General Power Tool Safety.

  • Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
  • Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.
  • Power tools create sparks that may ignite the dust or fumes.
  • Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distraction can cause you to lose control.

Electrical safety

  • Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.
  • Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
  • Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
  • Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
  • There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
  • Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
  • Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
  • Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
  • Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
  • Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
  • When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
  • Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
  • If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected supply.
  • Use of an GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock

Special safety instructions.

Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on application, use a face shield, safety goggles or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves and workshop apron capable of stopping small abrasive or work piece fragments. The eye protection must be capable of stopping flying debris generated by various operations. The dust mask or respirator must be capable of filtrating particles generated by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.

  • When there is danger of falling down, secure the machine using the provided safety strap; especially when working aloft, on vertical building elements or overhead.
  • In case of a power failure or when the mains plug is pulled, the magnetic holding power is not maintained.
  • When working overhead or on vertical surfaces, the coolant container must not be used. Use Slugger Cutting Paste instead.
  • Liquids penetrating your electric power tool maycause electric shock.
  • Avoid touching the drilled core that is automatically ejected by the pilot pin when the working procedure is finished.
  • Contact with the core when it is hot, or if it falls, can cause personal injuries.
  • Operate the power tool only from grounded contact sockets that comply with the specifications.
  • Do not use any connection cables that are damaged; use extension cables with a grounded contact that are checked at regular intervals.
  • A ground conductor without continuity can cause an electric shock. To prevent injuries, always keep your hands, clothing, etc. away from rotating swarf.

Fastening the safety strap
Always fasten the machine securely around the workpiece using the provided safety strap.

For switching the magnet ON
When working on materials that are nonferrous, suitable fixation devices obtainable as accessories from the manufacturer, e. g. suction plates, vacuum plates or pipe-drilling devices must be used. When working on steel materials with a material thickness of less than 12 mm / 1/2 in, the workpiece must be reinforced with an additional steel plate in order to guarantee the magnetic holding power. Press the magnet switch to energize the magnet.

Activating and deactivating the coolant-lubricant flow
The coolant level can be checked in the groove of the drilling shaft. Switch the coolant lubricant flow off as soon as the level is slightly below the opening. The coolant in the drilling shaft is sufficient for one drilling operation. Prior to the next drilling operation, activate and deactivate the coolant lubricant flow as described.FEIN JHM USA 101 X Slugger Portable

Repair and customer service.

Before mounting or replacing cutting tool or accessories, pull the power plug. This preventive safety measure rules out the danger of injuries through accidental starting of the power tool.

Exchangeable parts

  • If required, you can change the following parts yourself:
  • Application tools, coolant container, handle, chip guard, safety strap

Dove-tail guide
After several hours of operation, the play in the dove-tail guide can increase. As a consequence, the drill motor can glide along the dove-tail guide by itself. This can lead to the motor drifting down and damaging the cutting tool. In this case, retighten all fastening screws of the dove-tail guide correspondingly so that the drilling motor can easily be moved manually, yet does not glide by itself.

Service

Have maintenance carried out only through qualified personnel. Incorrectly mounted cables and components can cause serious injuries. Have the required service carried out only through an authorized Slugger repair facility. When replacing the power tool’s protective cable bushing or cord between the drill stand and drill motor is required, this must be carried out by Slugger or by an authorized Slugger Service Agent, in order to avoid hazardous situations. The current spare parts list for this power tool can be found in the Internet at www.fein.com.

Cleaning

Prior to any cleaning or maintenance, disconnect the power tool from the power supply in order to avoid accidents. When using in environments with conductive dust in the air, such as when working metals, this dust can settle in the interior of the power tool. This can impair the total insulation of the power tool. Therefore, regularly blow out the interior of the power tool from outside via the ventilation openings with dry, oil-free compressed air; always wear eye protection when doing this. For additional protection, connect a residual current device (RCD) on the line side. Do not attempt to clean clogged or dirty ventilation openings of the power tool with pointed metal objects; use non metal tools or objects if necessary. Do not use cleaning agents and solvents that can cause damage to plastic parts. These include: Gasoline, carbon-tetrachloride, chloric solvents, ammonia and domestic cleaning agents that contain ammonia.

Warranty and liability.
The warranty for the product is valid in accordance with the legal regulations in the country where it is marketed.

Environmental protection, disposal.
