Wipe the pole shoes
on the magnet and
the contact surface
of the workpiece
clean. If necessary
file off any burrs or
irregularities.
2 Place the magnet on
the workpiece and
position the magnet
in such a manner
that it remains
horizontal during
lifting (determine the
centre of gravity of
the workpiece as
accurately as
possible).
3 Grasp the handle
and switch the
magnet on by placing

A. Allow the spring
pressure to pull the
handle back into the

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.

centimetres and give
the load a firm push
to ensure that it is
well gripped. Never

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE OF THE LIFTING
MAGNET
Before use:
ź
Check the entire magnet visually. Brush the pole shoes of the
magnet and the contact surface of the workpiece clean.
If necessary 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:
ź
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 instruction 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:
ź
Have the lifting capacity of your magnet checked by your supplier or
an authorised agent at least once a year.
