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 hacksaw for commercial use for cutting
round and other shaped work pieces of metal, plastic and
cement in weather-protected environments 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.
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.
Keep your hands well away from the saw blade. Do not
place your hands in front of or underneath the saw blade.
Any contact with the saw blade can cause personal inju-
ries. The saw blade can become very hot during the saw-
ing process.
Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on appli-
cation, use face shield, safety goggles or safety glasses.
Where 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 work piece firmly. A work piece that is
gripped tightly in a clamping device or vice, is more
secure than if held by hand.
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-
