Proper Use; Device Description - ALFRA TMC 600 Mode D'emploi

PROPER USE

The TMC 600 is a switchable magnetic clamp equipped with permanent magnets which is designed for
attachment to ferromagnetic, metallic work pieces. It may only be used according to its technical data and
determination. Proper use includes adherence to the start-up, operating, environment and maintenance
conditions specified by the manufacturer. The user bears sole responsibility for understanding the operating
manual as well as for proper use and maintenance of the magnetic clamp.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION

The TMC (Thin Material Clamper) is a switchable magnetic clamp with manual actuation designed for
attachment to ferromagnetic materials. The magnet can be activated by pushing the activation lever (A) into
the ON position until it audibly latches into place. The installed permanent magnet generates a magnetic
field in the magnetic contact area (E). Owing to the special design of the TMC 600, this magnetic field
is very compact and develops excellent adhesive force especially on thin materials of less than 10 mm.
The activation lever must be lifted slightly at its end and returned by 60° into the OFF position in order
to deactivate the magnet. Care must be taken that the lever springs back strongly when working on thin
materials.
Multiple threaded holes (C) and precise round holes (D) which can be used individually are located on
three sides of the magnetic clamp.

Be sure to read the operation instructions completely before using the magnet for the first time!
