Instruction Manual for cordless screwdriver.

Symbols, abbreviations and terms used. For your safety.

Do not use this power tool before you have thor-

oughly read and completely understood this 

Instruction Manual and the enclosed “General 

Safety Instructions” (document number 

3 41 30 054 06 1). The documents mentioned should be 

kept for later use and enclosed with the power tool, 

should it be passed on or sold.

Please also observe the relevant national industrial safety 

regulations.

Special safety instructions.

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.

Do not machine any material containing asbestos.

 Asbestos 

is cancerogenic.

Hold the power tool firmly.

 High reaction torque can 

briefly occur.

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.

Explanation

Do not touch the rotating parts of the power tool.

Be absolutely sure to read the enclosed documentation such as the Instruction Manual and the 

General Safety Instructions.

Before commencing this working step, remove the battery from the power tool. Otherwise 

there is danger of injury if the power tool should start accidentally.

Use eye-protection during operation.

Use ear protection during operation.

Confirms the conformity of the power tool with the directives of the European Community.

Worn out power tools and other electrotechnical and electrical products should be sorted

Do not use accessories which are not specifically designed 

and recommended by the power tool manufacturer.

 Safe 

operation is not ensured merely because an accessory fits 

your power tool.

Beware of any concealed electric cables, gas or water con-

duits;

 check the working area with a metal detector, for 

example, before commencing work.

Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when per-

forming an operation where the cutting accessory may con-

tact hidden wiring.

 Cutting accessory contacting a “live” 

wire will make exposed metal parts of the power tool 

“live” and shock the operator.

Always remove the battery from the power tool before com-

mencing any work on the power tool and when transporting 

and storing it.

 If the power tool should start to run acci-

dentally it could cause personal injury.

Do not open the battery.

 There is danger of causing a short 

circuit that could lead to burns or fire.

Do not throw the battery into a fire and do not expose the 

battery to high temperatures.

 There is danger of this caus-

ing an explosion.

Follow the safety instructions in the Instruction Manual 

for the battery charger.

Never look directly into the light of the power tool lamp if 

you are close to it. Never shine the light of the power tool 

lamp directly at other persons nearby.

 The radiation emit-

ted by the illuminant is harmful to the eyes.

Intended use of the power tool:

Hand-guided cordless screwdriver for commercial use, 

for tightening and loosening screws and nuts in weather-

protected environments using the application tools and 

accessories recommended by FEIN.

Operating instructions.

The power tool is equipped with a soft-starting feature.

If the motor switches off after a correct screwdriving 

operation it is not possible to switch it on again until after 

0,8 secs. This avoids screws being tightened again unin-

tentionally that are already tight.

Charging the battery.

Charge the battery fully before putting into operation for 

the first time. A new battery does not reach its full capac-

ity until after several charging/discharging cycles. If a bat-

tery is already charged, do not charge it again.

Do not charge the battery until it is has become dis-

charged and is therefore no longer able to carry out any 

more screwdriving. If the battery becomes discharged 

within a short time despite being charged correctly, it has 

reached the end of its service life.

If the power tool is not going to be used for a longer 

period, pull out the battery. In this way, harmful, low bat-

tery discharging is avoided.

Selecting the direction of rotation (see page 10+11).

To perform individual screwdriving operations with anti-

clockwise rotation, push the rotational direction 

switch (B). The LED lights flash red and green.

Once you have completed the operation in the anti-

clockwise direction, or if you have not used the power 

tool for 10 seconds, the power tool automatically 

switches back to the clockwise direction.

For continuous anit-clockwise rotation, actuate 

switch (A) with light pressure until the light is activated 

and push the rotational direction switch (B) at the same 

time. The LED lights flash red and green.

To perform individual screwdriving operations with 

clockwise rotation, push the rotational direction 

switch (B).

To reset to continuous clockwise rotation, actuate 

switch (A) with light pressure until the light is activated 

and push the rotational direction switch (B) at the same 

time.

Note:

 If you remove the battery from the power tool, the 

factory settings with clockwise rotation are automatically 

restored.

Explanation of the LED display and signalling beep.

Green LED light illuminated.

You have carried out the screwdriving operation cor-

rectly. The pre-set torque has been reached.

Red LED light illuminated and a brief signalling beep.

You have not carried out the screwdriving operation cor-

rectly. The required torque has not been reached. The 

screwdriving operation must be carried out once again.

Red LED light illuminated and no signalling beep.

While mounting the battery, you have to push the rota-

tional direction switch (B) or actuate switch (A). Release 

the switches again. The power tool is ready for operation 

again when the red LED light goes out.

If the red LED light does not go out, there is either a 

memory error or switch (A) is defective. If the electronic 

control is defective, it must be exchanged by the Cus-

tomer Service Centre.

Red LED light flashes (1 x per second).

The battery is discharged (empty) and must be changed. 

The power tool is blocked; it will not be ready for oper-

ation again until after a “dead” time of approx. 20 sec.

Red LED light flashes (2 x per second).

The power tool is overheated; the overtemperature pro-

tection has actuated. After cooling down the power tool 

will be ready for operation again. Should the overtem-

perature protection actuate several times in quick succes-

sion, have the power tool examined by the Customer 

Service Centre.

Repair and customer service.

Blow out the interior of the power tool at 

regular intervals from outside through the air 

vents with dry, compressed air.

Check whether the battery contacts are clean.

The gearbox must be relubricated on the motor pinion 

and on the bearing axle of the planetary gears after 

250,000 screwdriving operations 

(Grease 3 21 32 023 01 0).
