Important:

The LUC module is enabled by pressing the handset Enable button, and the controls move only the
lower crosshead, while the handset controls move only the table, columns, and upper crosshead
assembly.

Understanding How the Grips Move

Warning

:

The grips on Series 60 load frames extend during clamping.

Holding the specimen with your hand too near the grip while clamping can result in crushed
fingers.

Always use a tool (pliers, tongs, channel lock, etc.) to hold the specimen during specimen
installation. Never hold the specimen with your hand when clamping the grips.
