Important information
You will find more detailed information about the use of the vacuum pump in the separate
enclosed operating instructions for oil-free vacuum pumps.
Installation of the vacuum traverse
>
The vacuum traverse is attached to the suspension or fastening eye. Esure that the
fastening elements are of sufficient size and adequately secured if necessary.
>
The vacuum traverse should settle horizontally in the lifted position.
If this is not the case, it can be balanced using the adjustable cross beams.
Ensure that the load on the vacuum traverse is only lifted as high as is necessary. The operating
elements must still be able to be operated in the highest position.
Test operation and initial acceptance
>
Lift a load with a surface that is fully impermeable to air. Leave the load suspended on the
crane and monitor the entire unit for hissing sounds to ensure that no vacuum leaks have
occurred during installation.
>
Lift a load with a surface which is fully impermeable to air and which has the maximum
permitted weight for this model. See the "Troubleshooting" section if the load cannot be lifted.
The system must only be started after a qualified electrician or electrically qualified
person has installed a safety device to the motor.
If no safety device is installed on the motor there is a risk of fire!
