    Periodic inspection of billets and stirrup leathers is recommended and replacement should be performed

    Spiritnova declines liability for failures where recommended replacement was not carried out.
  10. Correct saddle positioning
    The Spiritnova Prima saddle must be positioned correctly on the horse’s back behind the shoulder blade, in accordance with the technical and graphical instructions provided by Spiritnova on the website www.spiritnova.it within the product page.
    Correct positioning is essential to ensure the proper functioning of the dynamic saddle system and to avoid interference with the horse’s anatomy.
    Incorrect positioning of the saddle, for example placing it too far forward over the shoulder blade, may cause the steel structure of the saddle to come into contact with the horse’s withers, potentially resulting in injury or damage.
    Spiritnova declines any responsibility for damages or consequences arising from incorrect positioning that does not follow the provided instructions.
    If there are any doubts regarding the correct positioning of the saddle or its adaptation to the horse, the user is encouraged to contact Spiritnova before use in order to evaluate together the most suitable solution, for example by using a saddle pad with a different thickness or other configuration adjustments.
    The user remains responsible for verifying the correct positioning of the saddle before each use.
  11. Natural materials
    Leather is naturally selected and may show marks or slight tone differences. Regular cleaning and
    conditioning are recommended.
  12. Intellectual property
    Customers may not modify products or remove trademarks, logos, serial numbers or identifying marks.
    All intellectual property rights remain with Spiritnova.
  13. Force majeure

    war).

    improper use. Liability for intent or gross negligence remains unaffected where required by law.
