Specimen removal

space, change the servo control mode to stroke control and retract the
actuator.
2. Turn the hydraulic service manifold (HSM) off.
3. Open the front door of the frame.
4. Remove the extensometers from the specimen, and insert the zero pins. The
zero pins help protect the extensometers from inadvertent over-travel.
