Working instructions.
Before mounting or replacing application tools or accessories, remove the bat-
tery. This preventive safety measure rules out the danger of injuries through
accidental starting of the power tool.
Do not use accessories not specifically intended and recommended for this power tool by FEIN.
The use of non-original FEIN accessories can lead to overheating of the power tool and destroy
it.
For each job, use only the FEIN application tool released and intended for the
respective application.
Switching on and off (figure 9).
Always hold the power tool
firmly. Otherwise, you could
lose control over the power tool.
The self-start prevention lock prevents the
power tool from automatically starting when
the battery is inserted while the on/off switch
is set to on.
Guide the power tool toward the work
piece only when switched on.
Switching on:
Push the switch toward the front (I).
Switching off:
Push the switch toward the rear (
).
Setting the oscillating frequency
(figure 10).
Adjust the oscillating frequency infinitely vari-
able with the dial control.
Turn the dial control between “1” for the
lowest speed and “6” for the highest speed.

Notes on sanding.
Press the power tool with the sanding sheet
briefly and firmly against a flat surface and
briefly switch the power tool on. This pro-
vides for good adhesion and prevents prema-
ture wear.
When only one tip or corner of the sanding
sheet is worn, it can be removed again and
reattached, turned by 120°.
Work with the entire surface of the sanding
plate, not only with the tip.
When sanding with small triangle sanding
plates, select a high oscillating frequency
(electronics level 4 – 6); when sanding with
the round sanding plate and the large triangle
sanding plate, select a moderate oscillating
frequency (max. electronics level 4).
Sand with continuous motion applying mod-
erate pressure. Applying excessive pressure
does not increase the rate of removal, it only
wears off the sanding sheet faster.
Notes on sawing.
Select a high oscillating frequency. Round saw
blades can be released and clamped offset
again, to allow for uniform wearing off.
Notes on scraping.
Select a moderate to high oscillating fre-
quency.
