high head straight centrifugal pump, Models covered in this manual, are warranted
by Dayton Electric Mfg. Co. (Dayton) to the original user against defects in workmanship or materials under normal use for 1
year after date of purchase. Any part which is determined to be defective in material or workmanship and returned to an
authorized service location, as Dayton designates, shipping cost prepaid, will be, as the exclusive remedy, repaired or replaced
at Dayton’s option. For limited warranty claim procedures, see PROMPT DISPOSITION below. This limited warranty gives
purchasers specific legal rights which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
To the extent allowable under applicable law, Dayton’s liability for consequential and incidental
damages is expressly disclaimed. Dayton’s liability in all events is limited to, and shall not exceed, the purchase price paid.
WARRANTY DISCLAIMER.
Dayton has made a diligent effort to provide product information and illustrate the products in
this literature accurately; however, such information and illustrations are for the sole purpose of identification, and do not
express or imply a warranty that the products are MERCHANTABLE, or FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, or that the products
will necessarily conform to the illustrations or descriptions. Except as provided below, no warranty or affirmation of fact,
expressed or implied, other than as stated in the “LIMITED WARRANTY” above is made or authorized by Dayton.
PRODUCT SUITABILITY.
Many jurisdictions have codes and regulations governing sales, construction, installation, and/or use
of products for certain purposes, which may vary from those in neighboring areas. While Dayton attempts to assure that its
products comply with such codes, it cannot guarantee compliance, and cannot be responsible for how the product is installed
or used. Before purchase and use of a product, review the product applications, and all applicable national and local codes
and regulations, and be sure that the product, installation, and use will comply with them.
Certain aspects of disclaimers are not applicable to consumer products; e.g., (a) some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion
or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you; (b) also, some
jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, consequently the above limitation may not apply
to you; and (c) by law, during the period of this Limited Warranty, any implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a
particular purpose applicable to consumer products purchased by consumers, may not be excluded or otherwise disclaimed.
PROMPT DISPOSITION.
Dayton will make a good faith effort for prompt correction or other adjustment with respect to any
product which proves to be defective within warranty. For any product believed to be defective within limited warranty, first
write or call dealer from whom product was purchased. Dealer will give additional directions. If unable to resolve
satisfactorily, write to Dayton at address below, giving dealer’s name, address, date and number of dealer’s invoice, and
describing the nature of the defect. Title and risk of loss pass to buyer on delivery to common carrier. If product was damaged
in transit to you, file claim with carrier.
