Operating and maintenance instructions for models NEO-LIFT
8
5. Contact surface of load barely bigger than pole shoes: See 2nd column under WLL in table. In case the
load does not fully cover the pole shoes the lifting capacity will be reduced by the same percentage.
A work piece should cover both pole shoes as far as possible, and always to an equal amount.
6. The magnet must remain fully horizontal during transport.
UNSAFE APPLICATIONS:
• Never lift more work pieces simultaneously (e.g. thin sheets)
• Never lift a load on the smallest side,
• Never place the magnet with the lung side lengthwise on a flexible work piece (peeling effect).
OPERATION:
Read the safety instructions 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 work piece clean lf necessary file off any burrs or irregularities.
2. Place the magnet in the centre of gravity of the work piece so that it remains horizontal during lifting. Place
the poles of the magnet crosswise to the length of a flexible load.
3. Seize the handle and pull the handle out of its looked position. Switch the magnet on by placing the handle
in position ON. 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.
4. Lift the load several centimetres and give the load a firm push to ensure that it 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. Seize the handle and pull the handle; out of its locked position Switch the magnet off by placing the handle
in position OFF. Allow the spring pressure to pull the handle back into the locked position. Check this! Only
now the handle can be released.
CAUTION
:
• Light workplaces may stick to the magnet alter it has been switched oil!
• Never release the handle before same is fully locked.
