•
Make sure that the sealing lip of the Vacuum lifter EP lays completely and correct on the stone slab. Make sure that it doesn’t
twist.
Picture 6.2
– Vacuum lifter EP
•
Push the blue ring of the hand slide valves [A2] on the right. The warning device gives off a sound warning signal and the red
lamp [B2] lights. The operator is thereby warned that the necessary vacuum of -0,8 bar is not available. If the vacuum lifter is
already in use, a residual vacuum is still available in the safety tank [C2]. If the warning device, the warning signal and the red
lamp [B2] are not activated, it is possible that the necessary vacuum is still available at the moment.
•
Activate now the pneumatic cylinder by pulling out to the right the handle [D2] of the piston and by retracting again to the left.
Repeat the procedure till the Vacuum gauge [E2] shows a vacuum of -0,8 bar.
•
At a vacuum pressure of -0,8 bar the red lamp [B2] and the sound warning signal will stop.
•
Make sure that there’s no vacuum loss. It’s important that the indicator on the vacuum gauge doesn’t move [E2] . If losing
vacuum, the stone slab can’t be transported. The sealing lip and the contact area must be checked and the vacuum has to be
produced again. If the condition occurs again have the lifter checked by a technician.
•
Now connect the Vacuum lifter EP by means of the eye [F2] to the lifting equipment.
•
Make sure that the lifting tackle and the lifting equipment have the necessary load capacity to carry and transport the gross
lifting weight. Don’t exceed the admissible load capacity of your lifting equipment (see the technical data in chapter 4.6! .
•
Lift the vacuum lifter EP by means of the lifting equipment until the stone slab is hanging.
•
Make sure that the stone slab is hanging horizontally if it’s possible. In case of inclination the stone slab must be appropriately
placed, otherwise it may come loose from the Vacuum lifter EP!
•
Now you can lift the stone slab to the travelling height.
•
Make sure that whilst transporting there are no vibrations and that the stone slab does not swing.
Attention danger!
If during the transport the sound warning signal sounds or the red lamp [B, Picture2] lights, you have to
take the stone slab off immediately!
In case of emergency the vacuum can be quickly produced again by operating the pneumatic cylinder, to
avoid a dangerous occurrence!
•
Make sure that the area, on which the stone slab is placed, has enough load capacity!
•
When the stone slab is in position and fastened, push the blue ring of the hand slide valve [A2] to the left. The vacuum
chamber will be ventilated and the vacuum safety tank [C2] will retain the vacuum.
•
Now you can remove the vacuum lifter EP from the stone slab.
Vacuum lifter EP 800:
•
The vacuum lifter EP 800 may be placed only in vertical, erect position on the standing stone slab. Attention: max. admissible
load capacity in this application case is 600 kg!
•
In this application case you can use the appropriate eye [Picture 6.2; G2]. This second eye is available only on the Vacuum
lifter EP 800.
