Tool Pick Up Instructions for After Sales Service

How to guarantee the safety of all and optimize my repair pick-up

Each week, over 500 tools are picked-up and sent to our repair center. Tools are received, sorted, repaired and sent back in record time to meet the requirements of your jobsites.

Each step from the pick-up to the repair center is carried out by dedicated employees who handle and work on the various machines. These people are exposed to risks that can be avoided in advance and for which we can all take action.
