Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position your
body and arm to allow you to resist kickback forces. Always
use auxiliary handle, if provided, for maximum control over
kickback or torque reaction during start-up. The operator
can control torque reactions or kickback forces, if proper
precautions are taken.
Never place your hand near the rotating accessory. Acces-
sory may kickback over your hand.
Do not position your body in the area where power tool will
move if kickback occurs. Kickback will propel the tool in
direction opposite to the wheel's movement at the point
of snagging.
Use special care when working corners, sharp edges, etc.
Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory. Corners,
sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag the
rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kickback.
Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade or toothed
saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback and loss
of control over the power tool.
Special safety warnings for grinding
Use only wheel types that are recommended for your power
tool and the specific guard designed for the selected wheel.
Wheels for which the power tool was not designed can-
not be adequately guarded and are unsafe.
Wheels must be used only for recommended applications.
For example: do not grind with the side of cut-off wheel.
Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended for peripheral
grinding, side forces applied to these wheels may cause
them to shatter.
Always use undamaged wheel flanges that are of correct
size and shape for your selected wheel. Proper wheel
flanges support the wheel thus reducing the possibility of
wheel breakage. Flanges for cut-off wheels may be differ-
ent from grinding wheel flanges.
Do not use worn down wheels from larger power tools.
Wheels intended for larger power tools are not suitable
for the higher speed of a smaller tool and may burst.
Additional safety warnings
Use elastic spacers/liners when these are provided with the
grinding/sanding accessory.
Make sure that the application tools are mounted in accord-
ance with the manufacturers instructions. The mounted
application tools must be able to rotate freely. Incorrectly
mounted application tools can become loose during
operation and be thrown from the machine.
Handle accessories carefully and store them according to
the manufacturer's instructions. Damaged accessories can
form cracks and break off during operation.
Do not machine any material containing asbestos. Asbestos
is cancerogenic.
Beware of any concealed electric cables, gas or water con-
duits; check the working area with a metal detector, for
example, before commencing work.
Use a stationary extraction system, blow out ventilation
slots frequently and connect a residual current device
(RCD) on the line side. When working metal under
extreme operating conditions, it is possible for conduc-
tive dust to settle in the interior of the power tool. The
total insulation of the power tool can be impaired.
Do not rivet or screw any name-plates or signs onto the
power tool. If the insulation is damaged, protection against
an electric shock will be ineffective. Adhesive labels are
recommended.
Secure the workpiece firmly. A work piece that is gripped
tightly in a clamping device or vice, is more secure than if
held by hand.
Hold the power tool firmly. High reaction torque can
briefly occur.
Before putting into operation, check the mains connection
and the mains plug for damage.
Hand/arm vibrations
The vibration emission level given in this information
sheet has been measured in accordance with a standard-
ised test given in EN 60745 and may be used to compare
one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary
assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration emission level represents the
main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used
for different applications, with different accessories or
poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ.
This may significantly increase the exposure level over
the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration
should also take into account the times when the tool is
switched off or when it is running but not actually doing
the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level
over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the opera-
tor from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool
and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation
of work patterns.
The vibrational emission values are given for dry grinding
of metal with grinding points.
Operating instructions.
Note: Observe the maximum permitted projecting shaft
length (a) of the grinding accessory according to the man-
ufacturer's instructions (see page 7).
Using the same pressure, move the power tool back-
wards and forwards across the surface of the work piece
to prevent it from becoming too hot.
Repair and customer service.
Use a stationary extraction system, blow out
the interior of the power tool via the ventila-
tion slots frequently with dry and oil-free
compressed air, and connect a residual current
device (RCD) on the line side. When working metal
under extreme operating conditions, it is possible for
conductive dust to settle in the interior of the power
tool. The total insulation of the power tool can be
impaired.
If the supply cord of this power tool is damaged it must
be replaced by a specially prepared cord available
through the FEIN customer service centre.
If required, you can change the following parts yourself:
Drill chuck, application tools.
