Hazard - Set the appropriate limits before performing loop tuning or running
waveforms or tests.
Operational limits are included within your testing system to suspend motion or
shut off the system when upper and/or lower bounds of actuator or crosshead travel,
or force or strain, are reached during testing. Correct setting of operational limits
by the operator, prior to testing, will reduce the risk of damage to test article and
system and associated hazard to the operator.
Electrical Hazard - Disconnect the electrical power supply before removing
the covers to electrical equipment.
Disconnect equipment from the electrical power supply before removing any
electrical safety covers or replacing fuses. Do not reconnect the power source while
the covers are removed. Refit covers as soon as possible.
Rotating Machinery Hazard - Disconnect power supplies before removing the
covers to rotating machinery.
Disconnect equipment from all power supplies before removing any cover which
gives access to rotating machinery. Do not reconnect any power supply while the
covers are removed unless you are specifically instructed to do so in the manual. If
the equipment needs to be operated to perform maintenance tasks with the covers
removed, ensure that all loose clothing, long hair, etc. is tied back. Refit covers as
soon as possible.
Hazard - Shut down the hydraulic power supply and discharge hydraulic
pressure before disconnection of any hydraulic fluid coupling.
Do not disconnect any hydraulic coupling without first shutting down the hydraulic
power supply and discharging stored pressure to zero. Tie down or otherwise secure
all pressurized hoses to prevent movement during system operation and to prevent
the hose from whipping about in the event of a rupture.
Hazard - Shut off the supply of compressed gas and discharge residual gas
pressure before you disconnect any compressed gas coupling.
Do not release gas connections without first disconnecting the gas supply and
discharging any residual pressure to zero.
