  • Page 9: Assembly

    ASSEMBLY 1) Remove all shipping materials and save them with the shipping container for future use. 2) Suspend the lifter from a forklift or other appropriate hoisting equipment: 2.1) Select hoisting equipment rated for the Maximum Load Capacity plus the Lifter Weight.
  • Page 10 ASSEMBLY Connect the electrical connectors on the vacuum package (fig. 3A-C). Attach the vacuum package securely to the forklift or other hoisting equipment in a protected location where the vacuum package will move with the lifter and will not interfere with hoisting equipment (see arrows in fig.
  • Page 11 ASSEMBLY Route the vacuum line from the vacuum package to the lifter, making sure the line will not become tangled during operation. Then connect the line using quick connectors (figs. 5A-B). 6) Perform tests as required under “T ”. ESTING Rev 17.2/12-21 MT-10TDC-HV-C: #35094...

    2..A “single piece” of material includes curtainwall assemblies, unitized glazing systems and similar construction units. 3..Vacuum pads made from a heat-resistant rubber compound can enable you to lift loads with higher surface temperatures. Contact WPG or an authorized dealer for more information.
  • Page 13: Operating Environment

    1..Although lifter use may be possible at higher elevation, lifting capacity is reduced whenever the lifter is unable to attain vacuum in the green range on the vacuum gauge. Contact WPG for more information. 2..Special provisions may allow the lifter to operate outside the specified temperature range. Contact WPG for more information. Rev 17.2/12-21...
  • Page 14: Operation

    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 Read all directions and safety rules before using and regulatory standards lifter.
  • Page 15: Checking The Battery

    OPERATION Checking the Battery Always check battery energy before every lift. Use the battery gauge to determine whether the battery needs to be charged (see “B ATTERY ”). Never use the lifter unless battery energy appears in the green range. ECHARGE •...
  • Page 16: T O Use The Pad Shutoffs

    OPERATION SE THE HUTOFFS Each pad shutoff on the pad frame controls the vacuum line to the adjacent vacuum pad. Activating or deactivating the airflow at specific pads enables the lifter to handle loads with different weights and dimensions (see “SPECIFICATIONS”) or to avoid holes in the load surface. To support the maximum load weight and larger load Closing any pad shutoff dimensions, all pads must be activated;...
  • Page 17: T O Attach The Pads To A Load

    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 Determine which will be the top edge of the load while lifting, and position the long row of vacuum pads near that edge (fig.
  • Page 18: Sealing The Pads On The Load

    OPERATION Sealing the Pads on the Load Place the power switch in the “on” position ( — fig. 1A). Keep power switch in “on” position ( ) throughout lift. The vacuum pump will turn on, the low vacuum warning light will remain lit until the vacuum pads seal.
  • Page 19: Reading The Vacuum Gauge

    • When necessary, perform the “Vacuum Test”. 1..If the lifter is used above the maximum Operating Elevation (see “SPECIFICATIONS”), it may not be able to maintain sufficient vacuum for lifting. Contact WPG for more information. Rev 17.2/12-21 MT-10TDC-HV-C: #35094...
  • Page 20: T O Lift And Move The Load

    OPERATION IFT AND OVE THE Interpreting the Warning Light When vacuum is Never lift load unless warning devices turn off, because sufficient to lift the this could result in load release and personal injury. Maximum Load Capacity, the vacuum pump and the low vacuum warning light turn off temporarily, to conserve battery energy.
  • Page 21: Controlling The Lifter And Load

    OPERATION Controlling the Lifter and Load When the lifter is ready, use the hoisting equipment to raise the lifter and load as needed. Use a control handle (circled in fig. 1A) to keep the lifter and load in the required position. Once there is enough clearance, you may move the load as required.
  • Page 22: Ilt The Oad

    OPERATION ILT THE 1) Make sure the load has enough clearance to tilt without contacting anyone or anything. 2) Tilt the load to the position needed: • Tilting the load to the upright position (fig. 1A) happens automatically when it is lifted. •...
  • Page 23: T O Release The Pads From The Load

    OPERATION ELEASE THE ADS FROM THE Make sure load is at rest and fully supported before releasing vacuum pads. Do not move lifter until pads release completely, because such movement could result in load damage or personal injury. Place the vacuum control valve lever perpendicular to the vacuum line (ie, in the “release”...
  • Page 24: Storing The Lifter

    OPERATION 4) Use the hoisting equipment to lower the vacuum lifter gently onto a stable support. Then detach the hoisting hook from the lift slings. Caution: Do not set the lifter on surfaces that could soil or damage vacuum pads. Protect their sealing rings by making sure each pad rests on spacers.
  • Page 25: Inspections And Tests

    2..The Periodic Inspection is also required whenever the lifter has been out of service for 1 year or more. Keep a written record of all Periodic Inspections. If necessary, return the lifter to WPG or an authorized dealer for repair (see “LIMITED...

    12" Hg [-41 kPa] for 5 minutes. If not, lifting this load requires additional precautions (eg, a load sling). Contact WPG for more information. 8) Lower the load after 5 minutes or before the vacuum level diminishes to 12" Hg [-41 kPa].
  • Page 27: Operational Tests

    INSPECTIONS AND TESTS Perform the following tests before placing the lifter in service initially, 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...

    7) Prepare a written report of the test and keep it on file. 1..An equivalent simulation may also be used. Contact WPG for more information. 2..A “qualified person” has successfully demonstrated the ability to solve problems relating to the subject matter and work, either by possessing a recognized degree in an applicable field or a certificate of professional standing, or by possessing extensive knowledge, training and experience.
  • Page 29: Maintenance

    MAINTENANCE Note: Refer to SERVICE MANUAL #36114 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 assumes a friction coefficient of 1, based on testing of clean, new, standard rubber vacuum pads on clean, dry, regular glass.
