Repacking for Shipment
If this instrument is to be shipped long distances, we recommend that the
instrument be repackaged the same as when it arrived. The cartons and packag-
ing material in which your instrument was shipped should be saved and used for
this purpose.
If the instrument is shipped to a Tektronix Service Center for service or repair,
attach a tag to the instrument showing the following information:
Owner of the instrument (with address)
Name of a person at your firm to contact
Instrument type
Instrument serial number
Description of the service required
If the original packaging is unfit for use or not available, package the instrument
as follows:
1. Obtain a corrugated cardboard shipping carton with a 375 pound test strength
that has inside dimensions at least six inches greater than the instrument
dimensions.
2. Surround the instrument with polyethylene sheeting to protect the finish.
3. Cushion the instrument on all sides by tightly packing dunnage or urethane
foam between the carton and the instrument, allowing three inches on all
sides.
4. Seal the carton with shipping tape or with an industrial stapler.
5. Write the address of the Tektronix Service Center and your return address on
the carton in one or more prominent locations.
