4 SAFETY 

TIPS 

 

 

Wear eye and face protection when testing. Although the ESMH 
has relatively slow moving mechanisms, be aware of the dangers 
posed by potential energy that can accumulate in a sample during 
testing. 

 

 

Keep away from the moving parts of the test stand.  

 

 

Never operate the test stand if there is any visible damage to the 
power cord or the control unit. The ESMH is powered by 
110/220V AC current that is present in both the power cord and 
the control unit. Any contact with this high voltage can cause seri-
ous injury or even death.  

 

 

Ensure that the control unit is kept away from water or any other  
liquids at all times.  

 

 

Make sure the electrical outlet powering the test stand has local 
earth ground (3-hole outlet). 

 

 

 

Opening up the cover of the control unit is not recommended, as 
there are no user-serviceable parts inside. If you wish to open it, 
be sure to disconnect power before doing so. If any repairs are 
needed, contact Mark-10 or your distributor. 

 

 
 

5 SETUP 

 

 

Mounting to a workbench 

Place the ESMH on a clean, flat and level work area that meets the criteria out-
lined in the work area safety instructions. For accurate readings, the area 
should be free of vibrations.  
 
If desired, the test stand can be mounted to the work area with four 5/16 
screws.
