For switching the magnet ON
(figure 9).
Pay attention that the set-up surface for
the magnetic foot is flat, clean, rust-free
and ice-free. Remove varnish, putty/filler
layers and other materials. Prevent an air gap
between the magnetic foot and the set-up
surface. The air gap reduces the magnetic
holding power.
When working, always use the magnetic
base; ensure that the magnetic holding
power is sufficient.
When working non-magnetic materials, suit-
able FEIN fastening devices, such as vacuum
plates or pipe drilling devices, which are avail-
able as accessories, must be used. Observe
the corresponding operating instructions for
these.
When working on steel materials with a
material thickness of less than 12 mm /

/

in,
the workpiece must be reinforced with an
additional steel plate in order to guarantee the
magnetic holding power.
If the magnet is not positioned on a magnetiz-
able plate or when the magnetic foot is defec-
tive, the motor will not start.
Danger of burns! The surface
of the magnet can reach high
temperatures. Do not touch the magnet with
your bare hands.
Press the magnet switch to energize the mag-
net.
