Unpacking
Carefully remove the contents of the shipping carton and check each item
on the packing slip before destroying the packing materials. Any damage
must be reported to the shipping company. If you do not receive all of the
parts, contact Ametek at 800-635-0289 (US and Canada) or 248-435-0700
(International).
Most probes are shipped in a Tube. To remove the metal end cap, use a large,
flat blade screw driver or a metal rod and tap on the inner edge of the cap until
it pivots. Grab the cap and pull it out. Use caution as the edge of the metal
cap may be sharp.
If you have an RMA warranty claim, pack the
probe in a shipping tube or with stiff reinforcement
to prevent the probe from being bent in transit.
