For your safety.

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 thor-
oughly read and completely understood this
Instruction Manual and the enclosed “General

Safety Instructions” (document number
3 41 30 054 06 1). 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-guided sander for dry sanding with sanding sheets
on surfaces of metal, stone, plastic, wood, composite
materials, paint/varnish, filler and similar materials in
weather-protected environments with the application
tools and accessories recommended by FEIN.

Special safety instructions.

Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on appli-
cation, use face shield, safety goggles or safety glasses.
As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing protectors,
gloves and workshop apron capable of stopping 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 opera-
tion. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may
cause hearing loss.
Secure the workpiece 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 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 manufac-
turer.
Safe operation is not ensured merely because an
accessory fits your power tool.
Clean the ventilation openings on the power tool at regu-
lar intervals using non-metal tools.
The blower of the
motor draws dust into the housing. An excessive accu-
mulation of metallic dust can cause an electrical hazard.
Before putting into operation, check the mains connec-
tion and the mains plug for damage.

Recommendation: The tool should always be supplied
with power via a residual current device (RCD) with a
rated current of 30 mA or less.

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, 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 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.

Operating instructions.

Changing the sanding pad (see page 4-6).

Assembly is carried out in reverse order disassembly (as
shown in the figures).
The sanding pad and of the eccentric head are matched to
each other. When using with Ø 125 mm sanding pads,
the eccentric head intended for this size must also be
mounted.

Adjusting the sealing collar (see page 6).

Fasten the hose clip in such a manner that there is light
friction contact between the height-adjustable sealing
collar and the sanding pad.
