Releasing the Limit Bar
Squeeze the handle on the slide limit in contact with the limit actuator. When released, the
limit bar returns to neutral position and the limit status is canceled.
Limit Fixed Limit Released
The crosshead upper and lower limits expected during a test must be set to proper values.
If setting these limits is difficult, determine the setting range so that the gap between the
crosshead top jig and the crossyoke and the gap between the crosshead bottom jig and
the table jig are 20 mm or more (to prevent a collision).
Limit collars must be attached with top and bottom oriented correctly. Attach the collar so
that when the limit actuator presses against the limit collar, the collar presses against the
limit bar.
