Rotary Actuator 
Safety Instructions

 

 
 

Caution

 

1.The product is provided for use in manufacturing industries.

 

The product herein described is basically provided for peaceful use in manufacturing industries.

 

If considering using the product in other industries, consult SMC beforehand and exchange specifications 
or a contract if necessary.

 

If anything is unclear, contact your nearest sales branch.

 

 
 

Limited warranty and Disclaimer/Compliance Requirements

 

The  product  used  is  subject  to  the  following  “Limited  warranty  and  Disclaimer”  and  “Compliance

Limited warranty and Disclaimer                                                                           

 

1.The warranty period of the product is 1 year in service or 1.5 years after the product is delivered, 

whichever is first.

2)

   

Also, the product may have specified durability, running distance or replacement parts. Please 
consult your nearest sales branch.

 

 

2. For any failure or damage reported within the warranty period which is clearly our responsibility, 

  a replacement product or necessary parts will be provided.

 

This limited warranty applies only to our product independently, and not to any other damage 

  incurred due to the failure of the product.

 

 

3. Prior to using SMC products, please read and understand the warranty terms and disclaimers   

noted in the specified catalog for the particular products.

 

 
 

2) 

Vacuum pads are excluded from this 1 year warranty.

 

      

A vacuum pad is a consumable part, so it is warranted for a year after it is delivered.

 

Also, even within the warranty period, the wear of a product due to the use of the vacuum 

pad or failure due to the deterioration of rubber material are not covered by the limited 

  warranty.

 

 
 

Compliance Requirements

 

1.  The use of SMC products with production equipment for the manufacture of weapons of mass 

destruction (WMD) or any other weapon is strictly prohibited. 

2.  The exports of SMC products or technology from one country to another are governed by the 

relevant security laws and regulations of the countries involved in the transaction. Prior to the 
shipment of a SMC product to another country, assure that all local rules governing that export 
are known and followed.
