1.10 Equipment for
Personal
Protection
Wear safety shoes when operating the device.
Before transporting dangerous goods the appropriate safety clothes have to be
put on.
1.11 Behaviour in
Emergencies
As an example sudden power failure is an emergency (the device switches off
invariably!).
Turn the control handle fully to position "Lift". The operating unit lowers itself slowly
with the load.
1.12 Checking the
Guards
A non-return valve is mounted inside the rotary suction fitting. It prevents the load
from dropping off the vacuum head if there is a sudden power failure.
Check the function of this non-return valve at the beginning of each shift (when
operating in shifts) or once a week (when operating continually).
During the check stay outside the dangerous area.
When power fails, immediately put the load down if possible. If this is not possible,
immediately leave the dangerous area near the load.
Checking:
Switch on the lifting device.
Lift a load and turn the control handle fully to position "Lift".
Switch off the lifting device. The device must lower itself slowly with the load.
The load must not drop off at once.
Correct faults before operating the device. If faults occur during operation, switch
the device off and correct the faults before continuing work with the device.
