For your safety.
Read all safety warnings and all instruc-
WARNING
tions. 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 nibbler for commercial use for cutting sheet
metal, cut-outs and tight curves in weather-protected
environments using the application tools and accessories
recommended by FEIN.
Special safety instructions.
Use the auxiliary handles supplied with the power tool. A
loss of control over the power tool can cause personal
injuries.
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 generated by
the various different operations. Prolonged exposure to
high intensity noise may cause loss of hearing.
Wear protective gloves. Hot and sharp chips exit the chip
ejector at high speed, and can lead to injuries.
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.
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 tool manufacturer. Just because
the accessory can be attached to your power tool, it does
not assure safe operation.
Clean the ventilation openings on the power tool at regular
intervals using non-metal tools. The blower of the motor
draws dust into the housing. An excessive accumulation
of metallic dust can cause an electrical hazard.
Before putting into operation, check the mains connection
and the mains plug for damage.
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.
20
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.
Guide the power tool toward the work piece only
when switched on.
While cutting, hold the power tool as upright as possible
to the work-piece surface.
Guide the power tool uniformly and with light feed in the
cutting direction. Excessive feed reduces the tool life of
the application tools.
Do not cut steel sheets where welded. Do not cut lay-
ered sheets exceeding the max. work-piece thickness.
To increase the tool life of punch and die, it is recom-
mended to apply a lubricating agent alongside the
intended cutting line:
– for cuts in steel sheet: cutting paste or cutting oil,
– for cuts in aluminium: Petroleum.
For inside cuts, a pilot hole is required; see technical data
for diameters.
Do not switch the power tool off until after having
removed it from the cutting path.
The symptom for worn punches and dies are a clearly
increased feed force at lower working progress.
BLK1.3T/BLK1.3CS/BLK1.6/BLK1.6L: Punch and die cannot
be reground.
BLK2.0/BLK3.5/BLK5.0: The punch – not the die – can be
reground as long as the length of the reground punch
does not fall below the minimum die length.
