FIPA Spider vacuum traverse

1. INTRODUCTION
The FIPA Spider vacuum traverse is a load handling device whose holding force is based on vacuum.
The device can be adapted to a variety of applications. Consequently, it is possible to lift large
surface-area objects, such as sheet metal plates, wooden panels, glass panels, doors and windows.
The FIPA Spider vacuum traverse has been developed to be ergonomic and smooth to work with,
allowing you to lift and move heavy loads with ease.
The vacuum traverse is extremely time-efficient since a protracted process to secure the load is not
necessary.
The operating manual contains a description of the safety regulations, installation, operation,
maintenance and troubleshooting as well as the technical data.
Special versions of the FIPA Spider vacuum traverse are not described.
Information about these products can be obtained from our Technical Team (+49 89 962489-0).
The device supplied may only be used for lifting objects for which it is designed, in accordance with
your enquiry and order confirmation. If you intend to use the FIPA Spider vacuum traverse for other
items, please contact our Technical Team.
Peripheral systems, installed alongside the FIPA Spider vacuum traverse, are not described in these
operating instructions. Please take note of the separate individual descriptions for these system parts.
FIPA is constantly striving to develop and improve the design and construction of its load-handling
and lifting equipment.
FIPA therefore reserves the right to make modifications to the design and technical configuration
without prior notice. All information in these operating instructions corresponds to the features at
the time of publication. Printing errors are possible.
