3.0 UNPACKING
Carefully inspect the exterior of the packing box. Any visible damage should immediately
be reported to the carrier. Remove all packing documents from the exterior of the box and
file in your records. Remove the top of the shipping box, the foam packaging material, and
the Geno/Grinder accessories (power cord, titer plates, etc.). Lift the sleeve of the packing
box to remove from the base of the box. Grasp the Geno/Grinder on both sides, using
proper lifting techniques, and place it on a stable bench top. (This is a 2-person job.) Make
sure that there is adequate clearance on the sides to reach the power switch at the rear of
the unit and on top when the cover is fully open. Visually check the unit to ensure that no
damage occurred during shipping. Inspect the accessories and compare with the Packing
List to ensure that no parts are missing.
Follow a logical sequence of steps as you inspect the unit (see Figures 1 and 2).
1. Inspect the electrical input module for any visible damage.
2. Inspect the cabinet and top cover for any visible damage.
3. Ensure that the switches and control knobs are intact.
4. Open the cover and inspect the interior of the unit.
5. Check the clamp assembly (packed separately). Ensure that it is undamaged.
6. Inspect the accessories and compare with the packing list. Did you receive what you
had ordered?
If everything appears to be in proper order, store the packaging materials in case there is a
need to return the unit for service or repair.
