Intended use of the power tool:
hand-held core drill for drilling in wood, metal, plastic,
ceramics and tapping in weather-protected environments
without water supply using the application tools and
accessories recommended by FEIN.
This power tool is also suitable for use with AC genera-
tors with sufficient power output that correspond to the
Standard ISO 8528, design type G2. This Standard is par-
ticularly not complied with when the so-called distortion
factor exceeds 10 %. When in doubt, please refer to the
generator instruction/specification guide.
Special safety instructions.
Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss of
control can cause personal injury.
Hold power tool by the insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the cutting accessory
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting acces-
sory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool "live" and could give the opera-
tor an electric shock.
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.
Beware of any concealed electric cables, gas or water
conduits. Check the working area before commencing
work, e. g. with a metal detector.
Avoid contact with the core, which is automatically thrust
out by the pilot bit after the working procedure. Contact
with the hot or falling down core can lead to injury.
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 materials containing magnesium. Danger of
fire.
Do not work CFP (carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer) and
materials containing asbestos. These materials are con-
sidered carcinogenic.
Do not direct the power tool against yourself, other per-
sons or animals. Danger of injury from sharp or hot
application tools.
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.
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.
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 grinding 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.
Operating Instructions.
Change the gear setting or the rotation direction only
after the motor has come to a complete stop.
