III. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 1. General Warnings, Cautions and Notes: WARNING: Before using the Stone Vacuum Lifter, confirm the surface of the slab to be lifted is evenly flat, smooth, and free from dust, oil, or any kind of such harmful substances. Following this advise to prevent slipping the slabs during operation.
- Caution: Ensure that the operation manual is readily available and next to the place where the hoisting equipment is used. - Caution: Only allow well-trained and well-qualified persons to operate the lifter. - Caution: Wear safety equipment such as: helmet, gloves, etc. - Caution: Inspect the lifter to ensure that it has no physical damage and functions properly.

Please note: The pressure indicator has to stay always in the safe zone from -70 kPa to -80 kPa (figure 1). Figure 1 - Stop operation immediately when any abnormal sign (any of deformation, air leakage, source pressure of less than 6 bar, etc.) or noises occur.
5. Device Usage: Preliminary Safety Checks Have a trained and well-qualified person perform the safety checks on the lifter before each use. WARNING: * Ensure that the Stone Vacuum Lifter is correctly installed and in safe working conditions. * Ensure that the gauge indicator is always in the Green zone at the left, showing the vacuum pressure is sound.

Caution: Reconfirm that the suction cups are firmly catching and absorbing the slab surface. In case of vertical slab application, a little push of the equipment towards the slab may help firm and faster catch os the slab. Step 6: Lift and move the stone slab to the desired position: - When the air pressure is between -70 Kpa and -80 Kpa, lift the stone slab and confirm the equipment is securely grasping the slab,...

Step 7: Place the stone slab at the desired postion (figure 7.1). Figure 7.1...
APPENDIX 1) To adjust the angle of suction cups from 0 to 90 : “tilt control lever” to 90° to tilt the suction cups from 0 to Lean the 90 and reverse. - Hold the Lifter positioning handle by hand firmly. - Pull the tilt control lever towards “90 ”.

5) To clean the check (one-way) valve: Sometimes any foreign object may clog the check (one way) valve. In those cases, fix the problem in the following manner. Use a small screwdriver and carefully unscrew the check valve Separate the check valve - Clean by flushing water or wipe out any foreign object from inside the check valve.
