3. Intended Use
Always observe the maximum load capacity of the magnet according to FX manual.
The load limit is determined by the carrying capacity of the magnet and the limitation
by the workpiece according to FX determined operating instructions and can signifi-
cantly be below the mechanical maximum capacity of the HV system.
3.1 General instructions before use
• Before each use, check the contact surfaces of both the magnet and that of the
Workpiece. The contact surfaces must be clean and flat! (Also note the Operating
Instructions for FX Lifting magnets)
• Adjust the HV system according to the workpiece size (Figure 4)
• The workpiece must always properly seated against the vertical stop during lifting. (Fig.1)
The displacement force must be collected from the stop. You always must set the magnet
centered in the focus of the workpiece, and tighten on the bearing bolts according to the
workpiece geometry symmetrically. (Fig. 2)
• The workpiece must hang vertically in vertical transport, during the lifting operation so that
it can not slide away from the stop. Depending on the load center of gravity the extension
arm (Fig.3) is to adjust so that the vertical transportation can be ensured.
• ALWAYS SAVE THE DETENT PINS WITH RELATED SPLINT!!!
