OPERATION
Read the safety instruction first before operating the magnet
1. Check the condition of the magnet each
time before use. Wipe the pole shoes on
the magnet and the contact surface of
the workpiece burrs or irregularities.
2. Place the magnet on the workpiece
and position the magnet in such a ma-
nner that it remains horizontal during li-
fting (determine the centre of gravity of
the workpiece as accurately as possible).
3. Grasp the handle and switch the mag-
net on by placing the handle in position
A. Allow the spring pressure to pull the
handle back into the locked position.
Check this! Only now the handle can be
released.
NEVER TRY TO SWITCH THE MAGNET ON OR OFF WHILE IT IS SITTING ON VERY THIN OR ON NON-MAGNETIC MATERIAL
OR IN THE AIR.
CAUTION: LIGHT WORKPIECES MAY STICK TO THE MAGNET AFTER IT HAS BEEN SWITCHED OFF! NEVER RELEASE THE
HANDLE BEFORE SAME IS FULLY LOCKED.
4 Lift the load several centimetres and
give the load is well gripped. Never stand
under the load!
5 Guide the load by holding the corners.
Avoid collisions, swinging and shocks.
Never stand under the load and keep the
load horizontal!
6. Grasp the handle bal and pull the han-
dle out of its locked position. Switch the
magnet off by placing the handle in posi-
tion B. Allow the spring pressure to pull
the handle back into the locked position.
Check this! Only now the handle can be
released.
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE OF THE LIFTING MAGNET
Before use:
Check the entire magnet visually. Brush the pole shoes of the magnet and the contact surface of the workpiece clean. If nece-
ssary file off any burrs or irregularities. Do not use the magnet if you have discovered any defects. Check the operation of the
handle and locking plate.
Weekly:
Check the entire magnet, including the hook eye, lifting cover and bolts for deformities, cracks or other defects. If the lifting eye
is deformed or more than 10% worn off, it should be replaced. Check the presence and legibility of the type plate and instructi-
on plate. Check the pole shoes. If they are more than 10% damaged (pits, burrs etc.) the magnet should be returned to your
supplier or an authorised agent for regrinding. Lifting capacity is checked following this operation.
Annually:
Have the lifting capacity of your magnet checked by your supplier or an authorised agent at least once a year.
