work shall be conducted by non-union personnel of Prolift Crane & Hoist Inc. during regular business hours (Monday to Friday, 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM), with free and unobstructed access to the work area and equipment.
Premium rates, including overtime and double-time charges, may apply for work beyond regular hours and will be invoiced only with the customer’s prior written approval.
After eight (8) consecutive hours of work in a single day, premium labor rates shall apply. - Additional Parts and Labor
During equipment teardown or service, unforeseen issues may arise requiring additional parts and labor. Prolift will issue a revised quote for approval prior to proceeding with such repairs. - Progress Billing
Prolift Crane & Hoist Inc. reserves the right to issue progress invoices for any work delayed by the customer for more than thirty (30) days, unless a written exemption is granted by a senior Prolift representative. - Delays and Force Majeure
Prolift shall not be held liable for any delays caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to supply chain disruptions, labor disputes, inclement weather, or regulatory approvals. Any such delays may result in additional costs, which shall be borne by the customer. - Retention of Title; Security Interest; Right of Recovery
Notwithstanding delivery, installation, commissioning, acceptance or possession of any crane, hoist, component, machinery or other equipment supplied by Prolift Crane & Hoist Inc. (collectively, the “Equipment”), all legal and beneficial title to the Equipment shall remain exclusively with Prolift Crane & Hoist Inc. and shall not pass to the Customer until Prolift Crane & Hoist Inc. has received, in cleared funds, payment in full of all invoices and other amounts owing in connection with the Equipment, including applicable taxes, interest and reasonable enforcement and recovery costs. If any amount remains unpaid after its due date—other than an amount subject to a bona fide dispute communicated to Prolift Crane & Hoist Inc. in writing before the due date, together with reasonable supporting particulars—the Customer shall be deemed in default. Upon default, Prolift Crane & Hoist Inc. may, subject to applicable law and without limiting any other available remedy, require the Customer to immediately cease using the Equipment, make the Equipment available for recovery and provide Prolift Crane & Hoist Inc. and its authorized representatives with reasonable access to recover and repossess the Equipment. The Customer hereby grants Prolift Crane & Hoist Inc. a purchase-money security interest in the Equipment and its proceeds and authorizes Prolift Crane & Hoist Inc. to register any financing statement or other document considered necessary to protect or perfect that interest under the Personal Property Security Act (Ontario). Risk of loss or damage to the Equipment shall pass to the Customer upon delivery, notwithstanding that title remains with Prolift Crane & Hoist Inc. - Permits and Drawings
The customer shall be solely responsible for obtaining all necessary permits and related permit applications, unless otherwise agreed upon in writing. - Pre-Start Health & Safety Reviews (PSHRs)
PSHRs are not included in the quoted prices unless explicitly stated in writing on the applicable quotation, order, or contract. - Limitation of Liability
Prolift Crane & Hoist Inc. shall not be liable to the purchaser, end-user, or any third party for any indirect, incidental, special, liquidated, or consequential damages, including but not limited to loss of use, loss of profits, or business interruption, arising from or relating to the goods or services provided. - Warranty Terms
a. Warranty coverage for newly supplied parts is limited to the terms provided by the original equipment manufacturer or supplier.
b. Prolift’s warranty includes labor but excludes any rental equipment required for servicing or installation. - Acceptance of Terms
By accepting this quotation or placing an order, the customer agrees to be bound exclusively by the terms and conditions stated herein and in any attached documentation or instructions issued by Prolift Crane & Hoist Inc.
