Thanks in advance.

Do not know why but this is the first date this post has appeared my PC?
Until lat 2012 servo had two small dot stickers attached:
The green leaf means RoHS compliant = the product is environmentally friendly.
The dots with the numbers on them are the dates of manufacture. e.g.
07 08 were made August 2007 and so 06 06 would have been made June 2006. (Hitec's dates are always year then month.)
Trash can with X thru = heavy metals, do not dispose in garbage.
More recently the system has been changed and I do not wish to load misinformation.
