If you discover shipping damage, document the damage (photographically if possible), then immediately no-
tify the shipping carrier (responsible party) and SYNRAD. After unpacking, review the Inventory list in the Intro
section within the operators manual.
If you need a replacement box for packing and/or shipping your laser,
Caution! When re-packing the laser for relocation or shipment, nothing can be on the sides of the laser
at any time as damage will occur. There is only one way the laser fits into the foam! All components must
be stowed under the laser. Re-package the wire harness as shown above. The wire harness &/or ports can
be damaged in shipping if not re-packaged as shown in this guide, the drawings, operation manual, and/or
resources located in our website.

Never allow the tubing to kink, since kinking severely restricts coolant flow. Push tubing completely into the fitting, then pull the tubing to verify that it is locked into place. p250 cooling fittings are designed to accept 12mm polyethylene tubing. If adaption is required, we recommend McMaster-Carr (P/N 51495K416). - Page 13 Install gas purge- Introduce nitrogen or dry filtered air into the laser housing*. *See Assist gas purity and Purge gas specifications in the Technical References section of the p250 Opera- tor’s Manual.
