PT10 Powered Tilt Function
A popular choice for stone handling, Powr-Grip’s PT10 Series vacuum lifters allow you to handle loads up to 1,500 lbs (680 kg) with the convenience of effortless powered motion.Using the PT10’s powered tilt function is easy, too. When the load is in the upright position, just move the tilt toggle switch upward. This will move the load toward the flat position. From the flat position, move the tilt toggle switch downward and the load will move toward the upright position. Just let go of the switch to stop the load’s motion at any angle along the 90° tilt range—even when heavy loads are attached. This allows you to easily transfer loads from upright racks to horizontal processing machinery.Contact you WPG sales representative to learn more about PT Series lifters. View Product Page

Attaching to the Load
Read and understand the equipment manual before use. Review the adjustable telescoping pad shafts procedure prior to attaching the load. Ensure all pad shutoff valves are in the OFF position, then press Attach. Examples in the video indicate when pad valves are turned to the ON position to create vacuum between the pads and the load. Press the pad adjustment button and move the shaft until the pad makes contact with the load. Turn the pad valve to the ON position to create vacuum and begin sealing. Continue pressing the pad adjustment button until the pad is fully seated against the load. Use the pad adjustment knob for fine adjustments until the pad adjustment button releases. Once all pads are attached, verify that the green lift light is illuminated, indicating sufficient vacuum for lifting. A strobe light indicates a vacuum leak.
