REPAIR SERVICE
Service facilities are available, if they are needed, to repair
your completed kit. (Kits that have been modified, soldered
with paste flux or acid core solder, cannot be accepted for
repair.)
If it is convenient, personally deliver your kit to a Heathkit
Electronic Center. For warranty parts replacement, supply a
copy of the invoice or sales slip.
If you prefer to ship your kit to the factory, attach a letter
containing the following information directly to the unit:
• Your name and address.
• Date of purchase.
• Copies of all correspondence relevant to the service of
the kit.
• A brief description of the difficulty.
• Authorization to return your kit C.O.D. for the service
and shipping charges. (This will reduce the possibility
of delay.)
Check the equipment to see that all screws and parts are
secured. (Do not include any wooden cabinets or color
television picture tubes, as these are easily damaged in
shipment.) Place the equipment in a strong carton with at
least
THREE
INCHES
of
resilient
packing
material
(shredded paper, excelsior, etc.) on all sides. Use additional
packing material where there are protrusions (control sticks,
large knobs, etc.). If the unit weighs over 15 lbs., place this
carton
in another one with
3/4" of
packing material
between the two.
Seal the carton with reinforced gummed tape, tie it with a
strong cord, and mark it "Fragile" on at least two sides.
Remember, the carrier will not accept liability for shipping
damage if the unit is insufficiently packed. Ship by prepaid
express, United Parcel Service, or insured Parcel Post to:
