Inspecting for Damage
Inspect the machine for damage.
Hurco recommends that the machine equipment be inspected for shipping damage before
unloading and placing machine onto foundation.
• Remove all wrapping around machine to inspect the shock sensor.
• Before unloading the machine from the shipping carrier, check to see if the
shock meter sensor is tripped. This sensor is located on the casting in the
rear of the machine. The shock meter sensor is a spring-loaded device that
will dislodge the springs if the machine experiences a shock that exceeds 2g.

• Examine the machine for structural damage.
• Note any shipping damage to the machine on the shipper’s bill of lading. It is
the customer’s responsibility to file a damage claim.
• Photograph any equipment damage for your records.
Any damage that occurs during lifting machine off of shipping
pallet or placing into position is the responsibility of the customer
or the customer’s rigging agent.
If the sensor springs are dislodged, inspect the machine carefully
for damage, including all castings.
Hurco-certified Service personnel can help determine the cost of
repairing any damages that occurred during shipment, or during or
after placement of machine onto its foundation.
