Model Number: MRPT89ACO Description: Designed for use with a crane or other hoisting equipment, the MRPT89ACO lifters employ vacuum to hold a load for lifting, and they provide manual 360° rotation and powered 90° tilt movements for load manipulation. Power Source: See serial number plate for specific AC voltage, frequency and amperage.

Attach the hoisting equipment hook to the lift bail and use the hoisting equipment to raise the lifter out of the shipping container. Be careful to avoid damaging any vacuum pads. WARNING: Hoisting equipment hook must be fitted with restraining latch to prevent lift bail from slipping off under any circumstances. Rev 16.0/2-18 MRPT89ACO: #35061...

Lifters that feature concave vacuum pads can also attach to some kinds of curved loads. Since curvature affects the lifting capacity, contact Wood’s Powr-Grip for help in determining the Load Capacity for a particular curved load. Rev 16.0/2-18 MRPT89ACO: #35061...

Certain load materials are too rough or porous to allow the lifter to form a seal which can be maintained for 5 minutes without power. However, in geographical locations where CE Standards do not apply, it may be possible to use the lifter to lift such loads. Contact Wood’s Powr-Grip for more information.

). If a power failure occurs, keep all personnel clear of the suspended load until it can safely be placed on the ground or a stable support. Correct any deficiency before resuming normal operation of the lifter. Rev 16.0/2-18 MRPT89ACO: #35061...

90° range of tilt movement. The controller’s power switch controls the power supply to the actuator motor and brake, as well as the controller; consequently, powered tilt only functions when the controller power is engaged. Rev 16.0/2-18 MRPT89ACO: #35061...

Avoid placing the lifter in this position; or if this is unavoidable, place a support under the lift bar. Also be sure to provide manual assistance to the tilt actuator when raising the lift bar to the vertical position (see ASSEMBLY). Rev 16.0/2-18 MRPT89ACO: #35061...

• Keep a written record of all Periodic Inspections. If any deficiency is detected during the inspection, correct it before using the lifter. If necessary, return the lifter to Wood’s Powr-Grip or an authorized dealer for repair (see LIMITED WARRANTY). Rev 16.0/2-18 MRPT89ACO: #35061...

Note: See MAINTENANCE topics to follow for additional directions about inspecting and testing specific lifter components. ASME Standard B30.20 requires the lifter to be tested to 125% of its Load Capacity. Flat Lifters are exempt from this requirement. Rev 16.0/2-18 MRPT89ACO: #35061...

If these cleaning methods are not successful, contact Wood’s Powr-Grip or an authorized dealer for assistance. Any test material used must be fully and independently supported, and capable of bearing the lifter’s weight. Do not use the lifter to lift the test material during the vacuum test.

The speed controller's internal settings for minimum and maximum motor speeds, acceleration and deceleration rates, and motor torque are preset and should not need adjustment. If any of these settings needs adjustment, contact Wood's Powr-Grip for instructions. “Tilt cycle” indicates full 90° travel in both directions. Rev 16.0/2-18 MRPT89ACO: #35061...

• Speed controller may be shorted or defective. • Speed controller's potentiometer may be defective. If actuator moves excessively fast during retraction stroke under heavy loads, regardless of speed controller setting: • External speed limiting resistor may be defective or disconnected.
