ALFRA TML 500 F Mode D'emploi page 12

Proper Use
The permanent lifting magnet TML 500 F has been designed for lifting ferromagnetic, metallic loads. It may only be
used in combination with spreader bars and within the context of its technical data and purpose.
Proper use also includes adherence to the start-up, operating, environment and maintenance conditions specified
by the manufacturer. Any use going beyond this is considered improper, and the manufacturer will not be liable for
any damage resulting from such use.
Device Description
The TML (Thin Material Lifter) is a switchable lifting magnet with manual actuation for the lifting, transporting and
lowering of ferromagnetic materials.
By pressing the lever (F) down, the magnetic field generated by the permanent magnet can be activated in the lower
magnetic plate (C) area. Thanks to the special design, a very compact magnetic field is generated which develops
excellent adhesive force, especially on thin materials (less than 10 mm). The magnet can be deactivated by first
pressing the safety tab (E) with the heel of the hand and then moving the lever upwards. An adjustable oil damper is
incorporated underneath the safety tab in order to absorb the recoil energy of the lever, especially during use on thin
materials. Additional threads for mounting are located on either front side of the magnet which, if desired, can be
used as holding device. A lifting eye bolt (A) is situated on the top of the lifting magnet for attachment to spreader
bars. The load-bearing capacity of the lifting magnet is equivalent to 1/3 of the maximum breakaway force of the
magnet and thus is equivalent to the standard safety factor 3:1.
