The status and validity of MTS’ operating software is also checked during system verification and routine calibration of MTS hardware. These controlled calibration processes compare the final test results after statistical analysis against the predicted response of the calibration standards. With these established methods, MTS assures its customers that MTS products meet MTS’ exacting quality standards when initially installed and will continue to perform as intended over time.

Lifting and Moving Instructions
This manual provides guidelines for lifting and moving your MTS Criterion material testing system.
Unless otherwise specified, it is your responsibility to safely off-load, unpack, and move the equipment to the final location on your premises. Equipment insurance is also your responsibility.
Before moving the equipment from the receiving area to its final location, check the dimensions of all doors and passages through which the machine will travel.
For dimensions, see “Packaging Dimensions and Weights” on page 6 and “Load
Frame Dimensions and Weights” on page 7.

WARNING
The MTS Criterion frames are heavy.
Moving the frame using improper procedures can injure personnel (for example, strained muscles and back injuries) or damage the frame.
Moving and positioning the MTS Criterion frame must be performed by personnel trained in moving large equipment.
MTS Criterion frames weigh from 60–3500 kg (132–7716 lb). Other apparatus such as the pallet, packaging, and accessories add to the overall weight. If you have any questions, call MTS.

Responsibilities
Responsibilities
This section details the responsibilities of both the customer and MTS to ensure that the proposed testing area is suitable for the installation and operation of the testing system.
Customer’s Responsibilities
Site preparation
Handling and
transporting
Insurance and safety
It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that all required support services are available, and that all necessary checks are made prior to installing the testing
system. These services and checks are described below.
Proper site preparation is imperative so that the testing system operates in accordance with its specifications and provides accurate test results. The customer must ensure that the site requirements are satisfied prior to scheduling the installation appointment.
Unless specifically arranged otherwise, it is the customer’s responsibility to
arrange the off-loading, unpacking, and moving of the testing system to the final site location. For details on handling and transporting your system to its final location, refer to the moving instructions later in the manual.
Upon special arrangements, an MTS service engineer can supervise the off-
loading and transportation of the load frame to its final site. For additional information about this service, contact MTS’ Service department or your local MTS office.
It is the customer’s responsibility to provide slings and hoist rings. Slings and hoist rings must conform to local codes and regulations and be sized correctly to support the weight of the load frame. Weights and thread sizes are provided in this manual.
Under MTS’ standard contract, the shipping terms are Ex-Works (or FOB Factory), meaning ownership and liability for the testing system transfers to the customer at MTS’ loading dock. Unless other shipping terms are specified in a purchase order, which MTS does not dispute, the Ex-Works shipping terms apply. Under these terms, the customer is responsible for securing the applicable transit insurance on the shipment and arranging safe transport to the final destination. Arrangements can be made through MTS to secure insurance coverage and shipping, at the customer’s expense.
When transporting a load frame within your own premises, you are responsible for its safe transport. Upon special arrangements, an MTS service engineer or Business Partner can supervise the transportation to the load frame’s final site. For additional information on this service, contact MTS’ Service department or your local MTS office.

Responsibilities
MTS’ Responsibilities
MTS’ standard contract requires MTS to provide the necessary services to ensure that your testing system operates accurately. These services are described below.
Additional services and equipment may be negotiated with MTS, but these additional services must be mutually agreed upon and specifically described in your purchase order.
Insurance Under MTS’ standard contract, the shipping terms are Ex-Works (or FOB Factory), meaning ownership and liability for the testing system transfers to the customer at MTS’ loading dock. Unless other shipping terms are specified in a purchase order, which MTS does not dispute, the Ex-Works shipping terms apply. Under these terms, MTS is responsible for insurance coverage while the testing system is in the factory until it reaches the loading dock for shipping.
Installation When the site location is prepared and all the components are on site, MTS is
Initial operation
Documentation
responsible for the complete installation of the load frame, its components, and any additional accessories that may have been purchased. The customer must not make any attempt to install the load frame without an MTS service representative present.
Once the installation is complete, MTS performs an initial operation of the load frame and a calibration check to ensure that it is working properly and measuring accurately. MTS also performs a customer demonstration that briefly describes how to operate the system.
MTS provides all the documentation required to operate the system, including manuals for the load frame and any required software applications.The manuals are available on mts.com by yourself.
Additional copies are available and can be ordered through the MTS Sales department or found online at MTS.com.
