Place the power switch in the OFF ( ) position, as shown
(power indicator light turns off).
Caution: Do not set lifter against any surfaces which
could soil or damage vacuum pads.
A control handle can be used to support an unloaded lifter when not
suspended from a crane, as shown: Make sure the lifter leans securely against
an appropriate support; then detach the hoisting equipment hook from the lift
spool.
If the lifter is transported to another location, use the original shipping
container and secure the lifter so as to protect the vacuum pads and all other
components from damage.
Storing the Lifter
1) Use the covers supplied to keep the vacuum pads clean, as shown.
!!–CE–!! The lifter is designed to rest on relatively horizontal surfaces without tipping over. To
store the lifter in this way, set the lifter with the pads facing downward on a clean, smooth, flat
surface. Then lower the lift bar to a horizontal orientation and place a support under the lift
spool.
2) Charge the battery completely when placing it in storage and at six-month intervals thereafter
(see MAINTENANCE: B
ATTERY

ECHARGE
).
3) Disconnect the electrical connectors, as shown, in
order to minimize battery drainage.
4) Store the battery at temperatures between 32° and
70° Fahrenheit [between 0° and 21° Celsius].
Note: Storage at temperatures above 100° Fahrenheit
[38° Celsius] should be avoided.
