1-4 Warranty
Seller warrants its products to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal
and proper use in accordance with instruction of seller for a period of one year from the date of
shipment to buyer. Seller's liability under such warranty or in connection with any other claim
relating to the products shall be limited to the repair, or at seller’s option, the replacement or
refund of the purchase price, of any products or parts or components thereof which are returned
to seller freight prepaid and which are defective in material or workmanship. Products or parts or

Moss Warranty-Federal Trade Commission Improvement Act, 15 U. S. C. Sections 2301-12,
which are purchased by buyer for purposes other than resale. If buyer is not intending to resell the

EXPRESSLY STATED ABOVE, SELLER MAKES NO WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,
WHETHER OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR

1-5 Precautions of Use and Installation
1. Travel is limited using the limit switches provided. It is imperative that the limit switches be set
within the designed limits of the Linear Actuator. Exceeding the design limits can cause
damage to the internal linear actuator mechanism. Follow the procedure in Sections 1-7 and 1-
8 of this manual.
2. In most applications, factory or manufacturer-assisted installation is not required. However, it is
necessary that appropriate, qualified personnel perform the installation of Joyce/Dayton
products.
3. Joyce/Dayton Linear Actuators are not rated for shock-loading or extreme vibration. It is the
responsibility of the user to ensure these conditions are not imposed on the actuator.
4. In the event that service or maintenance is required, the load must be secured or removed
before any work can begin.
