Return Procedure

Refer to Sales and Service Offices on page 72 for contact information.

Instrument damage can result from using packaging materials other than the original shipping materials or equivalent. Never use styrene pellets as packaging materials. They do not adequately cushion the instrument, do not prevent it from shifting in the carton, and can cause instrument damage due to ESD.

Please send the following information with the returned instrument:

Type of service required.

Description of the problem and whether it is constant or intermittent.

Name and phone number of technical contact person.

Return address.

Model number of returned instrument.

Full serial number of returned instrument.

List of any accessories returned with instrument

Send copies of any performance data recorded for the instrument.

Pack the instrument in the original shipping materials or the equivalent.

If the original shipping materials are not available, follow these steps to repackage the instrument for shipment:

1. Wrap the instrument in antistatic plastic to reduce the possibility of ESD-caused damage.

2. Obtain a double-walled, corrugated cardboard carton of 159 kg (350 lb) test strength. The carton must be large enough and strong
