from the date of installation or use by the owner, provided that this period 
shall not exceed two (2) years from the date of shipment.  This warranty 
is not transferable.  No other person or firm is authorized to assume or 
assign for FallTech any other warranty in connection with the sale or use 
of this product. 
 
     Furthermore, this warranty is void if any product is changed or altered
