The shipping containers should be immediately inspected for damage that may have occurred in shipment. <br /> Exercise care in opening the shipping container to avoid damage to the contents. Remove any blocking and cushioning from <br /> within the containers. <br /> Check all cushioning for spare parts before discarding. Visually check the pump and any spare parts for damage.
