Introduction
Lifting bags may only be
operated with compressed
air, never with flammable or
aggressive gases. The
lifting bags may only be
filled using original Vetter
fittings. Check the equip-
ment before and after every
use for perfect working
order. Pay attention to DIN
7716 if stored for longer
periods of time. We will be
happy to supply an excerpt
from this standard.
Safety instructions
•
Use only Vetter original
fittings. Only these
fittings have been
tested in the works in

Pressure Vessel
Legislation.
•
Please check the
perfect condition of the
equipment and lifting
bags before and after
use.
•
Insert lifting bags at
suitable points so that at

surface is beneath the
load.

Avoid angles larger than
30° (relationship
between base and load

parallel base to the load
to be lifted whenever

substructure.
•
Never place more than
two bags on top of one
