Proper Use

®
The Maglogix Variable Angle Clamp (MX-750-VA) is a unit equipped with two switchable magnetic clamps (two
MX-750), which are designed to position and accurately align separate ferromagnetic, metallic workpieces to each
other. The Variable Angle Clamp may only be used in accordance to the technical data provided below. Proper use
includes adherence to the start-up, operating, environment and maintenance conditions specified by the
manufacturer. The user bears sole responsibility for understanding this operating manual as well as for the proper
use and maintenance of this Variable Angle Clamp. Please contact the manufacturer if you have any questions
prior to using this device.

Device Description

The MX-750-VA Variable Angle Clamp is based upon the special design of the MX-750 magnetic clamp and
consists of two MX-750 magnetic clamps (B). Each MX-750 has a tightly compacted (shallow-profile) magnetic field
that develops an incredible attractive force especially on thin ferromagnetic materials of less than 10 mm. Both MX-
750 magnetic clamps of the Variable Angle Clamp are switchable (ON/OFF) by means of a 60° manual activation
lever (A). When switched and locked into the ON position, internal permanent magnets generate a powerful
magnetic field into the magnetic contact area (D) and hold a ferromagnetic, metallic workpiece with incredible force.
To deactivate a magnetic clamp, first lift the activation lever at its far end upwards to disengage the lever from its
latching notch and return by 60° into the OFF position.
Note: Care must be taken because the activation lever can quickly/strongly spring back to the OFF position
when working on thin materials.
The angle between these two magnetic clamps can be adjusted per the user's specific application. Any angle
between 0° and 90° can be adjusted and fixed to the exact read-out point (E) and angle scale (F). All 3 clamping
levers (C) of the Pivot Magnet Clamp must be loosened and then tightened to fix the desired angle. When used in
small, cramped installation spaces the clamping levers can be substituted with the enclosed mild steel screws. With
the enclosed 5mm Allen Key (I) the angle can be fixed in place. See Mounting Options for further information.
