  • Page 12: Intended Use

    INTENDED USE HARACTERISTICS Do NOT lift explosives, radioactive substances or other hazardous materials. Make sure the vacuum lifter is intended to handle each load, according to these 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 relatively smooth contact surface.

  • Page 13: Disposal Of The Lifter

    • The work environment is limited by the Maximum Operating Elevation and Operating Temperatures. Metal particles and similar environmental contaminates could result in vacuum pump failure. • The lifter is not designed to be watertight: Do not submerge the lifter or use it in unsuitable weather.

  • Page 14: Operation

    OPERATION EFORE SING THE IFTER Determine whether the vacuum lifter is capable of each intended task (see SPECIFICATIONS and INTENDED USE). Then complete the following preparations: Taking Safety Precautions Read all directions and safety rules before using lifter. • Be trained in all industry and regulatory standards for lifter operation in your region. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment.

  • Page 15: Performing Inspections And Tests

    Performing Inspections and Tests Always check battery energy before using lifter (see MAINTENANCE). • Follow the I and T (see NSPECTION CHEDULE ESTING MAINTENANCE). • Always perform a V before placing a lifter in service ACUUM (see MAINTENANCE). Examine air filters regularly and service when needed. •...

  • Page 16: T O Attach The Pads To A Load

  • Page 17: Powering Up The Lifter

    Powering up the Lifter Press the lifter's power button ( The vacuum pump will run for a few seconds, as a normal function of the Intelli-Grip ® self-diagnostics. To use the Remote Control System, hold the transmitter power button ( ) briefly to activate the radio transmitter.

  • Page 18: Sealing The Pads On The Load

    Sealing the Pads on the Load Press the “attach” button ( ) on the lifter. Keep “attach” function activated throughout lift. To use the Remote Control System, press the “attach” button ( ) 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 MAINTENANCE).

  • Page 19: Vacuum Level On Optimal Surfaces

    Vacuum Level on Optimal Surfaces clean, smooth, nonporous When the lifter is attached to surfaces, it should be able to maintain sufficient vacuum for lifting, except when used above the Maximum Operating Elevation. If it does not, check for faults in the vacuum generating system (see MAINTENANCE: ACUUM Vacuum Level on Other Surfaces contaminated, rough or porous...

  • Page 20: Ift And Ove The Oad

    IFT AND OVE THE Lift bar must be vertical to lift load. About the Tilt Linkage Unbalanced loads may tilt unexpectedly during lifter operation. The tilt linkage minimizes operator effort and automatically holds a balanced load in either the upright or the flat position. However, an unbalanced load may tilt unexpectedly, resulting in load damage or personal injury.

  • Page 21: Controlling The Lifter And Load

    2) Stop using the lifter until the cause of the vacuum loss is identified: • Inspect the vacuum pads for damage and perform the V (see MAINTENANCE). ACUUM • When necessary, inspect the entire vacuum generating system. 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.

  • Page 22: T O Rotate The Load

    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) Never rotate load that is oriented in flat position. Never rotate load when lifter is attached “above center”...

  • Page 23: T O Tilt The Load

    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) 1) Make sure the load has enough clearance to tilt without contacting anyone or anything.

  • Page 24: T O Release The Pads From The Load

    ELEASE THE ADS FROM THE Make sure load is at rest and fully supported before releasing vacuum pads. 1) Hold the “function” button ( ) and the “release” button ) to break the vacuum seal. If not, follow the directions on the LCD screen.
