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.
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. P1-DC3: #35123AUS...
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 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.
1..The gauge face colors do not correspond with the circuit colors. 2..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 4.0/2-21...
OPERATION IFT AND OVE THE Lift bar must be vertical to lift load. Interpreting the Lift Light When the vacuum lifter is ready to lift Never lift load unless lift the Maximum Load Capacity, the light is illuminated, vacuum lift light turns on automatically and because premature lifting could the 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. 1B). 2) Charge the battery completely and repeat every 6 months (see “12-V ”). ATTERY ECHARGE Disconnect the electrical connectors (figs. 3A-B and figs. 3C-E) to prevent battery discharge. 4) Store the lifter in a clean, dry location.
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].
2..During this time, the LCD screen displays “WARNING: Is load attached?”, the notification buzzer chirps and the strobe light flashes. 3..For more information, search for your lifter’s Model Number on www.wpg.com and select the “Troubleshooting” link on the product page.
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.
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.
4) Allow each pad to dry completely before using the lifter. 1..A brush with bristles that do not harm rubber can help remove contaminates clinging to sealing edges. If these cleaning methods are not successful, contact WPG or an authorized dealer for assistance. P1-DC3: #35123AUS...
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.
