    BTH-1 1..Available with other rubber compounds for special purposes (see www.WPG.com). 2..The Maximum Load Capacity is rated at a vacuum of 16" Hg [-54 kPa] on clean, smooth, nonporous flat surfaces with a friction coefficient of 1. Pad compound, load rigidity, strength, surface conditions, overhang, angle, center of gravity and temperature can also affect the lifting capacity.

    ASSEMBLY Remove all restraints from the vacuum lifter and save them with the shipping container for future use. 2) Position the lift point as needed for the lifter's intended use (fig. 2A): Loosen or remove the bolts and move the lift point to create the best hang angle.
  • Page 10 ASSEMBLY 3.4) Use the hoisting equipment to remove the lifter from the shipping container. Avoid damaging the vacuum pads. Connect the electrical connectors (figs. 4A-B and figs. 4C-D). Remove the pad covers (fig. 5A) and save them for future use. 6) Perform tests as required under “T ”...
  • Page 11: Intended Use

    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 12: 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. P1-DC: #35111...
  • Page 13: Operation

    OPERATION EFORE SING THE IFTER Determine whether the vacuum lifter is capable of each intended task (see “SPECIFICATIONS” on page 3 and “INTENDED USE” on page 9). 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 14: 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 ” on page 27). Never use the lifter unless battery energy appears in the green range. ECHARGE •...
  • Page 15: 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” on page 26). 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.
  • Page 16: Sealing The Pads On The Load

    1..Although a vacuum pad may become distorted during shipping or storage, this condition should correct itself with continued use. 2..If the lifter is used above the maximum Operating Elevation (see “SPECIFICATIONS” on page 3), it may not be able to maintain sufficient vacuum for lifting. Contact WPG for more information. P1-DC: #35111...
  • Page 17: T O Lift And Move The Load

    OPERATION IFT AND OVE THE Lift bar must be vertical to lift load. Interpreting the Warning Light and Optional Warning Buzzer When the vacuum Never lift load unless warning devices turn off, because lifter is ready to lift this could result in load release and personal injury. the Maximum Load Capacity, the vacuum pump and the low vacuum warning light turn off temporarily, to conserve battery energy.
  • Page 18: 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 the 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 19: T O Rotate The Load

    OPERATION OTATE THE Never disengage rotation and tilt latches at the same time, because this could result in load damage or personal injury. Make sure load is positioned correctly on lifter (as previously directed). Make sure the load has enough clearance to rotate without contacting anyone or anything.
  • Page 20: T O Tilt The Load

    OPERATION ILT THE Never disengage rotation and tilt latches at the same time, because this could result in load damage or personal injury. Make sure load is positioned correctly on lifter (as previously directed). Make sure the load has enough clearance to tilt without contacting anyone or anything.
  • Page 21: 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. 1) Press the lever to release the latch and push the valve handle inward (fig. 1A) to the “release” position ( ). Do not move lifter until pads release completely, because such movement could result in load damage or personal injury.
  • Page 22: Storing The Lifter

    OPERATION Storing the Lifter Use the pad covers supplied (fig. 1B) to keep the vacuum pads clean. !!–CE–!! 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.
  • Page 23: 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 WARRANTY” on page 29).
  • Page 24: Testing

    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 25: Operational Tests

    1..The load surface should have either a flat surface or no more curvature than the lifter is designed for, if any. 2..Move the valve handle to the “release” position (power off) before reconnecting the battery. 3..For more information, search for your lifter’s Model Number at www.WPG.com and select the “Troubleshooting” link on the product page.

  • Page 26: Rated Load Test

    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 27: Maintenance

    MAINTENANCE Notes: Refer to SERVICE MANUAL #36110 when applicable. See final section for wiring diagrams. ACUUM AINTENANCE Pad-to-Load Friction Coefficient The friction coefficient represents the lifter's ability to resist load slippage. 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.
  • Page 28: Pad Cleaning

    4) Allow the 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-DC: #35111...
