5. Check the instrument for any damage. If there is damage, immediately contact the
carrier who delivered the instrument. Make sure not to discard the box and packing
material.
Packing material
Retain the original packing material. If the instrument needs to be transported or ship-
ped at a later date, you can use the material to protect the control elements and con-
nectors.
2.2 Positioning the instrument
The instrument is designed for use under laboratory conditions. It can be used in
standalone operation on a bench top or can be installed in a rack.
Risk of injury and instrument damage if stacking instruments
A stack of instruments may tilt over and cause injury and material damage because the
instrument's top surface area is too small.
Never stack instruments on top of each other. If you need to stack instruments, install
them in a rack.
2.2.1 Standalone operation
For standalone operation, place the instrument on a horizontal bench with even, flat
surface. The instrument can be used in horizontal position, or with the support feet on
the bottom extended.
