The GRABO Pro-Lifter The GRABO Pro-Lifter is designed for professionals like you in mind. Unlike the other large and expensive material handling solutions, the GRABO PRO is portable and reliable. Living up to the promise of “Heavy Lifting – Made Easy”, the GRABO Pro is equally effective on smooth as well as coarse surfaces. The Pro-Lifter has a vacuum pump capacity of 20 liters per minute, which is where the Pro Lifter 20 name comes from. So, say good-bye to unreliable, and often dangerous, manual suction cups for the job, because with GRABO Pro you can double your work efficiency without worrying about losing suction.
The tool is ergonomically designed with a slimmer handle to provide better grip and less fatigue when moving heavy objects. Of course the tool works perfectly with glass, wood, ceramic tiles, metals and other flat materials, but the the tool is also an effective vacuum lifter even for dusty, semi-porous or rough surfaces. Just like the classic GRABO tool, the PRO model comes with our four metal external anchor points for official and third party attachments, which opens up a world of lifting possibilities.
Lifting Capacity:
Perpendicular Hold | Parallel Hold | |
---|---|---|
Glass | 375Lbs (170 kg) | 265Lbs ( 120 kg ) |
Ceramic Tiles | 375Lbs (170 kg) | 265Lbs ( 120 kg ) |
Metal | 242Lbs ( 110 kg ) | 242Lbs ( 110 kg ) |
Plastic | 220Lbs ( 100 kg ) | 220Lbs ( 100 kg ) |
Wood | 220Lbs ( 100 kg ) | 143Lbs ( 65 kg ) |
Rough Slate | 176Lbs ( 80 kg ) | 176Lbs ( 80 kg ) |
Rough Concrete | 176Lbs ( 80 kg ) | 176Lbs ( 80 kg ) |
Dry Wall | 165Lbs ( 75 kg ) | 143Lbs ( 65 kg ) |
The handle is also equipped with a digital display that shows the maximum weight that the GRABO Pro can safely lift at that very moment. The weight is displayed in both pounds and kgs.
The Pro-Lifter is equipped with a smart digital pressure sensor. This makes it even more effective on different surfaces. With a simple press of a button the lifting function is automatically activated and regulated. The sensor automatically provides for the optimum level of suction, keeping objects in complete control whether the object is being lifted or even during movement.
The digital display on the grab handle shows the pressure applied in both bars and psi. With the pressure sensors, you don’t have to worry about turning the vacuum pump on or off. In fact, the automatic sensor is especially useful when lifting and moving coarse materials. The sensors digitally detect and maintain the required pressure while transferring the object being lifted . This provides for precision handling and installation without too much of a hassle. In any case the sensor automatically stops the pump on reaching maximum vacuum capacity of 11.6 PSI.
However, if you want to lift and move objects that have lighter mass, then the vacuum pump can be turned off. When you want to remove the tool from the object you simply push the red vacuum release button.
The tool operates on 14.8 volts 2600 mAh Li-ion removable battery. The battery takes two hours for a full charge. On a full charge, this powerful battery can last for 900 cycles or 1.5 hours on non-stop running. The battery lasts for a whopping 30 days on standby mode.
Just like the Classic model, GRABO PRO is also equipped with four lifting lugs placed on both sides of the grab handle. These lugs become handy in case the tool is to be used with additional grips or straps for support.
The GRABO Pro has been rigorously tested by professionals around the world. Given its compact design and competitive performance, the Pro Lifter is rapidly becoming a tool of choice, especially in the construction industry around the world.
