Using the Aardwolf 750 Concrete Pipe Lifter is quite straightforward. First, make sure the lifter is in good condition before starting. Then, position it around the concrete pipe within the specified grip range (400 - 500 mm or 15.7' - 19.7'). The lifter will auto - lock when it grabs the pipe. You can then lift and move the pipe to the desired location. When you reach the destination, the lifter will auto - unlock.

For maintenance, regularly check the powder - coated finish for any signs of wear or damage. If you notice any issues, have it inspected by a professional. Also, clean the lifter after each use to keep it in top - notch condition.
