Lifting, Transport and Installation (hoist operation)

When using the device in hoist operation the safety chain has to be used in any case!
1. Position the device directly above the load. Avoid pulling it diagonally, make
sure the load is evenly distributed.
2. Place the device onto the load.
3. Switch the device on using the main ON / OFF switch.
4. The load is now sucked.
5. Look at the pressure gauge. As soon as a vacuum of -0.5 bar is reached, you can
lift the load. On no account lift it earlier, as the load would fall off.
When lifting, make sure that only one part at a time is being lifted! Carefully
release any bits left hanging on with a screwdriver before lifting the load any
further.
Do not remove any bits with your hands, risk of crushing!
6. Lift the device with the sucked load a little (approx. 20 cm).
7. Put the safety chain A out of the chain box B (see Ill.)
8. Throw the safety chain under the lifted load.
In doing so never reach you hands under the lifted load! Danger of crushing!
9. Firmly mount the safety chain on the other side of the device in the slot C (see Ill.).
10. Place the end of the safety chain in the chain box B.
The safety chain has to fit tightly on the load, to make sure, that the load will be held by the
safety chain in case of vacuum loss or vacuum failure (e.g. caused by energy failure), (see
Ill.).
The load-securing chain should never hang loosely under the load, otherwise the load
could fall down in case of vacuum loss or vacuum failure (e.g. caused by energy failure),
(see Ill.).
11. Now transport the device with the sucked load to the destination point.
12. Carefully lower the load (approx. 20 cm to the ground), unhook the safety chain and pull it out from under the
load.
In doing so never reach you hands under the lifted load! Danger of crushing!
13. Put the load-securing chain back in the chain box.
14. Lower the load and place it on clear, even surfaces, so that the load does not slip or tip.
15. Switch off the diaphragm pump using the main ON / OFF switch.
Caution! Once the machine is switched off, the suction lead is automatically bled and so the vacuum
disappears. Always keep feet well away from the danger area!
