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.
