Lifting Load; Fastening The Load Securing Chain - probst SH-1000-MINI Operating Instructions Manual

Operating Instructions
5.2.1

Lifting load:

•
Start the gasoline engine (further details → see HONDA operating instructions). and switch on the
warning device
•
Position the lifting device directly above the load. Do not pull to the side. Distribute load evenly.
•
Place the lifting device on the load.
•
Shift the bushing on the slide valve. Suction is applied to the load.
•
Watch the pressure gauge. As soon as a vacuum pressure of -0.6 bar has been reached you can lift the
load. Do not under any circumstances lift the load before the manometer has reached this level as the
load would fall off.
•
When lifting be sure to lift only one piece at a time. Use a screwdriver to carefully remove any pieces
attached to the one you are lifting before proceeding. Do not separate them with your hands as they
could be crushed
5.2.1.1

Fastening the load securing chain

•
Lift the device slightly with the load sucked in (approx. 20-30 cm). Remove the load securing chain (8)
from the chain box (9).
•
Throw the load securing chain under the lifted load.
•
Never touch the load (stone slab) with your hands! Danger of crushing!
•
Hook the load securing chain tightly onto the other side of the device (stow the end of the chain in the
chain box (9)).
•
The load securing chain (8) must be tightly attached to the load (fig. A) so that in case of vacuum
failure/loss (e.g. due to power failure) the load is held by the load securing chain. The load securing chain
must never hang loosely under the load (fig. A), otherwise the load may fall down in case of vacuum
failure/loss. Danger to life!!!
•
Now the device can be transported to its destination with the attached load.
•
Carefully lower the load (approx. 0.5 m from the ground), unhook the load securing chain and pull it out
from under the load. Never reach under the load (stone slab) with your hands! Danger of squeezing!
•
Put the load securing chain back into the chain box (9).
•
As soon as the load has been caught by the load securing chain, the load securing chain must be checked
professionally and replaced if necessary.
•
Damaged load securing chains must not be used any longer!
