Receiving and Storage
1.1
Receiving
All possible precautions are taken to protect the equipment against damage or losses during shipment, however
before accepting delivery, check all items against the packing list or Bill of Lading. If there are shortages or evidence
of physical damage, notify Ampcontrol immediately.
Notify Ampcontrol within 7 days (maximum) in case of shortages or discrepancies, according to the packing list. This
action will help ensure a speedy resolution to any perceived problems. Keep a record of all claims and
correspondence. Photographs are recommended.
Where practicable do not remove protective covers prior to installation unless there are indications of damage.
Boxes opened for inspection and inventory should be carefully repacked to ensure protection of the contents or else
the parts should be packaged and stored in a safe place. Examine all packing boxes, wrappings and covers for
items attached to them, especially if the wrappings are to be discarded.

All equipment should be stored indoors protected from the elements in a cool dry area. If storing on the ground,
ensure that the storage area is not an area where water will collect.
