Spicer Drive Axles Application Guidelines - Manual (Page 5)

AXAG-0200 June 2009 5
Important Information about These Guidelines
Purpose
The purpose of these Drive Application Guidelines is to provide original equipment manufacturer (OEM) build-
ers of medium and heavy duty trucks with information about which Spicer ® drive products are approved by
Dana Holding Corporation's Commercial Vehicle Products (Dana CVP) for use in common vocational applica-
tions in the USA and Canada.
Use of Guidelines
These Guidelines apply to on, on-off and off highway axle applications and vocations in the USA and Canada.
Vehicle applications that meet the specified vocation definitions and specified axle criteria are approved by Dana
CVP for use within the applicable General Requirements and Recommendations without formal review by Dana
CVP. Applications outside the specified vocations, duty cycles, ratings and all off-road applications must be
reviewed and approved on an individual basis by the Dana CVP Application Engineering Department. This
review requirement also applies to the approval of drive axles with available options.
Drive Warranties
Dana CVP's warranties for drive axles are set out in the Spicer Warranty Guide (TCWY0900) . Applica-
tions and installations must either meet the requirements of these Guidelines or be approved by the Dana CVP
Applications Engineering Department. Failure to obtain applications approval or the use of Spicer ® axles or their
components in non-approved applications will void the Dana CVP warranty coverage. Modification of the vehi-
cle or drive axle configuration, changes in the vocational use, or service outside the limits of these Guidelines
will void the Dana CVP warranty coverage.
