General
•
The load (stone slabs) which is to be sucked and
transported, must have sufficient inherent stability,
otherwise there is risk of breakage when lifting!
•
Stone slabs must not be bend when lifting - especially take
care with thin and large-sized stone slabs!
•
Generally, the load (stones slab) is only to be sucked in the
middle, otherwise the load hangs diagonally under the
device which may cause a breaking of the load - especially
when lifting large stone slabs with a small suction plate.
•
Standard suction plates are not suitable for the transport of
glass plates!
Prior to every operation the user must ensure that:
•
The equipment is suited to the intended operation, the functioning and the working condition of the
equipment is examined, and the load is suitable to be handled.
Any doubts about instructions should be raised with the manufacturer prior to use.
Only suction plates of the manufacturer PROBST shall be used, which shows doubtless a maximum load
capacity at a pressure of - 0.4 bar (- 5.8 psi) at the carrying capacity sticker. In unclear circumstances the
vacuum device and the suction plate may not be put into operation. The manufacturer must be contacted!
•
Some suction plates which can be mounted to the device will reduce its carrying capacity.
The maximum load is indicated on each suction plate.
•
Use only suction plates which are approved for this device!
•
Do not exceed the maximum carrying capacity of the suction plates!!!
Danger: Load (stone slabs) will fall down!
NOT ALLOWED ACTIVITIES:
Unauthorized alterations of the device and the use of any self-made additional equipment could cause
danger and are therefore forbidden!
Never exceed the carrying capacity/working load limit (WLL) and the nominal width/nominal size of the
device.
All unauthorized transportations with the device are not allowed:
•
Transportation of people and animals.
•
Transportation of other loads and materials than described in this manual.
•
Never suspend any goods with ropes, chains or similar at the device.
