Note: Primarily, these are instructions for assembly. They are not
intended to address vacuum lifter safety, maintenance or power
system operation. Only operational information about the lift bar
and lift frame is included in these CONVERSION INSTRUCTIONS.
If you do not already have OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS for the
model of lifter you are assembling, be sure to obtain the correct OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
from www.wpg.com, your dealer or Powr-Grip Technical Service.

ASSEMBLY
1) Remove all lifter restraints and save them with the shipping container(s) for future use.
2) Select hoisting equipment (crane and hoist, when applicable) rated to carry the
Maximum Load Capacity plus the Lifter Weight for the model you are assembling (see
“SPECIFICATIONS” on page 2).
Note: Any application of the lifter must conform toall statutory or regulatory standards
that relate to the hoisting equipment when used in its geographical location.
TOASSEMBLE OR DISASSEMBLE P1-04DC(3) LIFTER
1)
1A
Adjust the lift point to optimize the lifter's
hang angle:
1.1) Remove the retaining bolt and loosen the
pivot bolt (fig. 1A).
1.2) Move the lift point to the appropriate
position.1
1.3) Reinstall the retaining bolt and tighten
both bolts securely.
2)
2A 2B
Attach the hoisting hook to the lift point (fig.
2A).
Make sure hook has restraining
latch (see arrow in fig. 2B).
2C
Use rigging (fig. 2C) as needed to make sure the hook does not
interfere with the load.
Only use rigging rated for Maximum Load Capacity plus
Lifter Weight.
1..... Moving the lift point forward (away from operator) helps keep the hang angle vertical while the lifter is loaded; moving the lift point rearward
(towards operator) helps keep the hang angle vertical while the lifter is unloaded.

Rev 4.0/7-20 P1/P2 Conversion: #351167
3) Remove the pad channel from the shipping container, being careful to avoid damage to
any vacuum pads. Position the pad channel on a clean, flat surface.
4)
4A
Use the hoisting
equipment to position
the lift bar between the
rails of the pad frame
(fig. 4A).

5) Attach the lift bar to the pad frame:
5.1) Align the mounting holes on the lift bar with those in the pad frame (fig. 4A).
5.2) Insert the tilt pin through the mounting holes, underneath the vacuum hoses and
wiring (fig. 4B).
Caution: To avoid damage, do not place tilt pin on top of vacuum hoses or wiring.
5.3) Secure the tilt pin using the hardware supplied (figs. 4C-D).
Note: Flat washers should be located outside of the pad frame.
Caution: Replace cotter pin each time it is used.

on the pad frame using the hardware
supplied.
6B
Lower the lift bar, to make sure the tilt latch
engages correctly (fig. 6B).

as needed to make
sure the hook does
not interfere with
the load.
Only use
rigging
rated for
Maximum Load
Capacity plus
Lifter Weight.

channels on a clean, flat
surface (fig. 2A).
3)
3A
Use the hoisting
equipment to position
the lift frame between
the rails of the pad
frames (fig. 3A).

4) Attach the lift frame to the pad frames:
4.1) Align the mounting holes on the lift frame with those in the pad frames (fig. 4A).
4.2) Insert a tilt pin through the holes in one pad frame, underneath the vacuum hoses
and wiring (fig. 4B).
Caution: To avoid damage, do not place tilt pin on top of vacuum hoses or wiring.
4.3)

the vacuum pads. Remove the pad covers (fig. 1A) and save
them for future use.
2B2A
2)
2C 2D

TOROTATE THE LOAD USING AP1 LIFTER
Make sure load is positioned correctly on lifter (as directed in
the lifter’s OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS).
Never disengage rotation and tilt latches at the same time,
because this could result in load damage or personal injury.
1)
2A
3A
Make sure the load has
enough clearance to rotate
without contacting anyone
or anything.
2) Use a control handle
(circled in fig. 2A) to keep
the load under control at
all times.
Unbalanced
loads may rotate
unexpectedly when
latch is disengaged.
3) Pull the rotation release
lever (fig. 3A) to disengage
the rotation latch, and
rotate the load as required.
4) To stop rotation, let go of
the lever and guide the
load to the next stop.
Note: Whenever rotation is not
required, keep the rotation latch
engaged, to prevent load damage
or personal injury.
OPERATION

Make sure load is positioned correctly on lifter (as directed
in the lifter’s OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS).
Never disengage rotation and tilt latches at the same time,
