10 SEPARATING THE COLUMN FROM THE BASE /
COLUMN EXTENSION INSTALLATION
The column may be separated from the base to accommodate alternative mounting arrangements, for
considerations such as safety, increased sample clearance, integration into existing equipment, etc. The
instructions below reference Model ESM303, however, the process is similar with the ESM303H.
10.1 Removing the base from the column
To remove the base, follow these instructions:
1. Power off the test stand and disconnect the power cable.
2. Lay the test stand on its side and remove the 6 screws from the underside of the base. Carefully
remove the base from the frame. Refer to the image below.
