Contract documents

The documents forming the contract as a whole are: the rental quotation, duly signed by a person authorised to accept it, the general terms and conditions, the invoice, the transport document and the receipt for returning the equipment to Yhino S.L. at the end of the rental contract.

However and in any case, the rental offer, signed for acceptance by the Contracting Party, shall prevail over all other documents.
Yhino S.L.’s rental offer is effective for 10 days from the date thereof, subject to the availability of materials ready for rental.
Any changes to the contract shall be valid and effective only if they result from a written document, signed by both parties.
The agreement thus concluded between Yhino S.L. and the Contractor is hereinafter referred to as the “contract”.

Use of rented equipment

The Contractor undertakes to ensure the maintenance of the leased equipment and accessories as well as their upkeep during the entire period of the lease and undertakes, if necessary and at his own cost and care, to obtain the permits from the competent authorities and/or authorisations for the parking and/or operation of the leased asset.

The Contractor is expressly forbidden to put the equipment into operation if it is defective or damaged and, in any case, in a state that constitutes a danger; therefore, if the Contracting Party or one of its employees, collaborators or agents uses it in this condition, the Contractor shall be solely liable for any damage, loss or incident resulting from its action.

The Contractor is expressly forbidden to sublet the rented equipment or to grant it to third parties on loan, under penalty of termination of the contract; furthermore, the Contractor is also expressly forbidden to move it from the place of use, as agreed with Yhino S.L., under penalty of termination of the contract by law.

– the rental fee for all that the equipment(s) has (have) remained unused due to such faults or damage and for the entire period necessary for the repairs
– the rental fee for the amount requested in lieu of the equipment damaged by the Contractor, under the same conditions already set out in the rental offer. However, Yhino S.L. shall not be required to accept the replacement request.

In the case of a load requiring the use of cooling units at a temperature below + 4°C, the Contractor is obliged to constantly check the level of the heat-conducting fluids used (such as water with glycol); he shall be liable for any damage caused by frost on the leased machinery and any other damage resulting from the use, for example, of refilling those heat-conducting fluids that have not received the express consent of Yhino S.L..
