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 14: Indirect Loading
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. PT-10TAC: #35142... -
Page 15: 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 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;... -

OPERATION TTACH THE ADS TO A Generating Airflow Place the power switch in the “on” position ( ), to engage the vacuum pump. Keep pump running throughout lift. The lifter is designed for the vacuum pump to run continuously. Placing the power switch in the “off” position ( ) during lifter operation could result in a load release and personal injury (see “In Case of a Power... -
Page 18: Reading The Vacuum Gauge
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”), it may not be able to maintain sufficient vacuum for lifting. Contact WPG for more information. PT-10TAC: #35142... -
Page 19: Ift And Ove The Oad
OPERATION IFT AND OVE THE Lift bar must be vertical to lift load. Interpreting the Lift Light When vacuum is sufficient vacuum Never lift load unless lift light is to lift the Maximum Load Capacity, illuminated, because premature lifting the vacuum lift light turns on could result in load release and personal injury. -
Page 20: 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 21: T O Tilt The Load
OPERATION ILT THE Make sure load is positioned correctly on lifter (as previously directed). Caution: Unbalanced loads can interfere with the lifter’s tilt capability. 1) Make sure the load has enough clearance to tilt without contacting anyone or anything. 2) Use the tilt toggle switch on the movable control pendant to tilt the load as required: •... -

Continue to hold the release button Do not move lifter until pads release until the vacuum pads release the... -
Page 23: Storing The Lifter
OPERATION Note: Parking feet (circled) on the pad frame can be used to support an unloaded lifter when not suspended. Make sure the lifter leans securely against an appropriate support that does not contact the vacuum pads. Storing the Lifter Disconnect the electrical connectors (figs. -
Page 24: Inspections And Tests

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 28: Maintenance
MAINTENANCE Note: Refer to SERVICE MANUAL #35275 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. -
Page 29: 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. Rev 16.0/11-23... -
