Maintenance Tips

• Inspect vacuum pads before each use for cracks, cuts, wear, or contamination that could reduce suction performance.
• Keep vacuum pads, sealing surfaces, and stone contact areas clean and free of dust, oil, and debris to maintain maximum grip.
• Check hoses, fittings, valves, and air lines regularly for leaks, damage, or loose connections.
• Verify proper operation of the audio and visual low-vacuum alarm system before lifting any load.
• Recharge and maintain the 12V battery according to manufacturer recommendations to ensure uninterrupted alarm protection.
• Inspect the pneumatic tilting mechanism and moving parts for wear, smooth operation, and secure fastening.
• Maintain the recommended compressed air supply pressure of 5 bar (72 psi) and ensure clean, dry air is used.
• Never exceed the rated lifting capacity of 600 kg horizontal or 300 kg vertical lifting.
• Inspect lifting eyes, suspension components, and safety devices regularly for wear, corrosion, or deformation.
• Store the vacuum lifter in a clean, dry environment and protect vacuum pads from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and sharp objects.
• Replace worn vacuum pads, seals, or damaged components immediately to maintain safe lifting performance.
