Abstract
A sweeper magnet for attracting magnetic debris from a pick-up surface includes a base assembly and a magnet having a first surface supported by the base assembly and a second surface. A cover extends over the magnet second surface and includes a projection having a projection height extending away from the magnet. The projection automatically creates a space distance of at least the projection height between the pick-up surface and at least a portion of the cover to provide clearance for attracting the magnetic debris.
