Unpacking and Inspection
Every care is taken in the choice of packing material to ensure that your equipment will
reach you in perfect condition.
If the equipment has been subject to excessive handling in transit, the fact will probably
be visible as external damage to the shipping carton.
In the event of damage, the shipping container and cushioning material should be kept for
the carrier’s inspection.
Carefully unpack the equipment and check for external damage to the case, sockets etc. If
the shipping container and packing material are undamaged, they should be retained for
use in subsequent shipments. If damage is found notify the carrier and your sales
representative immediately.
For orders of the model 8508A/01 check that the instrument has the six terminals on the
