Safe Use; Safety Instructions - pewag winner profimag PMA 300 Originalbetriebsanleitung

6. Safe use

Before lifting a load check the general functionality.
1) Try to magnetize the lifter on a ferrous surface. Lever must be able to turn 180° smoothly to the blocking latch
system.
2) Verify the latch system. It has to move smoothly, locking the lever once turned "on".
3) Check the lifting equipment to which the pewag winner profimag lifting magnet is linked at. It must be applicable
to lift the load.
4) Arrange a pre-test to check the lifting function: lift 110 % of the load capacity just 10 cm in order to verify a safe
grab. If the load moves away do not use the magnet and contact pewag.
Lifting the load
Warning: Non proper use can lead to failure of the lifting magnet and loss of the load causing injury or fatalities.
E 1) Make sure the load does not exceed the maximum capacity of the lifting magnet. Consider the terms of use about
limits, reduction factors and safety (pages 4 and 5)
2) Put the lifter on the metallic load, positioning it above the center of gravity. Position it breadthwise in case of
flexible workpiece.
3) Make sure that the polar surfaces are clean and completely in direct contact with the load face.
4) Get the lifter started: turn the lever anti clockwise 180° to the on position so it gets locked by the latch.
5) Make sure the latch is locking the lever safely.
6) Arrange the pre-test, if ok proceed.
7) Lower the material once lifted.
8) Once the load is lowerd in a safe and stable position, turn the magnet off, unlocking the safe latch and turning the
lever 180° clockwise to the off position.
Warning: pay attention and be careful turning the lever back to the off position. It may release very quickly.

7. Safety instructions

• The Operator has to make sure that the use of the pewag winner profimag lifting magnet is always in
compliance to the informations in this operating manual, rules and law both local and national for lifting
and lifting equipment.
• Do not stand under the load once lifted.
• During the use, close to the lifting magnet there is a floating magnetic range.
• Lifting magnets magnetic range might interfere with electro medical devices. It is warmly recommended
to those people having pacemaker or metallic prosthesis not to get close to the lifting magnet without pewag and
Medical authorization.
• Lifting magnets magnetic range might also interfere with electronic devices (such as mobile phones). Keep such
devices out of the way when working with lifting magnets to prevent any damage.
