1. INTRODUCTION
The FIPALIFT Smart tube lier is a liing device whose liing force and moon are based on vacuum.
The device can be adapted to a variety of applicaons. Consequently it is possible to li various
objects, such as sheet metal, wooden panels, glass panels, doors, windows, crates, boxes, sacks,
barrels and drums. Any applicaon is possible.
The FIPALIFT Smart tube lier has been developed to be ergonomic and uid to work with, allowing
you to easily li and move heavy loads. It is extremely me-ecient in that a drawn out process to
secure the load is not necessary.
The operang manual contains a descripon of the safety rules, installaon, operaon, maintenance
and troubleshoong as well as the technical data. Special versions of the FIPALIFT Smart tube lier
are not described. Informaon about these products can be obtained from our Technical Sales
Department (+49 89 962489-0).
The device supplied may only be used for liing objects for which it is designed in accordance with
your enquiry and order conrmaon. If you intend to use the liing equipment for other objects,
please contact our Technical Sales Department.
Peripheral systems installed alongside the FIPALIFT Smart tube lier are not described in these
operang instrucons. Please take note of the separate descripons for these system parts.
FIPA is constantly striving to develop and improve the design and construcon of its liing
equipment. Therefore FIPA reserves the right to make modicaons to the design and technical
conguraon without noce.
All informaon in these operang instrucons corresponds to the features at the me of publicaon.
Prinng errors are possible.

The design and construcon of the tube lier may not be modied under any circum-
stances without approval from FIPA GmbH. Only original FIPA accessories and spare parts
may be used. Unapproved modicaons and/or the use of third party accessories and
spare parts can cause severe bodily injury during the liing process and will result in the
warranty being voided.

2. SAFETY
Read these operang instrucons carefully before inial commissioning and note the following
safety rules. The FIPALIFT Smart tube lier may only be operated and maintained by personnel
who have read these operang instrucons and fully understand the content. Display the operang
instrucons near the tube lier so as to be easily accessible and make operators aware of them.
Safety regulaons
> The unit may not be operated or maintained by persons under the inuence of alcohol,
medicaons aecng awareness, such as sleeping tablets or strong painkillers or other drugs.
Other condions such as circulatory problems or dizziness are criteria that disqualify persons
from operang this system.
> It is within the operator's scope of responsibility to ensure that no physical injury can arise
during work.
> Wear safety boots during operaon.
> When working with the tube lier, never allow yourself to be distracted and never distract
the operator. Lapses of concentraon lead to accidents.
> Do not work with loads that are heavier than the design of the device allows.
> Only use the tube lier to li loads that are packaged so that they cannot come apart when
lied.
> Do not place the vacuum cup on surfaces with loose areas, such as address labels or covers
that could come loose.
> Do not place the vacuum cup on surfaces that are so slippery that the load could slide o the
vacuum cup (slip eect).
> Take parcular care when handling objects with sharp edges, such as sheet metal.
> Never use the FIPALIFT Smart tube lier to li loads that contain hazardous or explosive sub-
stances. IEnsure beforehand that work can be undertaken safely.
> Posion the vacuum cup vercally above the centre of gravity of the object to be lied.
> The tube lier with a lied load may only be operated so that if the load were to fall, it would
not cause injury to persons.
> Never move lied loads over persons. Persons may not stand below the lied load.
> Do not set down the lied load if doing so would cause injury to persons or damage to objects.
> The vacuum cup may not be aached to people or animals.
> Never li objects for longer than 60 seconds with the tube lier's vacuum cup. Doing so
causes the vacuum pump to overheat and may cause damage and/or impair its funcon (this
does not apply to tube liers that are operated with a mul-chamber ejector).
> Never manually manipulate the tube lier when raising or lowering.
> Always adjust the balancing height according to the load.
> A lied load may not be le unaended.
> The standard tube lier may not be operated in a potenally explosive environment. Electrical
and mechanical components can produce sparks that can ignite vapours. A specially modied
device is required for this kind of applicaon. Please contact our Technical Sales Department.

4. INSTALLATION AND COMMISSIONING
Ensure that the delivered tube lier matches the delivery note. If any parts are missing, please
contact our Technical Sales Department. Many problems during installaon and the test run can be
avoided if this manual is read thoroughly before installaon. For safety reasons, it is imperave to
have detailed knowledge about the equipment. The FIPALIFT Smart tube lier is used together with
an electrical vacuum pump (or side channel blower) or with a pneumac pump (mul-chamber
ejector according to the Venturi principle). Strictly observe the instrucons for the pumps.
Safety instrucons for installaon
> The employee responsible for installaon of the FIPALIFT Smart tube lier must ensure that
the suspension structure (e.g. the FIPA crane system or the FIPA jib crane or similar) is of su-
cient size to hold the dead weight of the tube lier including maximum load plus an adequate
safety factor.
> The electrical installaon must be undertaken by a qualied electrician.
Installaon of the tube lier
> The liing unit is fastened to the suspension eye. Make sure that the fastening elements are of
sucient size and adequately secured if necessary.
> Once the liing unit has been mounted, the vacuum cup should be 100 mm above the oor.
If the vacuum cup is closer to the oor, the tube should be shortened or the suspension sys-
tem moved higher. If the vacuum cup is further from the oor, the tube must be extended or
the suspension system lowered.
Ensure that the tube lier can be reached by operang personnel even at its highest posion and
that the desired operang height is achieved. If this is not the case, the length of the liing tube
must be adjusted and/or the height of the suspension.
Instrucons for shortening the liing tube
Remove the protecve coang from the control unit, remove the black tape and unscrew the liing
tube from the plasc adapter. Measure out the length of the liing tube by which it needs to be
shortened in order to make the FIPALIFT Smart tube lier the correct height above the oor.

FIPALIFT Smart
Step 1: Cut the liing tube to length and cut away the wire coil.
Step 2: Cut away any excess material and orange-coloured adhesive tape. If you proceed as shown in
the gure, the wire coil will not come away from the material.
Step 3: Remove about 20 mm of orange-coloured adhesive tape from the wire coil.
Step 4: Remove about 2 turns of the white cord from the cut ends.
Step 5: Screw the liing tube back onto the plasc adapter.
Step 6: Then wind reinforced adhesive tape (FIPA item number SH.SPP.ALL.0034) around the liing
tube and the plasc adapter. The adhesive tape must be ghtly tensioned.
Step 7: Pull the protecve cover back over the tube.
Selecng the vacuum pump
The selecon is highly dependent on the consistency of the load to be lied; liing trials may be
required. For the correct design, please contact our Technical Sales Department (+49 89 962489-0).
The pumps are not included in the delivery and must be ordered separately.
The following pumps are available from FIPA and are approved for the FIPALIFT Smart tube lier:

Installaon of the electrical vacuum pump
> The vacuum pump must be posioned as close as possible to the liing unit in order to keep
the length of the vacuum hose as short as possible. If the FIPALIFT Smart tube lier is intended
to li loads as quickly as possible, it is especially important that the vacuum hose between the
vacuum pump and the liing unit is not too long. A longer vacuum hose reduces the possibili-
es of the liing unit ulising the full capacity of the vacuum pump. It is recommended that
the hose between vacuum pump and liing unit is not longer than 30 m. If a longer hose is
necessary, please contact our Technical Sales Department.
