1. Definitions
1.1. Man-Lift Kft. (hereinafter referred to as the Lessor) is the owner of the rented machines and their accessories (hereinafter referred to as the machine), or possesses contracts that enable the rental of the machine. The Renter is the company or person, and their representative, who takes possession of the machine for a specified period for work purposes in exchange for a rental fee. This contract also applies to the accessories of the rented machine (machine documentation, machine key, other machine accessories, such as the upper controller, winch, etc.).
1.2. The rental of the machine and the provision of services may also include mediated services, for which the Lessor has the right to involve a subcontractor.
2. Conclusion, Duration, and Settlement of the Rental Agreement
2.1. The Rental Agreement is concluded upon the Renter’s written Order and the Lessor’s written Confirmation, and is valid in conjunction with these General Rental Terms and Conditions. The Parties accept Orders and Confirmations sent via email as written contracts, with the Confirmation containing the valid data.
2.2. The rental period begins on the day specified in the Confirmation. The Confirmation also specifies the rental days to be invoiced (7, 6, or 5 days per week). In the case of transport arranged by the Lessor, the last day of the rental period is the last day of actual rental use, or if the Renter’s notification of the end of the rental occurs thereafter, then it is the day of notification. If the transporter can only pick up the machine later due to reasons attributable to the Renter, then the last day of the rental period is the day the machine is returned (see point 6.8). For transport arranged by the Renter, the first day of the rental period is the day the machine is dispatched, and the last day is the day the machine is delivered to our premises. The Renter MUST NOTIFY the end of the rental IN ALL CASES by email or SMS no later than the day before the rental ends. The rental period and payment obligation shall not be reduced if the machine cannot be used due to bad weather or other reasons not caused by the Lessor.
2.3. The rental fee charged for the rental period – unless the parties agree otherwise in the Rental Agreement – includes a maximum of 10 hours of daily machine usage (the duration between the first power-on and the last power-off). Based on the data from the GPS-based tracking units in the machines, for daily work exceeding this limit, an additional 1 rental day will be charged for that specific day, and for weekend and public holiday machine usage deviating from the Rental Agreement, an additional 1-1 rental day will also be invoiced for these days.
2.4. The daily rental fee applies to the rental duration specified in the Rental Agreement. If the actual rental period is shorter than the agreed duration, the Lessor is entitled to retroactively adjust the daily rental fee.
2.5. The Lessor fixes the rental fee for a maximum period of 6 months from the start of the contract. The Lessor is entitled to review the rental fee every 6 months within the contract period.
2.6. For machines equipped with a diesel engine, the machines will be handed over with a full fuel tank and, where applicable, a full AdBlue tank.
3. Delivery, other Costs
The delivery of the rented machines to the Renter – arranged by the Lessor – will take place on the day specified in the Confirmation, to the location designated by the Renter. The Renter is obliged to provide the name and phone number of the on-site contact person authorized to receive the machine upon delivery and hand it over at the end of the rental period. If the Lessor does not carry out the transport, it is always at the Renter’s risk. The Renter shall always confirm the receipt of the machine by signing a delivery note, which also serves as a certificate of performance. If the Renter’s representative is not present during the delivery or return of the machine, the driver performing the transport shall sign the handover copy of the delivery note, which the Lessor and Renter accept as valid.
In addition to the rental fee, for transport arranged by the Lessor, the Renter shall bear the cost of delivering and returning the machine to and from the work site, as well as the cost of any missing fuel from the fuel tank and AdBlue tank upon return for diesel-powered machines.
4. Payment Terms, Invoicing
The frequency and method of payment for the rental fee, delivery fee, and fuel costs (hereinafter referred to as rental costs) shall be specified by the parties in the Confirmation. The Lessor is entitled to require a deposit or advance payment from the Renter. The Lessor shall invoice the rental costs no later than the end of each calendar month, or at the end of the rental period. Payments must be made by the Renter according to the financial document issued by the Lessor, within the specified payment deadline. If the Renter falls into arrears with payment for more than 5 calendar days, or violates any of the obligations set forth in point 6, then the Lessor, if the Renter fails to fulfill their obligations within 5 calendar days after a warning, is entitled to:
- demand all outstanding rental costs, and

The Renter is responsible for any damage caused to third parties during the use of the machine.

The costs of failed site visits due to the Renter’s fault will be invoiced by the Lessor to the Renter, and the Renter shall also pay the rental fee for those days when the use of the machine was prohibited due to an expired machine inspection (e.g., by the work site’s occupational safety specialist).

Upon return, after the machine has been delivered to the Lessor, the Lessor will draw up a Return Protocol, documenting the machine’s condition (operability, cleanliness, presence of accessories, fuel deficiency, machine damage, etc.). The presence of a handover person from the Renter is advisable, however, the parties consider the protocol valid even without the Renter’s signature. The cost of rectifying / replacing deficiencies noted in the protocol (machine cleaning, fuel deficiency, etc.) will be invoiced to the Renter.
