APPENDIX 1
A GUIDE TO THE SAFE USE OF MAINS POWERED TEST FRAMES
MECMESIN TEST FRAMES HAVE BEEN DESIGNED AND MANUFACTURED IN A CONTROLLED SYSTEM
TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE WITH ALL RELEVANT EUROPEAN COMMUNITY DIRECTIVES.

& FAQ section, then double-click on Certificates of Conformity.
Receiving and Unpacking
1
Upon receiving the Mecmesin test frame ensure adequate equipment is available to safely lift the test
frame from the packaging. Trying to lift heavy items without adequate assistance or the correct
equipment may lead to accidental personal injury.
2 Once safely removed from the packaging place the test frame on a stable and level work surface. Inspect
the machine for any signs of obvious transit damage.
IF ANY DAMAGE IS DISCOVERED DO NOT GO ANY FURTHER WITH INSTALLATION AND DO NOT
CONNECT TO MAINS SUPPLY UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
Contact your local supplier immediately who will decide the most appropriate action to rectify the situation as
quickly as possible.
Installing the Machine
3 After placing the machine on a stable and level work surface, check that the mains inlet voltage
corresponds to your electrical installation - either 230 Vac or 110 Vac. The machine has a label close
to the mains inlet connector which advises which voltage is set for.
If the machine does not correspond to your supply, inform your local Mecmesin supplier who will rectify
the situation. Connecting a mains powered test frame to the wrong supply will almost certainly cause
extensive damage to the equipment.
The Mecmesin test frames must only ever be connected to a mains power installation that has a fully
installed earthing system.
CONNECTING A MAINS POWERED TEST FRAME TO AN ELECTRICAL POWER OUTLET WITHOUT AN
EARTH CONNECTION IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND COULD LEAD TO A RISK OF ELECTROCUTION.
Mecmesin test frames should only ever be installed in suitable environmental conditions. The
operating temperature should be within the range 5ºC to 40ºC and the relative humidity should not
exceed 92.5%.
After all the above points have been checked and confirmed to be correct you may connect the
machine to the mains outlet only with the supplied mains lead.
When power is applied with the ON/OFF switch in the ‘ON’ position the mains indicator light will illuminate.
This shows power is reaching the machine and it is therefore ready for use.
Check its basic operation with reference to the operating manual.
Operator Training
4
Each person who is to use the machine should be fully trained in the safe use of the motorised testing
machines. The machine has the ability to generate forces large enough to cause permanent damage to
human limbs if placed between the crosshead and the base.
