U02

“Turn off? Let go of buttons”

(none)

(possi-

ble)

Use only “function” button and “power” button to power 
down lifter. Lifter cannot be powered down while any 
other button is pressed.

U03

“Timed release: # seconds”

1 chirp per 

button press

on

Timed release function is activated for number of seconds 
shown (see 

“T

). Press 

“function” button to cancel action or press “attach” button 
to override. No corrective action is necessary.

U04

“Also hold [Fn] to release”

(none)

(none)

Hold “function” button and “release” button at same time 
to release load.

U06

“Let go of [Fn] and Release”

(none)

on

Use only “attach” button to attach load. While “attach” 
button is pressed, lifter does not respond to pressing any 
other button. Release all buttons and press button(s) again 
to activate different function.

U08

“Menu not available in Attach”

(none)

(none)

Operator Menus cannot be accessed while lifter is 
attached to load.

U09

“Counterweight not retracted”

continuous

on

“Release” function is prevented because counterweight is 
not positioned correctly. Reposition counterweight as 
directed (see Counter-Balancer 

OPERATING 

INSTRUCTIONS, 

if necessary).

U10

“Use POWER button for Live 
Stats”

(none)

(none)

“Power” button (not “function” button) is now used to 
access Live Stats. No corrective action is necessary.

U11

“Testing battery - wait to 
attach”

(none)

(none)

“Attach” function is prevented because battery test is in 
progress. Wait until vacuum pump stops running and try 
again.

V000

“INSUFFICIENT VACUUM!”

continuous

on

Immediately lower load onto stable support until adequate 
vacuum can be obtained. Check load and vacuum pads for 
damage. Consult relevant topics in “ASSEMBLY”, 
“OPERATION”, “INSPECTIONS AND TESTS”, and 
“MAINTENANCE”.

“INSUFFICIENT VACUUM #!”

(# indicates relevant vacuum 
circuit)

continuous

on

Immediately lower load onto stable support until adequate 
vacuum can be obtained in vacuum circuit indicated. Check 
load and vacuum pads for damage. Consult relevant topics 
in “ASSEMBLY”, “OPERATION”, “INSPECTIONS AND TESTS”, 
and “MAINTENANCE”.
This code can be activated in connection with Code N00.

“Vacuum decrease on circuit #”

(# indicates relevant vacuum 
circuit)

3 chirps

(none)

Vacuum decreased at greater rate than expected in 
circuit(s) indicated. Possible causes include bouncing or 
landing load, as well as use on rough or porous loads and 
other sources of vacuum leaks. Consult relevant topics in 
“ASSEMBLY”, “OPERATION”, “INSPECTIONS AND TESTS”, 
and “MAINTENANCE” to eliminate leaks when possible. 
When appropriate, you can also adjust sensitivity to 
vacuum level reductions (see “INTELLI-GRIP

“Vacuum not increasing 
normally”

1 chirp every 

2 seconds

on

Although lifter began to attach, vacuum level did not 
increase at normal rate. Make sure all vacuum pads seal 
securely (see 

“Sealing the Pads on the Load”

 and 

“Reading 

the Vacuum Gauges”

).  This Code can be activated by use 

at high elevation. If so, contact WPG for directions.
