Safety
Warning for incorrect operation or action that could have
physical injury or damage to the equipment as a result.
Safety instructions
1. Never use this magnet before these instructions have been read
and understood.
2. Persons fitted with a pacemaker or other medical equipment should
never use the magnet without first consulting a medical specialist.
3. Never remove warning or instruction plates from the magnet.
4. Do always wear safety glasses, gloves, protective footwear and a
helmet.
5. Never stand or move under the load.
6. Never transport over or close to people.
7. Never use the magnet as an aid to lifting, supporting or transporting
persons.
8. Warn bystanders when beginning to lift and load.
9. To prevent the hook from slipping out of the eye hook we recom-
mend the use of a lifting hook equipped with a safety latch.
10. Ensure that the weight and dimensions of the load to be lifted do
not exceed the maximum permitted values.
11. Never use a damaged or poorly operating magnet.
12. Only switch the magnet on when it has been placed on the load.
13. Only switch the magnet off when the load has been placed on a
stable surface.
14. Never lift more than one work piece at a time with this magnet.
15. Never leave a hoisted load unattended.
16. The temperature of the load or the surroundings must never ex-
ceed 80°C.
Determining the workload limit (WLL)
The workload limit of type 100 = 100 kg.
The workload limit of type 300 = 300 kg.
The workload limit of type 600 = 600 kg.
The workload limit of type 1000 = 1000 kg.
The workload limit of type 2000 = 2000 kg.
The workload limit may become less as a result of:
1. Air gaps between the load and the magnet, caused by paper, dirt,
paint, burrs, damage, surface roughness etc. either on the load or the
magnet.
2. Thin loads. The thinner the load, the less the lifting capacity.
3. Length and width of the load. Long, wide parts that hang outside the
magnet protrusions, resulting in an air gap. This is called the peeling
effect.
Never exceed the maximum weight and/or dimensions for
the material thickness stated in the table.
Never place the magnet over a large hole or bore.
4. The load material type. In general it applies that: high alloy percen-
tage = low lifting capacity.
Some alloys are non-magnetic (e.g. stainless steel 304).
5. A small contact surface between pole shoes and load. In case the
load does not fully cover the pole shoes, the lifting capacity will be
reduced by the same percentage.
A workpiece should ideally cover both pole shoes, but if this
is not possible always to an equal amount.
6. The magnet must remain fully horizontal during transport.
