In Case of Power Failure
The lifter is equipped with a vacuum reserve tank, designed to maintain vacuum temporarily in
case of a failure at the lifter's power source.
WARNING: Stay clear of any suspended load in the event of a power failure.
Although the lifter is designed to support the load for at least 5 minutes without power, this
depends on many factors, including the condition of the load and the lifter’s vacuum system (see

). If a power failure occurs, keep all personnel clear of the suspended load until it can
safely be placed on the ground or a stable support. Correct any deficiency before resuming
normal operation of the lifter.
