For your safety.
Do not use this machine before you have thor-
oughly read and completely understood theseop-
erating instructions, including the figures,
specifications, and safety regulations.
Please also observe the relevant national industrial safe-
tyregulations (e. g. in Germany: BGV A2, BGR 500).
Non-observance of the safety instructions in the said
documentation can lead to an electric shock, burns
and/or severe injuries.
This Instruction Manual should be kept for later use and
enclosed with the power tool, should it be passed on
or sold.
Intended use of the machine.
This machine is intended for grinding metal materials
(except magnesium) and for grinding with the radius
grinding module GRIT GXR or the cylindrical grinding
device GRIT GXC using the grinding belts recom-
mended by FEIN in weather-protected environments.
Special safety instructions.
Ensure stable positioning and a level set-up of the sub
base. Fasten the sub base to the floor. If the sub base
tips over during working, this can cause serious injuries.
Use suitable mounting material to mount the machine
to the sub base. Faulty assembly can cause the machine
to loosen from the sub base during operation and lead
to serious accidents.
Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on
application, use face shield, safety goggles or safety
glasses. Where appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing
protectors, gloves and workshop apron capable of stop-
ping small abrasive or workpiece fragments. The eye
protection must be capable of stopping flying debris
generated by various operations. The dust mask or res-
pirator must be capable of filtrating particles generated
by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high inten-
sity noise may cause hearing loss.
While working, do not wear loose clothing, jewellery or
open, long hair. Despite protective devices, loose
objects can be snagged or caught by moving parts and
lead to injury.
Do not use worn, torn or heavily clogged grinding belts.
Handle grinding belts carefully and store them accord-
ing to the manufacturer's instructions. Do not bend or
fold grinding belts! Damaged grinding belts can tear, be
flung away and injure someone.
Do not use grinding belts or other accessories which
are not specifically designed and recommended by the
power tool manufacturer. Safe operation is not ensured
merely because a grinding belt or accessory fits your
machine.
Always use the protective devices attached on the
machine. The protective devices must be securely
mounted to the machine in order to achieve maximum
safety. The protective devices are supposed to protect
the user from grinding particles thrown from the
machine and from accidental contact with the grinding
belt.
Warning! Danger of fire and explosion! When grinding
metals (e.g., aluminium), dust develops that may be
combustible or explosive. Do not operate the machine
near flammable materials. Sparks could cause these
materials to ignite.
Warning! Danger of fire! When grinding metals, glowing
metal and sanding-belt particles develop that are col-
lected in the chip/grinding-dust box. Before emptying,
the contents of the chip/grinding-dust box must have
cooled down sufficiently and may only be disposed of
in suitable containers.
Pay attention that other persons are not put at risk from
sparking. Remove flammable materials in close vicinity.
Sparking occurs when grinding metal.
Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work area.
Anyone entering the work area must wear personal pro-
tective equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of a bro-
ken accessory may fly away and cause injury beyond
immediate area of operation.
The workpiece must always lie securely on the grinding
rest and the stop. Workpieces that are too small or too
thin may not be worked. Danger of injury from work-
pieces being thrown from the machine.
The surface being worked can become very hot. Do not
touch it with your hands.
Never touch the running grinding belt. Danger of
injury.
In situations of danger, immediately press the safety
pushbutton. The machine runs on for approx. 50 sec-
onds.
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.
The mains plug of the machine may be mounted only by
a qualified electrician. The protective conductor in the
mains socket outlet must be connected with the pro-
tective earthing of the mains supply.
Pull out the mains plug for maintenance and repair!
Switching the machine on unintentionally can lead to
serious injuries.
Have the electrical safety of the machine checked reg-
ularly in accordance with statutory regulations. For
machines that have not been checked, there may be
danger of electrical shock!
Check the rotation direction of the motor before start-
ing the operation of the machine for the first time. If the
rotation direction of the motor is incorrect, the work-
piece can be thrown from the machine and cause an
accident. The rotation direction may be changed only
by a qualifiedelectrician.
Make sure that you or other persons are not standing
directly next to the grinding belt when switching the
machine on. The grinding belt can tear apart and cause
serious injuries.
