RECORD OF SATISFACTORY CONDITION (THE “RECORD”)
After the unit is assembled and/or installed, make a detailed record of its condition. Include
observations about all features: pivot points, welds, frame elements, especially features in contact with
the ground, fasteners (anchor bolts, bolts, nuts, washers, etc.) and casters/wheels. Thoroughly
photograph the unit from multiple angles so that all features are clearly imaged. Photograph all labels
applied to the product. Describe where each label is located. Collate all photographs and writings into a
single file. This file is a record of the product in satisfactory condition. Compare the results of each
inspection to this RECORD to determine if the unit is in satisfactory condition. Do not use the product
unless it is in satisfactory condition
INSPECTIONS AND MAINTENANCE
Compare inspection results to the RECORD. Do not continue to use the product unless every
component is in SATISFACTORY CONDITION. Cosmetic changes, like damaged paint/powder coat
do not constitute changes from satisfactory condition. However, touchup paint should be applied to all
affected areas as soon as damage occurs. Contact TECHNICAL SERVICE to order replacement
parts. Contact information is provided on the cover page of this manual.
Inspect the following at least once per month:
1. Surfaces – Check all surfaces of the product for dirt or other matter, especially fluids. Clean the
surfaces of the stand.
2. Hardware, fasteners – Examine hardware & fasteners (anchor bolts and sleeves, bolts, nuts, pins,
& clips). Replace damaged/worn hardware.
3. Examine the frame for wear, breaks, corrosion/rust, metal fatigue, and other forms of damage (e.g.
impact damage).
4. Overall structure – Examine the whole structure for rusting or metal erosion, rot, thinned regions. In
particular, examine pivot points, and ground-contacting elements. If rusting is purely superficial,
remove the rust/corrosion. Clean the affected area and apply touchup paint. If rusting, rot, or
thinning has weakened the material, contact TECHNICAL SERVICE for advice.

LIMITED WARRANTY
Vestil Manufacturing Corporation (“Vestil”) warrants this product to be free of defects in material and
workmanship during the warranty period. Our warranty obligation is to provide a replacement for a defective,
original part covered by the warranty after we receive a proper request from the Warrantee (you) for warranty
service.
Who may request service?
Only a warrantee may request service. You are a warrantee if you purchased the product from Vestil or
from an authorized distributor AND Vestil has been fully paid.
Definition of “original part”?
An original part is a part used to make the product as shipped to the Warrantee.
What is a “proper request”?
A request for warranty service is proper if Vestil receives: 1) a photocopy of the Customer Invoice that
displays the shipping date; AND 2) a written request for warranty service including your name and phone
number. Send requests by one of the following methods:
US Mail Fax Email
Vestil Manufacturing Corporation [phone] [email protected]

should be delivered. After Vestil receives your request for warranty service, an authorized representative will
