Always work using the auxiliary handle. The auxiliary han-
dle ensures reliable guidance of the power tool.
Before putting into operation, check the mains connection
and the mains plug for damage.
Use a stationary extraction system, blow out ventilation
slots frequently and connect a residual current device
(RCD) on the line side. When working metal under
extreme operating conditions, it is possible for conduc-
tive dust to settle in the interior of the power tool. The
total insulation of the power tool can be impaired.

Handling hazardous dusts

For work procedures with this power tool where mate-
rial 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 coat-
ings, metal, some wood types, minerals, silicate particles
from materials containing stone, paint solvents, wood
preservatives, and antifouling paints for vessels, can trig-
ger 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 provide for good ventilation of
the workplace. Leave the processing of asbestos-contain-
ing materials to specialists.
Wood and light-metal dust, hot mixtures of sanding dust
and chemical materials can self-ignite under unfavourable
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 rele-
vant regulations in your country for the materials being
worked.

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.
The vibrational emission values are given for polishing
with lambskin and sanding with sanding sheet. Other
applications, such as polishing with other polishing acces-
sories than the lambskin can lead to other vibrational
emission values.

Operating instructions.

Press the locking button only when the motor is
stopped. (see page 5)

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. The total insulation of the power tool can be
impaired. Blow out the interior of the power tool via the
ventilation slots frequently with dry and oil-free com-
pressed air, and connect a residual current device (RCD)
on the line side.
If the supply cord of this power tool is damaged it must
be replaced by a specially prepared cord available
through the FEIN customer service centre.
If required, you can change the following parts yourself:
Application tools, auxiliary handle, safety guard, work
arbors, flanges.
