PRECAUTIONS

Even though the magnetism works through non-magnetic bodies such as dusty air and non-fer-
rous materials in general the best effi ciency of any mag net ic hoister is achieved when the poles
(*) make good contact with the load.
The annexed force curve (performance sheet) shows the drop of clamping force F (kgf) of the hoister
with increase in the air gap "T" (in mm.), generated by anything improper such as spaces between
poles and the load such as calamine, foreign bodies, low places, protuberances, strap ping, etc.
A) IT IS RECOMMENDED TO 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 per form ance instructions
of the force/air-space curve for the load char ac ter is tics. This curve is shown on the hoister and
in the annex of the manual with performance sheet.
B) IT IS RECOMMENDED TO clean the surfaces of the load and the poles before putting down
the lifting device. If this happens, observe the performance in struc tions of the force/air space
curve for the load char ac ter is tics. This curve is shown on the hoister and in the enclosure of
the manual - performance sheet
C) IT IS RECOMMENDED TO occasionally check the mechanical condition of the mag net ic poles
to make sure they are fl at and not damaged by mechanical accidents during its time in use.
(*) "Poles" means only the areas or surfaces of the hoister which make contact with the
load.

START UP INSTRUCTIONS

After opening the lifter packing, installation and start-up are very simple and safe pro vid ed load
limits of the lifter, crane and hook on which the lifter is sus pend ed and the applicable standards
are observed for handling suspended loads. (See note, on the next page).
A) Remove lifter from packing and set on an iron
plate (Pict. 1). This operation is to be done with
a crane by hooking the lifter to the bracket.
B) Remove both the lifter's "handle" (with the
thread ed end) and the "fi xing lever" from the
pack ag ing.
Models MaxX 125, 250, 500, MaxX TG 150 and
300 are de liv ered with the control lever in stalled,
so the tool re quired to install it is not supplied.
