CaUTIOn: If the valve is operated with an electric actuator/gear operator combination, and the valve is position-
seated, set the actuator limit switches to trip prior to engagement of the PT Drive Sleeve/Worm Gear with the
Stop Screws. Damage to the operator could result from the Drive Sleeve/Worm Gear contacting the Stop Screw
under motorized operation.
