Adjustment of the height-adjustable support
The height-adjustable support is adjusted as follows:
•
Pull the cotter pin (3) upwards and turn it by 180°.
•
Move the rectangular tube (4) until the correct immersion depth is set. Pull the cotter pin (3) upwards again and
turn it by 180°.
•
Push the rectangular tube (4) back and forth until the spring bolt (3) engages in the corresponding hole.
The height-adjustable support must always be set so that the gripping jaws always grip the concrete
pipe below the largest pipe diameter, otherwise there is a danger of slipping!!

Device operation
•
- Attach the device (RG-8/40) to the carrier/hoist using the suspension eye.
•
- Adjust the opening width/gripping range and height-adjustable support according to the material to be gripped
(concrete pipe).
•
- Position the implement (RG-8/40) above the material to be gripped and lower it until the support rests on it.
•
- As soon as the implement is completely lowered, the automatic changeover unlocks and closes during the
subsequent lifting.
•
- Transport the material to be gripped (concrete pipe) to the determination position.
•
- Lower the implement (RG-8/40). The automatic change-over switches to locking when the load is relieved, whereby
the device can be lifted again.
Goods to be gripped (concrete pipes) must always be gripped below the largest pipe diameter, otherwise
there is a danger of slipping!
