Maintenance Tips
- Inspect suction pads before each use for cuts, cracks, wear, or contamination that could affect vacuum performance.
- Keep all vacuum pads, filters, and sealing surfaces clean and free from dust, oil, and debris to maintain maximum lifting capacity.
- Test both independent vacuum circuits and verify audio/visual warning systems are functioning properly before operation.
- Monitor battery charge levels and fully recharge batteries after use to ensure reliable lifting performance.
- Regularly inspect hoses, fittings, and vacuum lines for leaks, damage, or loose connections.
- Check extension arms, rotation mechanisms, and tilting components for smooth operation and signs of wear.
- Lubricate moving joints and pivot points according to manufacturer recommendations to reduce wear.
- Never exceed the rated working load limit of 500 kg horizontal or 400 kg vertical lifting.
- Inspect electrical wiring, battery terminals, and charging equipment for corrosion or damage before use.
- Store the lifter indoors in a clean, dry environment and protect suction pads from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Perform routine safety inspections on lifting points, frame components, and vacuum systems, replacing worn parts immediately.
- Verify automatic vacuum pumping functionality before handling glass or other non-porous materials.
