For your safety
WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow
the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
Do not use this power tool before you have thoroughly read and completely understood this Instruction Manual and the enclosed “General
Safety Instructions” (document number 3 41 30 465 06 0). 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.
Intended use of the power tool:
Hand-held cordless drill/driver for screwing in and unscrewing screws and
nuts, and for drilling and screw-driving in metal, wood, plastic, ceramics, as
well as for tapping in weather-protected environments without water supply
using the application tools and accessories recommended by FEIN.
Safety warnings for drills
Safety instructions for all operations.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an
operation where the cutting accessory or fasteners may contact hidden wiring
or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric
shock.
Safety instructions when using long drill bits.
Never operate at higher speed than the maximum speed rating of the drill bit.
At higher speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely
without contacting the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
Always start drilling at low speed and with the bit tip in contact with the
workpiece. At higher speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate
freely without contacting the workpiece, resulting in personal injury.
Apply pressure only in direct line with the bit and do not apply excessive
pressure. Bits can bend causing break-age or loss of control, resulting in
personal injury.
Special safety instructions
Beware of any concealed electric cables, gas or water conduits. Check the
working area before commencing work, e. g. with a metal detector.
Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on application, use face shield,
safety goggles or safety glasses. Where appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing
protectors, gloves and workshop apron capable of stop-ping small abrasive or
workpiece 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.
Secure the work piece 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.
Do not work with materials containing magnesium. Danger of fire.
Do not work with CFRP (carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer) and materials
containing asbestos. These materials are considered carcinogenic.
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.
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.
Clean the ventilation openings on the power tool at regular intervals using
non-metal tools. The blower of the motor draws dust into the housing. An
excessive accumulation of metallic dust can cause an electrical hazard.
Never look or stare into the light of the power tool’s lamp from a short
distance. Never point the light of the lamp into the eyes of other persons in
close vicinity. The radiation produced by the lamp can be harmful for the eye.
Do not direct the power tool against yourself, other per-sons or animals.
Danger of injury from sharp or hot application tools.
Use and handling of the battery (battery pack).
To avoid hazardous situations such as burns, fire, explosion, skin injuries,
and other injuries when handling the battery, observe the following
instructions:
Batteries must not be disassembled, opened or reduced in size. Do not subject
batteries to mechanical impact or shock. Hazardous vapors and fluid can escape
in case of damage and improper use of the battery. The vapors can irritate the
respiratory system. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause skin irritations
or burns.
When battery fluid from a damaged battery has come into contact with objects
close by, check the respective components, clean them or replace them as
required.
Keep the battery away from heat and fire. Do not store the battery in direct
sunlight.
Do not remove the battery from its original packaging until it is going to be
used.
Before any work on the machine itself, remove the battery from the power tool.
If the power tool accidentally starts, there is danger of injury.
Remove the battery only when the power tool is switched off.
Keep the battery away from children.
Keep the battery clean and protect it against moisture and water. Clean
contaminated battery terminals and power tool connections with a dry, clean
cloth.
Use only intact original FEIN batteries that are intended for your power tool.
When working with and charging incorrect, damaged, repaired or reconditioned
batteries, imitations or other brands, there is danger of fire and/or
explosion.
Follow the safety warnings in the operating instructions of the battery
charger.
Hand/arm vibrations
The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured
in accordance with a stand-raised test given in EN 62841 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 expo-sure level over
the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects
of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands
warm, organization of work patterns.
Handling hazardous dusts
For work procedures with this power tool where material is removed, dusts
develop that can be hazardous to one’s health.
Contact with or inhaling some dust types, e. g. asbestos and asbestos-
containing materials, lead-containing coatings, metal, some wood types,
minerals, silicate particles 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 specialists.
Wood and light-metal dust, hot mixtures of grinding dust and chemical
materials can self-ignite under unfavorable 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
instructions, as well as the relevant regulations in your country for the
materials being worked.
Operating Instructions
