5 Transport and Storage

1 Ensure that the device is in a straight (fully extended) position when not in use.
2 If the limb is to be stored upright then it must be secured to prevent it falling over or flexing.
3 If the device is shipped either on its own or built into a limb it should be maintained in an
extended position and packaged in a suitable box to allow this.
4 If a unit is to be returned, contact Blatchford prior to sending if there is any sign of physical
damage to the battery pack.
5 For transport purposes the unit must be switched off, and packed securely so that a) it cannot
be inadvertently switched on and become operative while in transit; b) the unit is thoroughly
protected from damage in transit.
