    6 inch superjack actuator

    have a 6 inch actuator im going to use.

    question is the sticker on reverse it says to mount it with motor in the downwards position,instructions do not mention anything the cover has not been put on incorrect as it has only 3 fixing screws , there is also no drain holes in it so that does not help either.

    so has the sticker been incorrectly fitted ?

    im beginning to wonder if this is for indoor use on something other than a sat dish .

    as no drain holes at the rear either.

    Stick it motor up and drill a drain hole in the bottom.

    i think that is going to be my best option to be honest, as water is defiantly going to get in through the arm,and motor at the bottom its going to die pretty fast.
