 Powermatsusedintandemdoublestheliftpotential.Stabilityoftheliftingoperation

 shouldbemonitoredthroughout.

• Do not stack powermats.

• InsertthePowermatwellundertheloadtoachievestabilityandmaximum 

 surfacecontact.

CAUTIONS:

• Avoidcontactwithsharporjaggedsurfacesastheymay

puncturethesurfacecausingthePowermattofail.

• Hotexhaustsshouldbecoveredwithafoldedﬁreand

heatresistantblanket.Failuretodosomaydamagethesurfaceofthe 

Powermat.

• Takeallthenormalprecautionsagainstthedangerof

outbreakofﬁre,suchaslayingoutchargedlineofhoseorfoambranch

as appropriate.

WARNING: Withanyliftingoperation,safetysupportstructuresareessential.Carrying

 outworkunderaloadsupportedonlybyaninﬂatedairbagisextremely 

 dangerousandiscontrarytoallsafetyguidelinesandinstructions.

1. ConnectthedeliveryhosesbetweenthePowermatsandcontroller. 

 Ensuredeliveryhosesarewelllaidoutandnot‘kinked’,maintaininga

clear line to respective Powermats.

2. Connecthigh-pressurehosefromcylindertocentreportonrearof

 controller(Max.controllerinletpressureis300bar).

CAUTION:Ensurecontrollerleversarein‘o’positionbeforeopeningairsupply.

3. Commenceinﬂationbymovingcontrollever(s)toinﬂateposition.When 

 therequiredheightormaximumoperatingpressureof12barisreached, 

 releasetheinﬂationlever.WhenusingtwoormorePowermats,  

 balanceairinputbyattentiontocontrollergauges.

4. Onceinﬂated,donotattempttodisconnectthehosecouplingsfromthe 

 Powermats.DoingthiswillcausethePowermatstodeﬂateuncontrollably.

5. Packandblockasliftproceeds,takingcaretoseeblocksareplacedso 

 that,ifnecessary,theycansupporttheload.

Disconnectbymeansofcylinderadaptorhandwheelandreconnectto 

chargedcylinder.

7. Afteruse,deﬂatebyselectingrelevantpositionofcontrollever.Deﬂationis

 thereverseoftheinﬂateprocedure.

ThefollowingMaintenanceandTestProceduresshouldbeobserved,andcarriedoutby

properlyqualiﬁedpersonnel.

Periodic Testing / After Operational Use

 1. WashdownPowermatsurfacethoroughlywithwarmsoapywater.

 2. ExaminesurfaceareathoroughlybeforeInitiallyinﬂatingthePowermatto 

  0.5bar.Carryoutafurtherthoroughexaminationandmarkoanycuts 

  orabrasionswithchalk.Increasethepressureto2.4bar(35psi)andrepeat

  thevisualcheck.Allowtostandfor3minutes.

 3. Examinemarkedareasandlookforanyfurthercuts,abrasions,andany 

  obviousdeformityoftheinﬂatedcushion.Ifthereisevidenceofany

  damageordeformity,thepowermatshouldbewithdrawnfromservice. 

  Itcanthenbereturnedtothesupplierforexpertexaminationifrequired.

 4. Shallowsurfacecutsorabrasionsshouldnotaecttheefﬁciencyofthe 

  Powermat.Inthecaseofholesorcuts,throughwhichtheinnerfabric

  isvisible,theairbagsshouldbewithdrawnfromoperation.IfaPowermat

  leaks,itisNOTrepairable.Iftheuserisuncertainabouttheconditionofa

  damagedPowermat,itshouldbereturnedtothesupplierforexpert

examination.

 5. InﬂatethePowermatto4bar(58psi)maximumandchecktheinlet 

  couplingwithsoapywater.Thoroughlywipedrybeforereturningto

  storage.

Delivery Hoses

Periodicallyorafteroperationaluse,checkforabrasionmarks.Chargehosetoworking

pressurewithhosedisconnectedfromPowermat,usesoapywatertocheckairholding

integrityofconnections.Tightenlooseﬁttingswherenecessary.
