ABSTRACT

The delicate parts of a PC system are easily damaged by careless handling during installation, maintenance and transportation. The following tips on good handling methods should therefore be followed at all times:

• When moving a computer and peripherals from one location to another, unplug all connectors and carry each item separately. Do not try and carry two items at once to save unplugging the joining lead, such as a monitor and base unit. If the computer system is to be moved over any great distance, place the monitor system unit and peripherals in their original packing.
