(LEGAL) ACTION PERTAINING TO THE EQUIPMENT Explanation: It sounds like the Article is about ensuring the lessor doesn't risk any financial loss or is not held responsible for any legal action arising from equipment being used on the leased premises. The sense of "fait" on this reading is a "fact", deed or state of affairs imputable to the "materiel" that forms the grounds of the legal action. It's a reasonably common expression and, assuming this interpretation fits the content of the article, I wouldn't have thought it was a typo. |

Claims or liabilities arising from the equipment Explanation: This would seem to be a standard hold harmless clause. I'd use "claims or liabilities" because this is the standard cover-all expression in English. Some examples: "Buyer/User agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller from any and all claims or liabilities caused by or arising from the equipment as sold and/or quoted ..." surplus.msu.edu/public/sealed_bids/BidProcedures.htm "The Customer shall make his own insurance arrangements and assume all responsibility for any liability arising from the Equipment while the Equipment is in ..." www.pumperdump.com/docs/HireAgreementConditions.doc "Any liability or claims arising from the equipment or facilities will be the responsibility of the applicant. You will be required to sign a contract with ..." teleworkva.redmon.com/incentives/process.aspx |
