4.1 Unpacking and Moving
Damaged Packaging, Defective on Arrival
Inspect the shipping container for signs of external damage and, after
unpacking, inspect the detector for any signs of mechanical damage that
might have occurred during shipment.
If you suspect that the detector may have been damaged during
shipment, immediately notify the incoming carrier and Thermo Fisher
Scientific about the damage. Shipping insurance will compensate for the
damage only if reported immediately.
Unpacking the Detector
CAUTION—Heavy Load, Bulky Device
The detector is too heavy or bulky for one person alone to handle safely.
To avoid personal injury or damage to the detector, observe the
following guidelines:
•
Physical handling of the detector, including lifting or moving,
requires a team effort of two persons.
• A team effort is in particular required when lifting the detector into
the system stack or when removing it.
•
Use the carrying handles that were shipped with the detector to
move or transport the detector. Never move or lift the detector by
the front doors. This will damage the doors or the detector.
