INTENDED USE HARACTERISTICS Make sure the vacuum lifter is intended Do NOT lift explosives, radioactive to handle each load according to these substances or other hazardous materials. requirements: • The load weight must not exceed the Maximum Load Capacity. • The load must be a single piece of relatively nonporous material with a flat and 1, 2 relatively smooth contact surface.
INTENDED USE PERATING NVIRONMENT Make sure the vacuum lifter is intended for use in each work environment, given the following restrictions: • This lifter is not intended for any environment that is Never use lifter dangerous to the operator or damaging to the lifter. Avoid in dangerous environments containing explosives, caustic chemicals and environme...
OPERATION EFORE SING THE IFTER Determine whether the vacuum lifter is capable of each intended task (see “SPECIFICATIONS” “INTENDED USE”). Then complete the following preparations: Taking Safety Precautions • Be trained in all industry and regulatory Read all directions and safety standards for lifter operation in your region.
OPERATION Performing Inspections and Tests • Follow the “I ” “T ”. NSPECTION CHEDULE ESTING • Service the 2 air filters whenever a bowl contains Examine air filters regularly liquid or other contaminates, or an element and service when needed. appears dirty (see “A ”...
OPERATION Preparing to Use the Remote Control System The optional radio transmitter (fig. 1A) and radio receiver enable you to activate the lifter's “attach” and “release” functions at distances up to 250' [76 m], provided you have a clear and direct view of the lifter and its status indicators.
OPERATION TTACH THE ADS TO A Make sure the contact surfaces of the load and vacuum pads are clean (see “Pad Cleaning”). Positioning the Lifter on the Load 1) Center the pad frame on the load. 2) Make sure all vacuum pads will fit on the load and will be loaded evenly.
OPERATION Powering up the Lifter Press the lifter's power button ( — fig. 1A). The vacuum pump will run for a few seconds, as a ® normal function of the Intelli-Grip self-diagnostics. The lifter automatically tests the 9-volt battery for the notification buzzer each time the lifter is powered up.
OPERATION To use the optional Remote Control System, press the “attach” button ( — fig. 1D) on the radio transmitter. The vacuum pump will run until the vacuum pads seal completely. If the lifter takes too long to attach, the notification buzzer chirps and the LCD screen displays “Vacuum not increasing normally”, along with a diagnostic code (see “I ®...
OPERATION IFT AND OVE THE Lift bar must be vertical to lift load. Interpreting the Lift Light When vacuum is sufficient to lift the Never lift load unless lift Maximum Load Capacity, the vacuum light is illuminated, lift light turns on automatically and the because premature lifting could vacuum pump turns off temporarily, to result in load release and...
OPERATION 2) Stop using the lifter until the cause of the vacuum loss can be identified: Conduct the “Pad Inspection” and perform the “Vacuum Test”. 3) Correct any faults before resuming normal operation of the lifter. Controlling the Lifter and Load When the lifter is ready, use the hoisting equipment to raise the lifter and load as needed.
OPERATION OTATE THE Make sure load is positioned correctly on lifter (as previously directed). Never disengage rotation and tilt latches at the same time, because this could result in load damage or personal injury. Make sure the load has enough clearance to rotate without contacting anyone or anything.
OPERATION ILT THE Make sure load is positioned correctly on lifter (as previously directed). Never disengage rotation and tilt latches at the same time, because this could result in load damage or personal injury. Make sure the load has enough clearance to tilt without contacting anyone or anything.
OPERATION ELEASE THE ADS FROM THE Make sure load is at rest and fully supported before releasing vacuum pads. 1) Hold the “function” button ( — fig. 1A) and the “release” button ( — fig. 1A). If the vacuum seal does not break, follow the directions on the LCD screen.
OPERATION FTER SING THE IFTER Press the power button ( , fig 1A) and the “function” button ( , fig. 1A) to power down the vacuum lifter. 2) Charge the battery after each workday as needed (see “12-V ”). ATTERY ECHARGE 3) Use the hoisting equipment to lower the lifter gently onto a stable support.
OPERATION Storing the Lifter Use the covers supplied to keep the vacuum pads clean (fig. 1A). CE/UKCA -- To prevent the lifter from tipping over on relatively horizontal surfaces, place the vacuum pads facedown on a clean, smooth, flat surface. Then lower the lift bar and place a support under the lift point.
INSPECTIONS AND TESTS NSPECTION CHEDULE Perform inspections according to the following frequency schedule. If any fault is found, correct it and perform the next most frequent inspection before using the vacuum lifter. Note: If a lifter is used less than 1 day in a 2-week period, perform the Periodic Inspection before using it.
INSPECTIONS AND TESTS ESTING Perform the following test to determine whether or not a load surface is too porous or rough: Lifter/Load Compatibility Test 1) Make sure the vacuum generating system is functioning correctly (see “Vacuum Test”). 2) Thoroughly clean the load surface and the vacuum pads (see “Pad Cleaning”).
INSPECTIONS AND TESTS Perform the following tests before placing the lifter in service initially and following any repair, when directed in the “I ”, or whenever necessary: NSPECTION CHEDULE Operational Tests Test all features and functions of the lifter (see “OPERATING FEATURES” and “OPERATION”). Vacuum Test 1) Clean the face of each vacuum pad (see “Pad...
INSPECTIONS AND TESTS Rated Load Test The following steps must be performed or supervised by a qualified person: 1) Use a test load that weighs 125% (± 5%) of the Maximum Load Capacity and has the appropriate “L ”. HARACTERISTICS 2) Attach the vacuum pads to the load as previously directed.
MAINTENANCE Note: Refer to SERVICE MANUAL #36106 when applicable. ACUUM AINTENANCE Pad-to-Load Friction Coefficient The friction coefficient represents the lifter's ability to resist load slippage. The Maximum Load Capacity is based on a friction coefficient of 1, as determined by testing of clean, new, standard rubber vacuum pads on clean, dry, regular glass.
MAINTENANCE Pad Cleaning Regularly clean the face of each vacuum pad (fig. 1A), using soapy water or other mild cleansers to remove oil, dust and other contaminates. Never use harsh chemicals on vacuum pad. Solvents, petroleum-based products (including kerosene, gasoline and diesel fuel) or other harsh chemicals can damage vacuum pads.
MAINTENANCE VPFS10T P EPLACE EALING ING IN If the lifter has VPFS10T vacuum pads, replace sealing rings (#49724RT or #49724TT) as follows: 1) Remove the old sealing ring (fig. 1A). Note: Make sure the entire vacuum pad is clean, including the mounting groove.
MAINTENANCE 12-V ATTERY ECHARGE Charge the battery whenever the battery gauge shows reduced energy. Caution: Make sure the lifter is powered down. Identify the input voltage marked on the battery Make sure power source has charger and plug it in to an appropriate power ground fault circuit interrupter.
MAINTENANCE OTIFICATION UZZER ATTERY EPLACEMENT 1) Power down the lifter. 2) Release the buzzer battery holder by pressing inward and sideward in the direction marked on the holder. Slide the battery tray out (fig. 3A). 4) Install a new 9-volt battery according to the polarity markings. 5) Slide the battery tray back into position.
