If I understand you correctly, you filed a claim, will be reimbursed for the damage, and you still get to keep the machine???
I know you said it was with a shipping company and they may be different, but when you file with the USPS and the claim is finally accepted, you loose your merchandise forever. They confiscate it so to speak and you never see it again.
I would send the machine back to the shipper if possible, get a full refund, and find another machine.
