Before unpacking the equipment, check the shipping carton for any visible
damage. If you see any, be sure to follow the procedures described below
under “Visible Loss or Damage.” Otherwise, proceed to remove the
equipment from the carton. Before disposing of any packing material, check
it carefully for small parts. Then perform a visual inspection of the equipment
to detect any evidence of damage which might have occurred during
shipment. Check the following:
1. all components against the enclosed packing list,
2. all module plug-in units,
3. all wire plug-in connections.
The equipment was carefully packed and thoroughly inspected before
leaving our factory. All units are tested and checked for problems prior to
shipping. It is asked that when a problem does occur that all parts and
components be inspected for damage (especially when the unit is not in
working order when received). Responsibility for safe delivery was assumed
by the carrier upon acceptance of the shipment. Claims for loss of damage
sustained in transit must therefore be made upon the carrier, as follows:
VISIBLE LOSS OR DAMAGE
Any external evidence of loss or damage must be noted on the freight bill or
express receipt, and signed by the carrier’s agent. Failure to adequately
describe such external evidence of loss or damage may result in the carrier’s
refusal to honor a damage claim. The form required to file such a claim will
be supplied by the carrier.
CONCEALED LOSS OR DAMAGE
Concealed loss or damage means loss or damage which does not become
apparent until the merchandise has been unpacked. The contents might
have been damaged in transit due to rough handling even though the
container may not show external damage. When the damage is discovered
upon unpacking, make a written request for inspection by the carrier’s agent
within 48 hours of the delivery date. Then file a claim with the carrier since
such damage is the carrier’s responsibility. The form required to file such a
claim will be supplied by the carrier. Do not destroy packing materials, or
move material from one location to another before the carrier makes their
inspection.
If the system or any unit is damaged, notify “Sonics.” “Sonics” will arrange
for repair or replacement of damaged equipment without waiting for the
claim against the carrier to be settled, provided a new purchase order is
issued to cover the repair or replacement costs. Should any damage,
shortage or discrepancy exist, please notify us immediately.
NOTE: We
recommend keeping all
carton(s) and packing
material in case it
might be necessary to
move the equipment,
or to ship it for repair.
