In addition to the operating instructions, all national, generally applicable, statutory and other binding accident prevention regulations must be observed and...

2.3 Application area With heavy, unstable loads such as overturned buses, it is often not possible to use winches or hydraulic lifting gear due to high pressure point load. With wedge bags buses can be lifted enabling trapped people to be released. Sharp edges should be avoided where possible. ▲ There is a danger of damage to the pressure support V|V cladding. Sharp edged loads can cause dangerous cuts, punctures or abrasions. Wedge Lifting bags meet the requirements specified in DIN EN 13 371 as well as DGUV-G 305-002 in the field of fire services. Further operational instructions are...

In the Federal Republic of Germany, for example, regular safety inspections are prescribed by DGUV Principle 305-002. Never lay two or more wedge lifting bags on top of each other. Ensure that the load does not slip. Gravitationally support loads being lifted during a continuous lifting procedure. Always pay particular attention to the stable condition of the support material during support work. The support structure must at least support the whole area of the bag and must be larger in its length and width than in its height! Attention danger of slipping! Never place metal on metal when...

VETTER Wedge Lifting Bags 1 bar / 14.5 psi 6 to Application instructions Lifting bags, irrespective of the type, are unstable over the complete lifting distance! When using just one bag it must be positioned exactly under the load‘s centre of gravity otherwise load movement cannot be avoided. In practise, exact positioning is not possible! Before moving the wedge lifting bag under the load it should be ensured that the side wall material is positioned between the top and bottom plates. Under no circumstances should the side wall material be between the load and top or the load and bottom...

Operating Instructions 4.1 Operation with compressed air bottle 200 bar or 300 bar (2,900 psi or 4,350 psi) Connect the pressure reducer to the compressed air bottle, 200 bar or 300 bar (2,900 psi or 4,350 psi), using the tommy screw (1). Close the pressure reducer (2). Open the valve on the bottle (3) slowly. The prepressure manometer (4) indicates the pressure in the bottle. Adjust the back pressure to approximately 2 bar with the regulation bar (5) (indication of the reduced pressure on the back pressure manometer (6)). Connect the air hose of the pressure reducer via the nipple to the...

VETTER Wedge Lifting Bags 1 bar / 14.5 psi 6 to Additional information for illuminated control element Air CU 1 bar Totmann lighting 1 The lighting of the control element illuminates all couplings, switch levers and manometers. It is switched on and off with Switch (1) on the side. The control element is supplied by a 9 V block battery. Since the entire lifting bag system is designed for a temperature range of -20 °C to +55 °C, only batteries with this temperature range are allowed to be used. Based on the current state of the art, only lithium batteries meet this requirement. To insert the...

2. Blind coupling Closes the control line of the brake system. Remember! Ensure the truck does not roll away by using brake blocks! 3. Truck tyre inflation device adapter For extracting air from the tyre inflation bottle in the area of the braking device. Remember! As a standard, the tyre inflation connection must be protected by a safety valve (blow-off pressure: approx. 7.5 bar/108.8 psi)! 4. tyre valve Truck For inflation with any other air source for inflation of tyres. 5. Truck tyre valve connection, can be clamped. For air extraction from the spare tyre. 6. Adapter for the permanent...

VETTER Wedge Lifting Bags 1 bar / 14.5 psi 6 to When stored and handled properly, the properties of rubber products remain nearly constant for a long period of time. However when handled improperly and under unfavourable storage conditions, their physical properties and/or service life are shortened! Please comply with the following storage conditions: Store in a place that is cool, dry, dust-free and moderately ventilated. The storage temperature should be approx. 15 °C; never let it exceed 25 °C. The temperature should also not fall below -10 °C. If there are heating appliances and...
