Repackaging for Shipment
Your instrument was originally shipped by Tektronix in a carton with packaging
components designed to protect the instrument from damage during shipment. If
you need to ship the instrument to another location, it is strongly recommended
that you use the original shipping carton and packaging components to provide
adequate protection during shipment.
CAUTION.
To prevent the loss of your instrument’s warranties, Tektronix strongly
recommends that you use your original shipping carton (one that is in good
condition) when you ship the instrument to another location or when you return
the instrument to a Tektronix service center for repair.
Tektronix cannot honor the instrument’s warranties if the instrument arrives at
the service center damaged and it was not shipped in its original carton or in a
replacement carton (and its supporting packaging material) purchased from
Tektronix. If you lose your original packaging material, contact your Tektronix
representative to obtain replacement packaging.
When preparing to ship your instrument to another location, it is important to
inspect your existing packaging materials for condition, missing components and
vintage.
H
If the condition of your existing packaging materials is poor, or if you are
missing some of the components, it is strongly recommended that you order
a new packaging kit. The new packaging kit will accommodate both the
portable and the rackmount versions of the instrument cabinet.
If your existing packaging materials are in good condition, compare them
against Figures B--1 and B--2 to determine which packaging procedure to
use. Use the procedure associated with your existing packaging materials.
H
The configuration (vintage) of the packaging materials is important to note.
Replacement components for the old-design packaging materials are no
longer available. Also, the components of the new and old designs are not
interchangeable. If your packaging materials are of the old design, and
require any replacement components, you must order a new packaging kit.
If your instrument was originally shipped in the older design packaging and
you have converted the cabinet from portable to rackmount configuration,
use the new design packaging which contained the rackmount conversion kit,
or order a new design shipping kit.
