Full details

The DeWalt GRABO DCE590N 18v XR Cordless Vacuum Lifter is designed for professionals and DIYers needing to move heavy, flat, non-porous materials with ease. Its key benefit is the automated vacuum system that securely grips and lifts objects up to 120kg, significantly reducing physical strain. A potential caveat is that it requires a compatible battery and charger, which are sold separately.

FAQs

What is the maximum weight the GRABO can lift?

The DeWalt GRABO DCE590N has a maximum lifting capacity of 120kg (approximately 265 lbs).

Does the GRABO come with a battery and charger?

No, this is a 'bare' tool and does not include a battery or charger. They must be purchased separately.

What types of surfaces can the GRABO be used on?

It is designed for flat, clean, and non-porous surfaces such as glass, polished stone, smooth concrete, tiles, and metal sheets.

How do I know if the GRABO has a secure grip?

The digital display features a colored bar. Green indicates optimal suction (-0.6 BAR or higher), signifying a secure grip. Red indicates low suction pressure.

What happens if the suction pressure drops while lifting?

The GRABO features an auto on/off function that monitors and automatically restores vacuum pressure to maintain the grip. You will receive visual and audible warnings if levels reach a minimum.

How do I clean the GRABO's suction cup?

Wipe the suction cup with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Ensure it is completely dry before use.

What is included in the package?

The package includes the 1x DCE590N 18v XR Cordless Grabo Suction Lifter (Body Only), 1x Tstak 2 Case, 1x Seal, 1x Seal Guard, and 1x Spare Filters Set.

Troubleshooting

GRABO not achieving or maintaining suction

Ensure the surface is clean, flat, and non-porous. Check the seal and seal guard for damage or debris. Inspect the filter for blockages. Verify the battery charge level.

Digital display is not turning on

Confirm the battery is correctly inserted and charged. Try a different, known-good DeWalt 18v XR battery.

Red indicator light remains on during operation

This indicates the PSI level is lower than -0.6 BAR. Check for air leaks around the seal or surface. The pump may be struggling to reach optimal pressure; allow it more time or ensure the surface is suitable.

Pump stops working intermittently

This is likely the auto-recovery function. If suction drops, the pump will automatically attempt to restore it. If the pressure drop is significant or persistent, check for leaks or surface issues.
