WARNING: Make sure load is positioned correctly on lifter (see T
O
A
PPLY
);
unbalanced loads may rotate unexpectedly when latch is
disengaged.
Remember that the load is longer in its diagonal dimensions than in its side
dimensions; raise the load high enough to clear any obstacles when
rotating. Keep the load under control at all times, using hand cups or other
appropriate means. Disengaging the pad frame's rotation latch allows the
load to rotate. Pull the cable that hangs from the rotation release lever to
disengage the rotation latch, and rotate the load to the desired position.
To stop the load's motion automatically at each quarter turn, simply let go of
the cable immediately after initiating the rotation, so that the rotation latch
engages at the next stop. Whenever rotation is not required, keep the
rotation latch engaged, to prevent accidental damage to the load and
possible injury to the operator.

WARNING: Load must be fully supported before releasing vacuum pads.
Make sure the load is at rest and fully supported. As a safety precaution, two actions must be
performed to release the pads from the load: The vacuum lift light also functions as a push-
button switch. Press and hold this vacuum control push button throughout the release operation.
At the same time, turn the apply/release switch to the “RELEASE” position (counter-clockwise) to
force air into the vacuum pads, quickly breaking the vacuum seal. Continue to hold the
apply/release switch and the push-button switch until the pads disengage completely from the
load.
9
When the apply/release switch is no longer held in the “RELEASE” position, it automatically
returns to the neutral position. Do not turn the apply/release switch to the “APPLY” position until
the pads are contacting the next load to be lifted. This conserves battery energy and reduces
the time required to apply the pads to the load, by preventing the primary vacuum reserve tank
from losing its vacuum.
9
If the pads do not release fully or they release too slowly, make sure the release mechanism is functioning correctly (see

: Release Function Test).
