Lifting Magnets: Safety mechanisms on levers

In this episode, Tim Ehlers, District Sales Manager and Product Trainer, answers a question from an anonymous viewer: "Does the lever to activate the magnet have a safety mechanism to assure that the lever does not come back or mistakenly get moved to accidentally drop the load?"

Hello my friend, thanks for the “good to know” process on the magnetic handle. Stay thirsty my friend.

Where I can buy this?

[@terrystewart7341]

Are these CSA approved?

[@juanquizeppelin]

how does the magnet turn off? how it works?

[@jaxturner7288]

It lifted the internal magnet far enough to no longer have effect.

@@jaxturner7288 that would require a 100kg force on the on/off lever.... working with a 100kg magnet. Thus you are wrong... 2:00 shows a one handed easy movement to release the magnet.

@@annpeerkat2020 umm, guess you don’t understand what leverage is yet? Hint: the lever is not moving the magnet at a 1:1 ratio. 👌

@@jaxturner7288 dohhhh yes I do understand leverage..... clearly you don't understand what's happening here. I ended up doing my research, and understand how turning the handle TURNS one of the pair of permanent magnets, changing the magnetic field orientation.... NOT levering the magnet away from the lifted plate. Thanks for that great demonstration of ignorance and arrogance combined!
