Intended use of the power tool:
Magnetic core drill unit for drilling with core drill bits
and solid drill bits, reaming, countersinking and tapping
on materials with surfaces suitable for magnets in
weather-protected environments using the application
tools and accessories recommended by FEIN.
In environments subject to interference, a reduction of
the operating quality is possible; this can include tem-
porary failure, temporary reduction of the function or
the intended operating behaviour, for the correction of
which intervention by the operator is required.
Safety warnings for core drills.
When performing drilling that requires the use of water,
route the water away from the operator's work area or
use a liquid collection device. Such precautionary
measures keep the operator's work area dry and
reduce the risk of electrical shock.
Operate power tool by the insulated grasping surfaces
when performing an operation where the cutting acces-
sory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory con-
tacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of
the power tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
Wear hearing protection when drilling. Exposure to
noise can cause hearing loss.
When the bit is jammed, stop applying downward pres-
sure and turn off the tool. Investigate and take correc-
tive actions to eliminate the cause of the bit jamming.
When restarting a drill in the workpiece, check that the
bit rotates freely before starting. If the bit is jammed, it
may not start, may overload the tool, or may cause the
drill to release from the workpiece.
When securing the drill stand with anchors and fasten-
ers to the workpiece, ensure that the anchoring used is
capable of holding and restraining the machine during
use. If the workpiece is weak or porous, the anchor
may pull out causing the drill stand to release from the
workpiece.
Ensure there is sufficient vacuum before and during
drilling. If the vacuum is insufficient, the pad may
release from the workpiece.
Never perform overhead and wall drilling with the
machine secured by the vacuum plate only. If the vac-
uum is lost, the vacuum plate will release from the
workpiece.
When drilling through walls or ceilings, ensure to pro-
tect persons and the work area on the other side. The
bit may extend through the hole or the core may fall
out on the other side.
Do not use this tool for overhead drilling with water
supply. Water entering the power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
Special safety instructions.
Do not use a damaged power tool. Before each use of
the power tool, check the housing and other compo-
nents for damage such as cracks or breakage.
Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on the
application, use a face shield, safety goggles or safety
glasses. Wear ear protection. The safety glasses must
be capable of protecting against flying particles gener-
ated by the various different operations. Prolonged
exposure to high intensity noise may cause loss of hear-
ing.
Do not touch the sharp edges of the core drill bit. Dan-
ger of injury.
To avoid injuries, check the core drill bits prior to start-
ing the work. Use only undamaged core drill bits that
are not deformed. Damaged or deformed core drill bits
can cause serious injury.
Before putting into operation: Mount the contact pro-
tector to the machine.
Always secure the power tool with with the provided
safety strap. When carrying out such work, beware of
falling objects, such as core bits or chips.
Carry out work on vertical construction elements or
overhead without use of the hand pump. Use cooling-
lubricant spray for these applications. Fluids entering
into the power tool create the risk of electric shock.
Avoid touching the drilled core that is automatically
ejected by the centering pin when the working proce-
dure is finished. Contact with the core when it is hot,
or if it falls, can cause personal injuries.
To prevent injuries, always keep your hands, clothing,
etc. away from rotating swarf. The swarf can cause inju-
ries. Always use the chip guard.
Do not attempt to remove the cutting tool if it still turns.
This can lead to serious injuries.
Beware of any concealed electric cables, gas or water
conduits. Check the working area before commencing
work, e. g. with a metal detector.
Do not work with materials containing magnesium.
Danger of fire.
Do not work with CFRP (carbon-fiber-reinforced poly-
mer) and materials containing asbestos. These materi-
als are considered carcinogenic.
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.
Do not overload the power tool or the storage case and
do not use it as a ladder or stand. Overloading or stand-
ing on the power tool or the storage case can lead to
the upward shifting of the centre of gravity of the
power tool or the storage case, and its tipping over.
Do not use accessories which are not specifically
designed and recommended by the power tool manu-
facturer. Safe operation is not ensured merely because
an accessory fits your power tool.
Clean the ventilation openings on the power tool at reg-
ular 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.
Use and handling of the battery (battery pack).
These safety warnings apply only for 18V FEIN AMP-
Share Li-ion batteries.
