Shipping Information
Your equipment was carefully checked before shipping. Nevertheless, you should thoroughly inspect
the shipment
before
you sign to acknowledge that you received it.
When you sign the bill of lading, it tells the carrier that the items on the invoice were received in good
condition.
Do not sign the bill of lading until
after
you have inspected the shipment.
If any of the
items listed on the bill of lading are missing or damaged, do not accept the shipment until the carrier
makes a notation on the bill of lading that lists the missing or damaged goods.
If you discover missing or damaged goods
after
you receive the shipment and have signed the bill of
lading, notify the carrier at once and request the carrier to make an inspection. If the carrier will not
make an inspection, prepare a signed statement to the effect that you have notified the carrier (on a
specific date) and that the carrier has failed to comply with your request.
It is difficult to collect for loss or damage after you have given the carrier a signed bill of lading. If this
happens to you, file a claim with the carrier promptly. Support your claim with copies of the bill of
lading, freight bill, invoice, and photographs, if available. Our willingness to assist in helping you
process your claim does not make us responsible for collection of claims or replacement of lost or
damaged materials.

WARNING
There are many moving parts on a Tire Changer; keep clear of these moving parts
and the Tire being changed. In particular, when inflating a Tire, never lean over the
Tire; if it were to explode (which does happen), the force could injure or kill the
Operator or bystanders. During inflation, the Operator should be as far away from
the Tire as possible and all bystanders must be at least 30 feet away.
