Mechanical Hazards
The MagneMover LITE transport system is a complex electromechanical system. Only per-
sonnel with the proper training should install, operate, or service the MM LITE transport sys-
tem.
All facilities to the MM LITE transport system must be disconnected as outlined in the lock-
out/tagout procedure for the facility before servicing to help prevent injury from the automatic
operation of the equipment. The proper precautions for operating and servicing remotely con-
trolled electromechanical equipment must be observed. These precautions include wearing
safety glasses, safety shoes, and any other precautions that are specified within the facility
where the MM LITE components are being used.
LOOSE MATERIAL HAZARD: Payloads are suscepti-
ble to vector motion forces.
Always account for the effects of acceleration, deceleration,
and directional changes upon the payload. Control forces to
avoid projectile motion of the payload, limit move profiles
and/or provide tooling to secure the payload to the vehicle
(puck).
PINCH/CRUSH HAZARD: Moving mechanisms have no
obstruction sensors.
Do not operate the MagneMover LITE components without
barriers in place or personal injury could result in the squeez-
ing or compression of fingers or other body parts between
moving mechanisms.
AUTOMATIC MOTION HAZARD
Whenever power is applied, the possibility of automatic
movement of the vehicles (pucks) on a MagneMover LITE
transport system exists, which could result in personal injury.
LIFTING HAZARD
The MagneMover LITE components can weigh as much as
7.3 kg [16.1 lb].
Use proper techniques for lifting and safety toe shoes when
moving any MagneMover LITE components.
