I use a a really stubby magnetic screwdriver on my machines. As far as I can tell there is nothing but moving machine parts under there. No circuit boards or things to get damaged by a magnet. I think if you used a magnet like they do in workshop to pick up nails and such off the floor it would mess things up.
Just don't let the magnetic tips near the display screens on your machines.
