111 Considering different applications (high forces, low forces, pushing or pulling) the assembly follows slightly different paths. Generally, assembling the load frame can be broken down into these steps:
112
113 * Install a base plate on the rotation stage (use spacers, decide which plate to use)
114 * Mount load cell on base plate with desired pin or clamp (depending on push or pull experiments)
115 * Mount sample tube (choose the tube type according to your application)
116 * Mount pusher
