Save and reuse the package in which your instrument was shipped. If the original packaging is unfit for use or not available, repackage the instrument as follows:

Surround the instrument with polyethylene sheeting to protect the instrument finish . Obtain α carton of corrugated cardboard of the correct carton strength having inside dimensions of no less than six inches more than the instrument dimensions. Cushion t he instrument by tightly packing three inches of dunnage or urethane foam between carton and instrument on all sides. Seal the carton with shipping tape or an in- dustrial stapler.

The carton test strength for this instrument is 350 pounds per square inch.

WA RN I N G

During rackmount installation, interchanging t left and right slίde-out track assemblies defeats the extension stop (safety latch) feature of the tracks . Equipment could, when extended, come out of the slides and fall from the rack, possίbly causing persoηαl injury and equipment damage.

When mounting the supplίed slide-out tracks, inspect both assemblies to find the LH (left hand) and RH (nght hand) designations to determine correct placement. Install the LH assembly to your left side as you face the front of the rack and install the RH assembly to your right sίde. Refer to the rackmountiηg ίnsinrctions in this manual for complete information.
