XHF-42AII Stiffness Tester Setup

This topic provides you with a description of the XHF-42AII stiffness tester machine setup procedure.

Stiffness Tester Preparation

The XHF-42AII Stiffness Tester should be placed on a strong horizontal surface; the horizontality of the tester position should be verified with the spirit level and adjusted by screw legs.
Connecting Power to XHF-42AII Stiffness Tester
Plug one end of the power cord into its receptacle at the rear of the stiffness tester and the other end into a wall outlet with local earth ground (3-prong connector). Use a local electricity adaptor, if necessary.

Before turning the power on, the following safety checks and procedures should be performed:
1. Never operate the device if there is any visible damage to the power cord or the test stand itself. The XHF-42AII is powered by 110V/220V. Any contact with this high voltage can cause serious injury or even death.
2. Ensure that the device is kept away from water or any electrically conductive liquids at all times.
3. Make sure the electrical outlet powering the device has local earth ground (3-prong connector).
4. The device should be serviced by a trained technician only. Power must be disconnected before covers are removed.
Turning on the Machine

After the above safety checks and procedures have been performed, the stiffness tester can be powered on and is ready for operation.

Turn on the stiffness tester with the power switch located in the front of the machine.

Once the machine is turned on, the prompt appears on the device screen as shown below. Click the English button to continue.

Once the prompt is confirmed, the device main menu appears as shown below. The machine now is ready for measurement.
