Start-Up - ALFRA TML 400R Mode D'emploi

Start-up

You have received a completely assembled lifting magnet and detailed operating manual. Please check the
condition of the goods upon receipt for any damage incurred during transport, and make sure the delivery is
complete. If you have any problems, please contact the authorized reseller or manufacturer immediately.
Be sure to read the operation instructions completely before using this magnet for the first time!
1. Follow the safety instructions. Clean the work piece and the lower magnetic plate of the lifting magnet.
Note: Although the activation lever of the TML-Magnet is facing upwards (OFF position), the
magnet still has a slight magnetic pre-tensioning. This pre-tension does not only allow for ease of
positioning the lifting magnet to the workpiece, it also avoids inadvertent slippage or dropping of
the lifting magnet or the workpiece (e.g. when used in a vertical or other forced position).
2. Position the lifting magnet at the center of gravity of the load.
3. Ensure that the workpiece is positioned correctly inside the groove of the magnetic contact area when
using the TML 400R on round material. Otherwise the magnet's load-bearing capacity is not ensured.
4. Align the lifting magnet ideally according to the desired application.
5. Press the activation lever down until it is fully engaged in the ON position. Make sure that it is securely
locked underneath the safety tab.
6. Perform a test lift: Move the load hook to the required position and lift the load by about 10 mm to check its
deformation and the magnetic holding force of the TML-Magnet.
7. Check for any air gap developing at the edges of the magnetic surface contact area, for instance by means
of a sheet of paper (80g/m
bearing capacity of the lifting magnet will be reduced significantly.
Immediately stop the lift if there is any excessive deformation of the work piece or an air gap.
Use spreader bars with additional magnets to safely lift large or flexible loads.

). If a small distance (air gap) forms between magnet and workpiece, the load-
