Install vacuum pump
1. Mount the vacuum pump in a suitable position
(a). Only use the eyebolt for lifting.
2 Installation
This chapter presents how to install the lifter and adjust the load balance before first use. Plan the
dimensions of the crane system or jib crane so that you can work with the vacuum lifter over the whole
handling area. Remember that a jib crane is more effective if the lifting equipment is more often used at
the outer part of the jib arm.

3. Connect the vacuum pump power supply (c).
A motor circuit breaker with hold circuit relay
must be fitted and set to the nominal current
shown on the motor serial plate (d; next page).
TAWI recommends using protection degree
IP54 for the breaker and cables. Installation may
only be carried out by an authorised electrician.
2. Make sure to install the pump so that it is pro-
vided with sufficient air flow (A > 100 mm) (b).
