Ixtur LI-120  

 
Maintenance and Inspection 
 

 

 

This device produces a magnetic field that may interfere with medical devices such as metallic 

implants or cardiac pacemakers. Do not use this device and keep out of close proximity unless you 
have approval from the manufacturer of the medical device or from your physician 

 

 
Keep the Automatic Lifting Magnet LI-120 clean using mild soap and a moist wiping cloth. Do not use a lot of 
liquid and avoid strong detergents! 
 
Cleaning increases the operational life time of Automatic Lifting Magnet LI-120, ensures its safe operation and 
helps to better identify malfunctions and damages. 
 
Do not use the device if you find any broken parts or malfunctions! 
 
The lifting shackle can be changed by the user. Only use a 20 mm wide approved lifting shackle with axel 
diameter 10,0 mm that has Lifting Capacity (WLL) 120 kg or more. 
 
Authorized Service can replace the integrated battery. 
 
If other defective parts are detected, repairs can be made only by the manufacturer or manufacturer's 
authorized repair technician. 
 
Ask your dealer about service and repairs. 
 
Maintenance and inspection within operation 
 
Is performed on a daily basis or at least prior to each work shift. Also whenever the device has been subjected 
to abnormal forces, like a strong shock or falling. 
 

 

Clean the Device and Check that the device is undamaged on the surface, without bends, dents or 

cracks 

 

Check that the lifting shaft (2) moves smoothly, without jerks. Clean and grease the lifting shaft with 

vaseline if necessary. Do not use oil! 

 

Remove all dents and spurs on the magnetic lifting surface (7) that can cause increasing air gap and 

decreasing holding force carefully with fine sandpaper 

 

Check that the lifting shackle (1) is properly connected 

 

Check that all functions work properly before starting work 

 

Before each lifting operation clean the magnetic lifting surface (7) and surface of load from dust, rust 

and other dirt that can increase the air gap to maximize the holding force 
 

Weekly maintenance and inspection 
 
Is performed on a weekly basis in addition to the daily check list. Also to be performed whenever the device 
has been subjected to abnormal forces, like a strong shock or falling. 
 

 

Check that the lifting shackle (1) is in perfect working condition, if not, change into a proper one 

 

Check products’ fastening bolts (9) and tighten when required (tightening moment 27 Nm) 

 

Check the locking ring (8) of the lifting shackle 

 

Clean the membrane of the lifting shaft (under the shaft collar (10)) carefully by lifting the lifting shaft 

(2) and shaft collar (10) in an upright position. Also check that the membrane is intact. 

 

Check the magnetic lifting surface (7) of the device for flatness and wear. Uneven wear and deep 

scratches, dents or spurs can create an air gap between the lifting surface and load, which will reduce 
the lifting capacity. If more than 10% of the device’s flat lifting surface is affected, it should be taken off 
service until the lifting surface can be reground. If regrinding is necessary, all lifting surfaces must 
remain flat and in the same plane. Re-testing of the holding force is mandatory after regrinding
