Intelift ntelift I Installation nstallation I 4. Functional Test Functional Test 4. • Dynamic Lift/ Lower Use the rocker switch to maneuver to the part. Engage the part. Depress the UP rocker switch. The end effector and part should lift. Depress the speed select button until the load moves at a comfortable speed. Depress the DN rocker to verify that the speed is correct.

Push down on the control handle and engage the part. Lift up on the control handle and raise the load. The load should move smoothly with minimal effort.

Intelift ntelift I Installation nstallation I 4. Functional Test (cont.) Functional Test (cont.) 4. • Float Mode Push the Intelift button on the pendent. Engage the part. Raise the load by lifting the end effector. Move the load up/down by hand not using the pendent. The load should move smoothly with minimal effort.

Intelift ntelift I Installation nstallation I 4. Functional Test (cont.) Functional Test (cont.) 4. • Smart Drop Mode Push the Intelift button on the pendent Move the end effector to the part handled. Engage the part. Raise the load approximately 6 inches. Press and release the clamp/unclamp button. Smart Drop- the load should lower the 6 inches and release the part when supported.

Intelift ntelift I Installation nstallation I 4. Functional Test (cont.) Functional Test (cont.) 4. • Dump Mode Push the Intelift button on the pendent Move the end effector to the part handled. Engage the part. Raise the load approximately 12 inches. Begin dumping the load. Dump- the load should remain in the same position as the weight decreases.

Intelift ntelift T Troubleshooting roubleshooting I F ind out as many details about failure: F What happened prior to failure? Is the unit E-Stopped/ power “on”? Was anyone operating the unit when it failed? B e sure not to overlook the obvious!! B I f you think you have a suspect part, prove it before you replace it!! I
