These 
relays, 
when 
not  included 
as 
a 
part 
of 
a  control  panel,  l'rill 
be 
shipped 
·in 
cartons  designed 
to 
protect 
them 
against 
damage. 
Immediately 
upon 
receipt 
of 
a 
relay, 
examine 
it 
for 
any 
damage 
sustained 
·in 
transit. 
If 
injury 
or 
damage 
resulting 
from 
rough 
handling 
is 
evident, 
file 
a 
damage 
claim 
at 
once 
with  the 
transportation 
company 
and 
promptly  notify  the 
nearest 
General  Electr'ic 
Apparatus  Sales  Office. 
Reasonable  care  should 
be 
exercised  in  unpacking  the 
relay 
in  order 
that 
none 
of 
the 
parts 
are 
injured 
or 
the  adjustments  disturbed. 
If 
the  relays  are  not  to 
be 
installed 
immediately,  they  should 
be 
stored  in 
their 
original 
cartons  in  a  place 
that 
is 
free 
from 
moisture,  dust 
and 
metallic 
chips.  Foreign  matter 
collected 
on 
the 
outside 
may 
find 
its 
way 
inside 
when 
the  cover 
is 
removed 
and 
cause  trouble  in  the  operation  of 
the 
relay. 
ACCEPTAN_c:E
