Shipping
Preparation
Follow these suggestions when preparing to ship your
workstation:
1. Back up the hard drive files onto PD discs, tape cartridges,
or diskettes. Be sure that the backup media is not exposed
to electrical or magnetic impulses while stored or in transit.
✎
The hard drive locks automatically when the system
power is turned off.
2. Remove and store any program diskettes from the diskette
drives.
3. Insert a blank diskette into the diskette drive to protect the
drive while in transit. Do not use a diskette on which you
have stored or plan to store data.
4. Turn off the workstation and external devices.
5. Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet, then
from the workstation.
6. Disconnect the system components and external devices
from their power sources, then from the workstation.
✎
Ensure that all boards are seated properly and secured in
the board slots before shipping the workstation.
7. Pack the system components and external devices in their
original packing boxes or similar packaging with sufficient
packing material to protect them.
