The magnetic material used, with a high specific energy, made it digested before opening. possible to reduce to the maximum weight and volume.

To allow a high uniformity of performance, given the large series, Keep the original packaging for later handling. the MaxX lifter is magnetized in a single stroke after assembly, using the largest magnetizer built in Europe. MaxX is able to handle the load, which is always anchored and lifted from above, without any deformation or damage with an optimal use of the available work areas. Some of the most recognized areas with the use of MaxX are the

following: - servicing of machine tools - wholesalers of ferrous material 2.3 Transport - cutting plants - carpentry Some parts may have to be dismantled for transport, to be - shipyards reassembled and reconnected during installation by - foundries TECNOMAGNETE S.p.A. technicians, or by the User on - steel industries TECNOMAGNETE S.p.A.’s recommendations.

Also, avoid placing the MaxX "cut" with the anchored load. 8 ANALYSIS OF RESIDUAL Fig.8.1C RISKS Permanent magnetic systems manufactured by Tecnomagnete are made paying close attention to the construction criteria and to the regulations in force regarding safety: in any case, possible dangerous conditions can remain. This chapter is intended to warn of UNSTABLE risks that may arise in particular situations.

8.1 Risks related to MaxX lifters

Since MaxX is by its nature intended for installation in various applications it is necessary that the user has understood and assimilated both the instructions of this 8.2 Personal protective manual and the instructions contained in the Manual of the installation on which it is installed/ hooked. equipment The user must therefore be informed of any residual risks The Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) required for the that may arise during the coupling and release phases, use of the MaxX are the same as those required for the use magnetization and demagnetization, handling and laying of of the system on which it is installed/hooked (see also the MaxX and its load. Please note that to correctly carry paragraph 1.8). out the MaxX lifting must be placed on the centre of gravity of the load; In fact an unbalanced load can 8.3Exposure to magnetic field compromise the magnetic anchorage. Below are two examples of STABLEpositioning (correctly laid on the For possible risks related to exposure to magnetic fields, a centre of gravity of the load) and UNSTABLE positioning. careful evaluation of the possible effects against pregnant women, subjects with special pathologies and persons with

Fig.8.1A pacemaker or other patients, is recommended. Prostheses

equipped with electronic circuits such as hearing aids,

intracranial metallic preparations (or in any case near vital

anatomical structures), vascular clips or splinters in

STABLE ferromagnetic material.

It is therefore known that: 1. The permanent magnetic systems produced by Fig.8.1B Tecnomagnete are stationary magnetic systems and, as such, do not emit electric fields. 2. The magnetic field emission does not exceed 100 UNSTABLE Gauss at a distance of 100 mm from the magnetic system

It is therefore specified that the values of the magnetic fields are lower than the action values indicated in table 2 of annex XXXVI to Legislative Decree 81/2008. MaxX is therefore a product suitable for the wearers of pacemakers or other prostheses equipped with electronic circuits. For further details see section 8.4.

codice 09MAXX001 Use and Maintenance Manual MaxX versione EN revisione 01 17

8.4 Action levels (LA) of the static magnetic field

The European Union Directive on Electromagnetic Fields (Directive 2013/35/EU, also known as the EMF Directive) contains general provisions to ensure the safety and health of workers. Essentially, the EMF Directive provides further details on how to achieve the objectives of the Framework Directive (Directive 89/391/EEC), in the specific case of work in the presence of electromagnetic fields. An action level (LA) quantified as 0.5 mT (milli-Tesla) is specified to limit interference with the function of active implantable medical devices. The Electromagnetic Fields Directive also provides for an LA of 3 mT to limit the propulsive risk in the peripheral field from high intensity sources (> 100 Mt). The following table shows the LA values of the stationary fields of the various MaxX models in active state (MAG) or in deactivated state (DEMAG).

Fig.9.1C1 Fig.9.1C2

Position MaxX on the load to be handled paying attention to its characteristics, with attention to the thickness, as indicated in paragraph 5.1. The poles of the MaxX must be in perfect and total contact Fig.9.1C3 Fig.9.1C4 with the load to be handled. Position Position Make sure that the poles of the MaxX are perfectly IN service OUT service centered on the load with greater attention to the anchoring of a round or a pipe. CAUTION: DO NOT ACIDENTALLY MOVE THE STOP-LEVE Now proceed with the following steps: WITH THE SUSPENSION LOAD, especially for loads with a high air gap (e.g.: rounds, tubes) because it could cause a) Activate MaxX by turning the lever to the MAG the load to come off and fall accidentally (with the load position. anchored NOT in optimal conditions if you move the lever Fig.9.1A stop device, bringing it to the OUT service position Fig.9.1C4, it could cause the sudden rotation of the lever from the MAG position to the DEMAG position).

d) Place the load perfectly on the ground or on a support suitable for supporting the weights of both

the load and the MaxX.

10.1Controls – Standards

Work equipment must be subject to periodic inspections at frequencies determined on the basis of the information supplied by the manufacturers, or the standards of good practice, or in the absence thereof,

which can be inferred from the codes of good practice.

For this purpose, the types of controls derived from the technical standards UNI ISO 9927-1:2016 and ISO 12482- 1:2014 are reported: b) Holding with one hand the lever stop device in position as described in phase a) proceed holding  DAILY CONTROL: see paragraph 10.3 the lever, with the other hand, and make it rotate  FREQUENT CONTROL: see paragraph 10.4 until it accompanies it to the end stop in DEMAG  PERIODIC CONTROL: see paragraph 10.5 position.

Fig.9.2B 10.2 Checks - Method

Below are the descriptions of the control methods, related to the inspection methods:  VISUAL CHECK: examination conducted with the aim of identifying any anomalies or deviations

from normal conditions by means of visual checks. Generally, the visual inspection is conducted DEMAG without disassembling the equipment, unless there are particular needs that may arise.

 NON DESTRUCTIVE CHECK: reference is made to examinations such as penetrating liquids, c) Move MaxX with the same procedure described in ultrasounds, magnetic particles, X-rays, which may paragraph 7.1 in step a). be necessary after the visual examination

Fig.9.2C  FUNCTIONAL TEST: concern tests carried out on controls, levers, indicator screws, etc. Functional tests are those that allow to obtain a value or a measure.  OPERATIONAL TEST: include tests with and without load and/or tests for the functioning of the devices (with greater attention to the limiting devices and indicators).
