6.5 Setting the dynamics of the tube lifter
The dynamics of the tube lifter
Jumbo
can be set with the vacuum regulation valve (VRV). Secondary
air can be introduced into the system by opening the VRV. This reduces the speed of the tube lifter's
upward movement.
Opening the VRV throttles the flow rate in the tube lifter. If the flow rate is reduced too much, it will
become difficult to lift porous loads.
CAUTION
Danger due to unpredictable gripper behavior
Adjusting the VRV alters the behavior of the tube lifter. The tube lifter
can spring upwards when applying suction or may no longer be able to
hold the load securely; people may be hit and could injure themselves.
►
Check settings before operation.
►
Avoid unintentional adjustments.
6.6 Integrated quick-change adapter
– replacing the suction pads
CAUTION
Risk of injury! If the suction pad is not securely attached to the
operator handle, it can become detached during operation and
fall.
Falling parts can hit people, crushing limbs or otherwise causing injury.
►
Rotate the suction pad in direction A (counter clockwise). The latching
bolt must lock into place!

as standard. Depending on the task to be performed, different
types of suction pads (1) may be required. These can simply be replaced
on the vacuum connection (2).
When replacing the suction pads, make sure that the pads are secure
and that the safety lever (3) locks into position.
The safety lever (3) is identified with a symbol.
