Operating for devices with automatic release
•
The device is connected to the lifting equipment/carrier (e.g. excavator).
•
Before lifting the device, the gripping range has to be adjusted.
•
The device is placed over the product, set down, the device closes round the product and it can be lifted.
•
Set down on the ground again, the device opens automatically, the automatic release locks it into
position so that the device can be lifted without closing up.
•
Placed over the next product, the automatic release disengages itself and the product can be lifted.
The device therefore is a ONE-MAN-MACHINE.
Shut-down the device without lifting equipment/carrier only on even ground. The gripping arms must be
opened enough, to ensure a secure standing of the device. Otherwise there is a danger of overturning!
