CAUTION
Solving Problems and Updating Your System
Returning the System for Service
Do This
4 Wrap the system in antistatic plastic to reduce
the possibility of damage caused by
electrostatic discharge.
5 Seal the carton with strong nylon adhesive
tape and mark it "FRAGILE, HANDLE WITH
CARE".
6 Retain copies of all shipping papers.
•
Cover electrical connectors to protect sensitive components from
electrostatic damage.
•
Instrument damage can result from using packaging materials other than
the original materials. Never use styrene pellets as packaging material.
They do not adequately cushion the system or prevent it from shifting in
the carton. They may also cause system damage by generating static
electricity.

Additional Information
• For systems weighing less than 54 kg
(120 lbs), use a double-walled, corrugated
cardboard carton of 159 kg (350 lbs) test
strength.
• The carton must be large enough to allow 3 to
4 inches on all sides of the system for packing
material, and strong enough to accommodate
the weight of the system.
• Surround the equipment with 3 to 4 inches of
packing material, to protect the system and
prevent it from moving in the carton. If packing
foam is not available, the best alternative is
S.D-240 Air Cap™ from Sealed Air
Corporation (Commerce, California 90001).
Air Cap looks like a plastic sheet filled with air
bubbles. Use the pink (antistatic) Air Cap to
reduce static electrical damage. Wrapping the
system several times in this material will
protect the system and prevent it from moving
in the carton.
