Maintenance Tips

• Inspect Vacuum Pads Daily:
  Check the vacuum pads for cracks, wear, or contamination. Clean them with a soft cloth and mild cleaner to maintain a strong seal and safe lifting performance.

• Check Seals and Hoses:
  Regularly inspect all seals, gaskets, and vacuum hoses for leaks or deterioration. Replace immediately if any are damaged to avoid vacuum loss during operation.

• Lubricate Moving Parts:
  Apply appropriate lubricant to mechanical joints and moving components as specified in the user manual to prevent rust and ensure smooth operation.

• Test Vacuum Function Before Use:
  Always perform a vacuum pressure check before lifting materials. Ensure the unit builds and holds pressure reliably within the safe operating range.

• Clean Unit After Use:
  Wipe down the lifter with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust, adhesive residue, or debris, especially after working with porous materials like stone or concrete.

• Inspect Frame and Handles:
  Examine the frame and handles for any signs of stress, cracks, or structural wear. Tighten bolts and fasteners to maintain secure operation.

• Follow Load Limits:
  Never exceed the 270 kg (595 lbs) capacity. Overloading can cause mechanical failure and void warranty or safety certifications.

• Store Safely:
  Store the vacuum lifter in a clean, dry area away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Use the original packaging or a protective case if available.
