Full details

The Laser Magnetic Pick Up Tool - 64cm - 4mm Head is designed for mechanics and DIY enthusiasts needing to retrieve small metal objects from tight spaces. Its primary benefit is reaching into confined areas like engine bays for dropped fasteners or components. A key consideration is its 200g lifting capacity, which means it's not suitable for heavier items.

Troubleshooting

Tool not picking up objects

Ensure the object is made of ferrous metal. Check that the magnetic head is clean and free from debris. Verify the object is within the tool's 200g lifting capacity. Ensure the telescopic shaft is fully extended and stable if applicable.

Telescopic shaft is stiff or difficult to extend/retract

Gently twist and pull/push the sections. Ensure no dirt or debris is obstructing the mechanism. If stiffness persists, a light application of a suitable lubricant might help, but use sparingly.

Magnet strength seems weak

Ensure the magnetic head is clean. Check that the object being picked up is not too heavy for the stated 200g capacity. Avoid storing the tool near strong magnetic fields.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This tool requires no setup. Simply extend the telescopic shaft to the desired length by gently pulling the sections apart. Ensure each section locks into place if applicable, or simply hold the desired length. The magnetic head is always active and ready for use.

Compatibility: The tool is designed to attract ferrous (iron-containing) metal objects. It is compatible with a wide range of small metal parts such as screws, nuts, bolts, washers, springs, and other metallic debris. It is not suitable for non-ferrous materials like plastic, aluminum, or brass.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the magnetic head and telescopic shaft with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents.
  • Storage: Store the tool in a dry environment. Ensure the telescopic sections are retracted or fully extended when not in use to prevent accidental damage or snagging.
  • Magnet Care: Keep the magnetic head away from sensitive electronic devices and magnetic media to prevent data corruption. Avoid exposing the magnet to extreme heat, which could weaken its magnetic properties.
