3.1. UNPACKING THE T300/T300M ANALYZER

CAUTION
GENERAL SAFETY HAZARD
To avoid personal injury, always use two persons to lift and carry the T300/T300M.
ATTENTION COULD DAMAGE INSTRUMENT AND VOID WARRANTY
Printed Circuit Assemblies (PCAs) are sensitive to electro-static
discharges too small to be felt by the human nervous system. Failure to
use ESD protection when working with electronic assemblies will void
the instrument warranty. See A Primer on Electro-Static Discharge in
this manual for more information on preventing ESD damage.
CAUTION!
Do not operate this instrument until you’ve removed dust plugs from SAMPLE and
EXHAUST ports on the rear panel!
Note Teledyne API recommends that you store shipping containers/materials
for future use if/when the instrument should be returned to the factory for
repair and/or calibration service. See Warranty section in this manual and
shipping procedures on our Website at http://www.teledyne-api.com
under Customer Support > Return Authorization.
Verify that there is no apparent external shipping damage. If damage has occurred,
please advise the shipper first, then Teledyne API.
