    Default B1 Visas and Service Contracts Incident to Sale

    I have been reading a fair bit through the internet, and seem to run into this blurb about B-1 Visas:

    After-Sales Service - Installers, repair and maintenance personnel, and supervisors, possessing specialized knowledge essential to a seller's contractual obligation, performing services or training workers to perform services, pursuant to a warranty or other service contract incidental to the sale of commercial or industrial equipment or machinery, including computer software, purchased from an enterprise located outside the territory of the Party into which temporary entry is sought, during the life of the warranty or service agreement.

    What exactly does "other service contract incidental to the sale" mean?

    I am asking this question because if a specialty piece of machinery is sold into the US from Canada, what is the US company to do after the warranty period on the machine expires?

    Thanks
    Dom

    A service contract is a contract to provide services.

    "Incident to sale" means, in essense, "something that occurs casually in connection with the sale".
