Important: The Handset Enable button must show a green LED to enable use of the handset
or load unit controller. You will not be able to move the actuator from the handset or the lower
crosshead from the load unit controller until you light the green Handset Enable LED on the
handset.

b) Use the Actuator Up or Actuator down button to move the actuator out of the interlock condition.

Positioning the actuator at the bottom of its travel for the start of the test helps ensure that you have
adequate travel to run the test to completion.

Note: Both tension and compression tests require that the actuator be moved to the bottom of its
travel for the start of the test.
