Unpacking and Inspection
Inspect the shipping container for any evidence of damage. If any damage is found, notify the
carrier in case a claim may have to be filed. This will only be necessary should the contents also
be found to be damaged.
Unpack the equipment from the container. Retain all shipping materials for future use, such as
for reshipment or RMA service. Visually inspect the equipment for any possible damage
incurred during shipment.
Check the equipment against the packing list to ensure that the shipment is complete. Should any
items be found to be either missing or damaged, contact customer support to report and record
before proceeding forward.
