Fein ABLK 1.6 - Manual (Page 15)

15 en
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 standard-
ised test given in EN 60745 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 exposure level
over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the opera-
tor from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool
and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation
of work patterns.
Operating Instructions.
Guide the power tool toward the work piece only
when switched on.
While cutting, hold the power tool as upright as possible
to the work-piece surface.
Guide the power tool uniformly and with light feed in the
cutting direction. Excessive feed reduces the tool life of
the application tools.
Do not cut steel sheets where welded. Do not cut lay-
ered sheets exceeding the max. work-piece thickness.
To increase the tool life of punch and die, it is recom-
mended to apply a lubricating agent alongside the
intended cutting line:
– For cuts in steel sheet: Cutting paste or cutting oil.
– For cuts in aluminium: Petroleum.
For inside cuts, a pilot hole is required; see “Technical
Data” for diameters.
Do not switch the power tool off until after having
removed it from the cutting path.
The symptom for worn punches and dies are a clearly
increased feed force at lower working progress.
Punch and die cannot be reground.
Handling the battery.
Operate and charge the battery only within the battery
operating-temperature range of 0°C – 45°C (32°F –
113°F). At the beginning of the charging procedure, the
battery temperature must be within the battery operat-
ing-temperature 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 operat-
ing 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 ventila-
tion slots frequently with dry and oil-free compressed air.
Lightly grease the sliding surfaces between die
holder and punch.
If required, you can change the following parts yourself:

Environmental protection, disposal.
Packaging, worn out power tools and accessories should
be sorted for environmental-friendly recycling.
Dispose of batteries only when discharged.
For batteries that are not completely discharged, insulate
the terminals with tape as a protective measure against
short-circuiting.
