REPAIR MANIFESTO

We hold these truths to be self-evident If you can't fix it,
you don't own it.

REPAIR IS BETTER THAN RECYCLING

Making our things last longer is both more efficient and more
cost-effective than mining them for raw materials.

REPAIR SAVES YOU MONEY

Fixing things is often free, and usually cheaper than replacing
them. Doing the repair yourself saves you money.

REPAIR TEACHES ENGINEERING

The best way to find out how something works is to take it apart.

REPAIR SAVES THE PLANET

Earth has limited resources. Eventually we will run out. The best
way to be efficient is to reuse what we already have.

REPAIR CONNECTS PEOPLE AND THINGS

REPAIR IS WAR ON ENTROPY

REPAIR IS SUSTAINABLE

WE HAVE THE RIGHT:

TO DEVICES THAT CAN BE OPENED

TO REPAIR DOCUMENTATION FOR EVERYTHING

TO REPAIR THINGS IN THE PRIVACY OF OUR OWN HOMES

TO ERROR CODES & WIRING DIAGRAMS

TO CHOOSE OUR OWN REPAIR TECHNICIAN

TO NON-ROPRIETARY FASTENERS

TO REMOVE 'DO NOT REMOVE' STICKERS

TO REPLACE ANY & ALL CONSUMABLES OURSELVES

TO TROUBLESHOOTING INSTRUCTIONS & FLOWCHARTS

TO AVAILABLE, REASONABLY PRICED SERVICE PARTS
