Kickback and related warnings
Kickback is the sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged
rotating application tool. Pinching or snagging causes
the rotating application tool to rapidly stop. This can
cause a power tool to be forced in the opposite direc-
tion to the rotating application tool at the point of bind-
ing.
For example, if the indexable insert is snagged or
pinched in the workpiece, the edge of the indexable
insert entering into the workpiece can get caught, caus-
ing the indexable insert to break out or cause kickback.
The indexable-insert holder may either jump toward or
away from the operator, depending on the direction of
the indexable-insert holder at the point of binding.
Indexable inserts can also break under these conditions.
Kickback is the result of power tool misuse or incorrect
operating procedures. It can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as described below.
Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position your
body and arms to allow you to resist kickback forces.
The operator can control torque reactions or kickback
forces, if proper precautions are taken.
Use special care when working corners, sharp edges
etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory. Cor-
ners, sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag
the rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kick-
back.
Always feed the application tool into the material in the
same direction as the cutting edge is exiting from the
material (which is the same direction as the chips are
thrown). Guiding the power tool in the wrong direction
causes the cutting edge of the application tool to climb
out of the workpiece and pull the tool in the direction
of this feed.
Do not jam or seize the indexable insert or apply exces-
sive pressure. Do not set a larger bevel height than the
maximum allowed. Overstressing the indexable inserts
increases the loading and susceptibility to wedging or
snagging in the cut, and thus increases the possibility of
kickback or indexable insert breakage.
Do not position your body directly in front or behind the
indexable insert when operating the machine, position
yourself parallel to the cutting surface. When moving
the indexable inserts into the workpiece any potential
kickback could result in contact with the indexable
inserts.
Turn or replace blunt indexable inserts or those with
worn off coating in good time. Blunt indexable inserts
increase the risk of the machine jamming and breaking
out.
Do not use the power tool without the guide plate.
Further safety warnings
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.
Use ear protection during operation.
Indexable inserts, indexable-insert holder, workpiece
and chippings can be hot after working. Wear protec-
tive gloves.
Use only sharp, undamaged indexable inserts.
Keep your hands away from the milling area and the
application tools.
Do not direct the power tool against yourself, other per-
sons or animals. Danger of injury from sharp or hot
application tools.
Use a stationary extraction system and frequently blow
out the ventilation slots. When working metal under
extreme operating conditions, it is possible for conduc-
tive dust to settle in the interior of the power tool. The
total insulation of the power tool can be impaired.
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 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.
Replace a damaged or cracked auxiliary handle. Do not
operate the power tool with a defective auxiliary han-
dle.
Use and handling of the battery (battery pack).
These safety warnings apply only for 18V FEIN AMP-
Share Li-ion batteries.
Use the battery only in AMPShare partner products. 18V
batteries marked with AMPShare are fully compatible
with the following products:
– All products of the FEIN-18V-AMPShare system
– All 18V products from AMPShare partners.
When working with and charging incorrect, damaged,
repaired or reconditioned batteries, imitations or other
brands, there is danger of fire and/or explosion.
Observe the battery recommendations in the operating
instructions for your product. Only in this way can the
battery and the product be operated safely, and the bat-
teries are protected from dangerous overload.
Only charge the batteries with chargers recommended
by FEIN or one of the AMPShare partners. A charger that
is suitable one type of battery pack may create a risk of
fire when used with another battery pack.
The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure full
battery capacity, completely charge the battery in the
battery charger before using for the first time.
Store batteries out of the reach of children.
Batteries must not be disassembled, opened or reduced
in size. Do not subject batteries to mechanical impact
or shock. Hazardous vapours and fluid can escape in
case of damage and improper use of the battery. The
vapours can irritate the respiratory system. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause skin irritations or
burns.
In case of skin contact with battery fluid, rinse immedi-
ately with plenty of water. In case of eye contact with
battery fluid, wash out the eye with clean water and
immediately seek a doctor for treatment!
