did it once on an SP540... didn't like how it dragged so we decided it wasn't worth the risk to the machine.

Cut the magnets about 80% of the way through and then tear them out. Use a 60 degree blade. Because of the weight of magnet material, to get an accurate cut, use more wheels or stay with the machine during cutting and help the magnet media feed back and forth.
