Handling hazardous dusts
For work procedures with this power tool where
material is removed, dusts develop that can be hazard-
ous to one’s health.
Contact with or inhaling some dust types, e. g. asbestos
and asbestos-containing materials, lead-containing coat-
ings, metal, some wood types, minerals, silicate parti-
cles from materials containing stone, paint solvents,
wood preservatives, antifouling paints for vessels, can
trigger allergic reactions to the operator or bystanders
and/or lead to respiratory infections, cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. The risk from
inhaling dusts depends on the exposition. Use dust
extraction matched appropriately for the developing
dust, as well as personal protective equipment and pro-
vide for good ventilation of the workplace. Leave the
processing of asbestos-containing materials to special-
ists.
Wood and light-metal dust, hot mixtures of grinding
dust and chemical materials can self-ignite under unfa-
vourable conditions or cause an explosion. Avoid
sparking in the direction of the dust collector as well as
overheating of the power tool and the materials being
sanded, empty the dust collector/container in time,
observe the material manufacturer’s working instruc-
tions, as well as the relevant regulations in your country
for the materials being worked.
Operating Instructions.
Adjust the rotational direction switch and the gear
switch only when the machine is at a complete stop.
Always push the gear switch through to the stop. Oth-
erwise, the machine can become damaged.
Thermal overload of the power tool is indicated
through flashing of the LED in the handle.
In case of overload, the machine switches off.
To avoid accidental starting, e. g., during transport, set
the rotation selector switch to the centre position.
Setting the torque
The factory setting is for the small to mid-size screw
range.
Handling the battery.
Store, operate and charge the battery only using FEIN
battery chargers within the battery operating-tempera-
ture range between 5 °C – 45 °C (41 °F – 113 °F). At
the beginning of the charging procedure, the battery
temperature must be within the battery operating-tem-
perature range.
The real percentage of the battery charge condition is
only indicated when the power tool motor is stopped.
The electronics automatically switch off the motor
prior to the battery being deep discharged.
Repair and customer service.
When working metal under extreme oper-
ating conditions, it is possible for conductive
dust to settle in the interior of the power
tool. Blow out the interior of the power tool via the
ventilation slots frequently with dry and oil-free com-
pressed air.
Products that have come into contact with asbestos
may not be sent in for repair. Dispose of products con-
taminated with asbestos according to the applicable
country-specific regulations for such disposal.
