Damage in Transit
Inspect the unit thoroughly and immediately upon receipt, for evidence of external or internal damage that may have occurred during shipment. Immediately notify the carrier making the delivery of any damage, since the carrier is usually liable for damage in shipment. Preserve packing materials, waybills, and other shipping documentation in order to claim any damages. After notifying the carrier, contact Tessonics to receive assistance in the damage claims, and provide replacement equipment, if necessary. Please note that your shipping container is re-usable and may be used in the future when returning the unit for recalibration or repair.
Setting Up
