GENERAL INFORMATION
PRODUCT WARRANTY
Starrett force measurement products carry a 3-year (from date of
purchase) warranty against defects in material and workmanship (parts
and labor), subject to factory inspection.
Starrett will repair or replace, at its option, any part or parts found to
be defective in workmanship or material. Starrett warrants repaired or
replaced parts for the balance of the original warranty period or 90 days,
whichever is longer. Parts returned to the factory under warranty will be
repaired at no charge. Freight charges to the factory will be paid by the
customer. Return freight charges to the customer will be paid by Starrett.
This warranty does not cover damages from such causes as abuse,
accident, neglect, fire or freight damage. It does not apply to defects
resulting from modifications made by the customer or improper use of
the system or its components.
DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITIES
Starrett shall have no liability or responsibility to the customer or any
other person or entity with respect to any liability, loss or damage caused
or alleged to be caused directly or indirectly by this documentation,
or the hardware described in it. This includes but is not limited to
any interruption of service, loss of business or anticipatory profits, or
consequential damages resulting from the use or operation of hardware
or equipment.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Force measurement systems are potentially hazardous. Prior to
operating your testing system, Starrett recommends that you read and
understand the instruction manuals for your system and components
and that you receive training on the proper use of this equipment from
your authorized Starrett representative.
Observe all warnings and cautions identified in this manual for your
equipment. A warning identifies a function that may lead to injury
or death. A caution identifies a hazard that may lead to damage to
equipment or loss of data.
Starrett products, to the best of our knowledge, comply with various
national and international safety standards as they apply to material and
force measurement testing. This Starrett product has been tested and
found to comply with the following recognized standards:
• EN61010-1 Safety Requirements for Electrical Equipment
• EN61000-6-3 EMC Generic Emissions Standard
• EN61000-6-1 EMC Generic Immunity Standard
Starrett also certifies that this product complies with all relevant EU
directives and carries the CE mark.
ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY
Your DFG Force Gage is designed to comply with International
Electromagnetic Compliance (IEC) standards.
To ensure reproduction of this EMC performance, connect this equipment
to a low impedance ground connection. Typical suitable connections are
a ground spike or the steel frame of a building.
WARNINGS
Emergency Stop (FMM System Applications)
Press the emergency stop button whenever you feel there is an unsafe
condition during a test. The emergency stop button removes power to
the motor drive system causing the crosshead to stop.
FLYING DEBRIS
Eye protection, protective clothing and splinter/safety shields should
be used whenever any possibility exists of a hazard from the failure of
a sample, assembly or structure under test. Due to the wide range of
materials that may be tested and that may result in a failure which may
cause bodily injury, the precautions and preventative methods taken
prior to testing is entirely the responsibility of the owner and the user of
the equipment.
CRUSH HAZARD (FMM SYSTEM APPLICATIONS)
Always use caution when installing or removing apparatus and your
sample material between the frame's crosshead and the base. A
potential pinch/crush hazard exists. Keep clear of the testing fixture,
and particularly the jaw faces at all times. Keep clear of the crosshead
during movement. If available, always make sure the Grip Load feature
is enabled. This will stop inadvertent crosshead operation if in manual
mode. Always ensure that other personnel cannot operate the system
while you are working within the test fixture area.
ELECTRICAL HAZARD
Disconnect equipment from the electrical power supply before removing
any electrical safety covers. Disconnect power when replacing fuses.
Never reconnect power while the covers are removed. Never operate the
system with protective covers removed.
ROTATING MACHINERY HAZARD (FMM SYSTEM APPLICATIONS)
Always disconnect power before removing covers that protect the user
from the internal rotating mechanisms. If maintenance to the drive
mechanism is required, and power is needed to perform maintenance
to the drive system, maintenance should be performed by an authorized
Starrett representative who has received factory training on performing
such procedures.
