or excessive vibration. Handle the instrument with care to prevent damage.
Note:
Contact your distributor if anything is missing. If you do not have your
distributor information, contact Technical Support (page 116). Damage claims
must be filed with the carrier; the warranty does not cover in-transit damage.
Note:
Make sure to set aside packaging and foam for future transport and storage.
Re-install the stage lock pin and the light cube shipping restraint before moving
or transporting the instrument. Always ensure that the instrument is properly
cushioned and braced to prevent damage.
