UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
Signia-IDT, Inc. ships the WJ-8711A and its accessories in a cardboard shipping container,
designed specifically for its dimensions and weight. After unpacking the equipment, retain the shipping
container and packing material until the equipment has been thoroughly inspected and it is ensured that
reshipment is not necessary. Perform the following initial inspection:
1. Carefully inspect the outside of the shipping container for discoloring, stains,
charring, or other signs of exposure to excessive heat, moisture, or liquid
chemicals. Check for any signs of excessive shock or careless handling.
2. Remove all equipment and accessories from the shipping container. If any
items are missing, contact the factory or your Signia-IDT, Inc. representative.
3. Remove and retain the white 5x6 inch PRODUCT DISCREPANCY REPORT
card. This card should be used if reshipment of the equipment is required. It
also contains important warranty adjustment information.
4. Carefully inspect the equipment for dents, scratches, damaged or loose
pushbuttons or knobs, or any other signs of physical abuse or careless
handling during shipment.
If damage is found, forward an immediate request to the delivering carrier to perform an
inspection and prepare a concealed-damage report. Do not destroy any packing material until it has been
examined by an agent of the carrier. Concurrently, report the nature and extent of damage to Signia-IDT, Inc.,
giving equipment serial numbers, so that necessary action can be taken. Under U.S. shipping regulations,
claims for damage must be collected by the consignee; do not return the equipment to Signia-IDT, Inc. until a
claim for damages has been established.

RACK MOUNTING
The WJ-8711A Digital HF Receiver is designed so it can be mounted in a standard 19-inch
equipment rack. The unit is 5.25 inches high and extends approximately 16 inches into the equipment rack
(
Foldout FO-1
). The use of Jonathan Type 110QD-16-2 chassis slides are recommended for racking
mounting the WJ-8711A.
The Type 110QD-16-2 chassis slides accommodate the WJ-8711A's 17-inch wide chassis into
a standard 19-inch wide equipment rack. Supporting loads up to 120 pounds, these slides mount easily into
bracketed equipment racks using machined bar nuts.
Figure 2-1 illustrates installation of the chassis slides to
an equipment rack, with special attention given to bracket hole spacing.
