Appendix C: Packaging for Shipment
If you ship the TDS Oscilloscope, pack it in the original shipping carton and
packing material. If the original packing material is not available, package the
instrument as follows:
1. Obtain a corrugated cardboard shipping carton with inside dimensions at
least 15 cm (6 in) taller, wider, and deeper than the oscilloscope. The
shipping carton must be constructed of cardboard with 170 kg (375 pound)
test strength.
2. If you are shipping the oscilloscope to a Tektronix field office for repair,
attach a tag to the oscilloscope showing the instrument owner and address,
the name of the person to contact about the instrument, the instrument type,
and the serial number.
3. Wrap the oscilloscope with polyethylene sheeting or equivalent material to
protect the finish.
4. Cushion the oscilloscope in the shipping carton by tightly packing dunnage
or urethane foam on all sides between the carton and the oscilloscope. Allow
7.5 cm (3 in) on all sides, top, and bottom.
5. Seal the shipping carton with shipping tape or an industrial stapler.
NOTE. Do not ship the oscilloscope with a disk inside the disk drive. When the
disk is inside the drive, the disk release button sticks out. This makes the button
more prone to damage than otherwise.
