next to the front panel. When this button is depressed, power is removed from the tester.

Power is returned to the tester when the emergency stop button is released to the UP position.
To release the emergency stop button, first switch machine power OFF from the main power entry on the
back, then press firmly down on the stop button and turn in a clockwise direction. This will disengage the
lock and return the emergency stop button to its normal position.
FAULT AND ERROR CODES
The TCM can detect and display several types of faults and errors. These error codes will be displayed on the same display that indicates the crosshead speed.
If one of the faults or errors are detected, the display will display only the fault/error code and no longer indicate the crosshead speed.
Also, if in fault or error state, three (3) quick audible beeps will sound followed by a 3 second delay and then sound again in a repeating cycle until power is
turned off to the TCM and the fault condition is no longer present (except where noted). Below is a list of the faults and error codes:
