Receiving Inspection
After removing your MINUTEMAN UPS from its carton, it should be inspected for
damage that may have occurred in shipping. Immediately notify the carrier and
place of purchase if any damage is found. Warranty claims for damage caused by
the carrier will not be honored. The packing materials that your UPS was shipped in
are carefully designed to minimize any shipping damage. In the unlikely case that the
UPS needs to be returned to MINUTEMAN, please use the original packing material.
Since MINUTEMAN is not responsible for shipping damage incurred when the
system is returned, the original packing material is inexpensive insurance. PLEASE
SAVE THE PACKING MATERIALS!
NOTE: These UPSs are shipped with the batteries disconnected. The batteries
must be connected before putting these UPSs into service. Refer to Chapter 3 for
Connecting the Batteries.
