a couple of notes....
Sears will try to repair your broken ratchet first, and/or hand you a rebuilt used one. Lately, I've heard that just being handed a brand new one won't work out unless you cause a BIG STINK in front of everyone.
Suggestion; ask them to repair the one you brought in. Most Sears stores carry replacement parts; and will repair the ratchet while you wait.
Also, the Craftsman warranty
does not cover commercial users. Personal use... OK; business use... not-OK.
Years ago I went to Sears on lunck break to return two broken sockets. The register dude saw the company name on my shirt and wanted to know who the sockets belonged to. I said they were mine -personal- but he didn't believe me at the start. It took some convincing... but I finally got them replaced.
