2.1 The most important components of the lifting magnet are the following:
Magnet body
Rating plate
Load capacity signs
If these important components are damaged or do not exist, the magnet has to be checked by an expert
before any further use and, if necessary, it has to be repaired.
3. Normal use warning
It is necessary for the operator to make sure the device mounted on the lifting machine can support the
weight to be lifted so as to carry out the operation in complete safety.
• Avoid as much as possible setting down the hoister in places on the load that are very dirty or deformed.
If this happens, observe the performance instructions of the force/air-space curve for the load charac
teristics. This curve is shown on the hoister and in the annex of the manual with performance sheet.
• Clear any foreign material from the load as much as possible before setting the hoister on it. If this hap
pens, observe the performance instructions of the force/air space curve for the load characteristics. This
curve is shown on the hoister and in the enclosure of the manuals – performance sheet.
• Check occasionally the mechanical condition of the magnetic poles to make sure they are flat and not
damaged by mechanical accidents during its time in use.
• Turn on the lifter by rotation the lever mechanism to the MAG position and lock the lever on the lever
stop (see operating cycle description).
• Move the load observing applicable standards for handling any suspended loads. No one should be in
the operating area.
• Set the load on the floor or support before releasing it, being careful that the load is perfectly settled on
the floor or support and that the support is adequate for the load.
• To release the load, manually move the lever stop pin and rotate the lever system to the DEMAG positi-
on.
Magnetization:
• Firmly move the lever from OFF to ON (Pic.2).
• Make sure the lever is perfectly locked by the lever stop mechanism).
Demagnetization:
• Grasp lever firmly and move the pin of the lever stop system in direction of arrow
• Firmly but gently move lever to OFF while rotating (Pic.2).
