detachable power cord.
Emergency Stop Button
The frame-mounted control is equipped with an Emergency Stop button to be used for emergency purposes
only. There is also an optional Remote Emergency Stop button. The Emergency Stop buttons will shut off
power to the main actuator and crosshead lift system. To release an activated button, turn it clockwise.
The Emergency Stop button should be periodically tested by pressing it when the controller is powered on,
but not when a test is running. The controller continuously monitors the redundant Emergency Stop chain
and will generate an interlock alerting the user if any problems are detected. Pressing the Emergency Stop
button allows the active state to be checked.
