  1. 4.3  Partial deliveries and early deliveries are permitted. Each partial delivery represents a separate delivery within the meaning of these provisions. Failure to call for partial deliveries on time eliminates the seller's performance obligation without the buyer being entitled to any claims. The same applies if the buyer fails to cooperate in any other way. 

  2. 4.4  The delivery period is extended in the event of unforeseen, extraordinary events for which we are not responsible, in particular in the case of strikes, lockouts, operational disruptions, even if such events occur during an already existing delay.

to assert the affected delivery value. The right of the buyer to withdraw from the contract after the unsuccessful expiry of a period of grace remains unaffected.

Defects occurring later must be reported in writing within the same period, calculated from their discovery. 

7.3 In the event of a justified, proper notification of defects, the seller provides a guarantee by repairing the defect or delivering a replacement part.

Likewise, the seller's liability for claims arising from positive breach of contract, breach of pre-contractual obligations or tortious acts is excluded. The above limitations and exclusions of liability do not apply to damage caused intentionally or through gross negligence by the seller or his vicarious agents. Liability for guaranteed properties also remains unaffected.
