Risk of damage during transportation and shipment
Insufficient protection against mechanical and electrostatic effects during
transportation and shipment can damage the instrument.
●
Always make sure that sufficient mechanical and electrostatic protection
is provided.
●
When shipping an instrument, the original packaging should be used. If
you do not have the original packaging, use sufficient padding to pre-
vent the instrument from moving around inside the box. Pack the instru-
ment in antistatic wrap to protect it from electrostatic charging.
●
Secure the instrument to prevent any movement and other mechanical
effects during transportation.
Packing material
Retain the original packing material. If the instrument needs to be transpor-
ted or shipped at a later date, you can use the material to protect the control
