For your safety.
Read all safety warnings and
all instructions. Failure to fol-
low 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 thoroughly read and completely
understood this Instruction Manual, including
the figures, specifications, safety regulations
and the signs indicating DANGER, WARN-
ING and CAUTION.
Only carry out such operations with this
power tool as intended for by FEIN. Only use
application tools and accessories that have
been released by FEIN.
Please also observe the relevant national
industrial safety regulations.
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.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers
to your mains-operated (corded) power tool
or battery operated (cordless) power tool.
General safety rules.
1) Work area safety
a)Keep work area clean and well lit. Clut-
tered or dark areas invite accidents.
b)Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power
tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away
while operating a power tool. Distrac-
tion can cause you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a)Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not
use any adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools. Unmodified
plugs and matching outlets will reduce
risk of electric shock.
b)Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces such as pipes, radia-
tors, ranges and refrigerators. There is
an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric
shock.
d)Do not abuse the cord. Never use the
cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool. Keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for out-
door use. Use of a cord suitable for out-
door use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp loca-
tion is unavoidable, use a residual cur-
rent device (RCD) protected supply. Use
of an RCD reduces the risk of electric
shock.
3) Personal safety
a)Stay alert, watch what you are doing
and use common sense when operating
a power tool. Do not use a power tool
while you are tired or under the influ-
ence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious per-
sonal injury.
b)Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing pro-
tection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source and/or bat-
tery pack, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your
finger on the switch or energising
power tools that have the switch on
invites accidents.
d)Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a rotat-
ing part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
WARNING

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth-
ing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can
be caught in moving parts.
g)If devices are provided for the connec-
tion of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected
and properly used. Use of dust collec-
tion can reduce dust-related hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a)Do not force the power tool. Use the cor-
rect power tool for your application. The
correct power tool will do the job bet-
ter and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
b)Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any power
tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d)Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfa-
miliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands
of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for mis-
alignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condi-
tion that may affect the power tool’s
operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
g)Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous sit-
uation.
5) Service
a)Have your power tool serviced by a qual-
ified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that
the safety of the power tool is main-
tained.
Special safety instructions.
Safety Warnings common for
Polishing
This power tool is intended to function as a
polisher. Read all safety warnings, instruc-
tions, illustrations and specifications pro-
vided with this power tool. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Operations such as grinding, sanding, wire
brushing or cutting-off are not recommended
to be performed with this power tool. Opera-
tions for which the power tool was not
designed may create a hazard and cause per-
sonal injury.
Do not use accessories which are not specifi-
cally designed and recommended by the tool
manufacturer. Just because the accessory can
be attached to your power tool, it does not
assure safe operation.
The rated speed of the accessory must be at
least equal to the maximum speed marked on
the power tool. Accessories running faster
than their rated speed can break and fly apart.
The outside diameter and the thickness of
your accessory must be within the capacity
rating of your power tool. Incorrectly sized
accessories cannot be adequately guarded or
controlled.

The arbor size of wheels, flanges, backing
pads or any other accessory must properly fit
the spindle of the power tool. Accessories
with arbor holes that do not match the
mounting hardware of the power tool will
run out of balance, vibrate excessively and
may cause loss of control.
Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each
use inspect the accessory such as abrasive
wheels for chips and cracks, backing pad for
cracks, tear or excess wear, wire brush for
loose or cracked wires. If power tool or acces-
sory is dropped, inspect for damage or install
an undamaged accessory. After inspecting
and installing an accessory, position yourself
and bystanders away from the plane of the
rotating accessory and run the power tool at
maximum no-load speed for one minute.
Damaged accessories will normally break
apart during this testtime.
Wear personal protective equipment. Depend-
ing on application, use face shield, safety
goggles or safety glasses. As appropriate,
wear dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves
and workshop apron capable of stopping
small abrasive or workpiece fragments. The
eye protection must be capable of stopping
flying debris generated by various operations.
The dust mask or respirator must be capable
of filtrating particles generated by your oper-
ation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity
noise may cause hearing loss.
Keep bystanders a safe distance away from
work area. Anyone entering the work area
must wear personal protective equipment.
Fragments of workpiece or of a broken acces-
sory may fly away and cause injury beyond
immediate area of operation.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping sur-
faces only, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory may contact hid-
den wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory
contacting a “live” wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool “live” and could
give the operator an electric shock.
Position the cord clear of the spinning acces-
sory. If you lose control of the power tool,
the cord may be cut or snagged and your hand
or arm may be pulled into the spinning acces-
sory.
Never lay the power tool down until the acces-
sory has come to a complete stop. The spin-
ning accessory may grab the surface and pull
the power tool out of your control.
Do not run the power tool while carrying it at
your side. Accidental contact with the spin-
ning accessory could snag your clothing, pull-
ing the accessory into your body.
Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents.
The motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the
housing and excessive accumulation of pow-
dered metal may cause electrical hazards.
Do not operate the power tool near flammable
materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
Do not use accessories that require liquid
coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants
may result in electrocution or shock.
Kickback and related warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or
snagged rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or
any other accessory. Pinching or snagging
causes rapid stalling of the rotating accessory
which in turn causes the uncontrolledpower
tool to be forced in the direction opposite of
the accessory’s rotation at the point of the
binding.
For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged
or pinched by the workpiece, the edge of the
wheel that is entering into the pinch point can
dig into the surface of the material causing the
wheel to climb out or kick out. The wheel
may either jump toward or away from the
operator, depending on direction of the
wheel’s movement at the point of pinching.
Abrasive wheels may also break under these
conditions.
Kickback is the result of power tool misuse
and/or incorrect operating procedures or
conditions and can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as given below.
Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and
position your body and arm to allow you to
resist kickback forces. Always use auxiliary
handle, if provided, for maximum control over
kickback or torque reaction during start-up.
The operator can control torque reactions or
kickback forces, if proper precautions are
taken.
Never place your hand near the rotating
accessory. Accessory may kickback over
your hand.
OBJ_BUCH-0000000046-001.book Page 5 Monday, August 1, 2011 1:33 PM

6en
Do not position your body in the area where
power tool will move if kickback occurs. Kick-
back will propel the tool in direction opposite
to the wheel’s movement at the point of snag-
ging.
Use special care when working corners, sharp
edges, etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the
accessory. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing
have a tendency to snag the rotating accessory
and cause loss of control or kickback.
Do not attach a saw chain woodcarving blade
or toothed saw blade. Such blades create fre-
quent kickback and loss of control over the
power tool.
Safety warnings specific for polishing
operations
Do not allow any loose portion of the polishing
bonnet or its attachment strings to spin
freely. Tuck away or trim any loose attach-
ment strings. Loose and spinning attachment
strings can entangle your fingers or snag on
the workpiece.
Further safety warnings
Use elastic spacers/liners when these are
provided with the grinding accessory.
Make sure that the application tools are
mounted in accordance with the manufactur-
ers instructions. The mounted application
tools must be able to rotate freely. Incorrectly
mounted application tools can become loose
during operation and be thrown from the
machine.
Handle grinding accessories carefully and
store them according to the manufacturer’s
instructions. Damaged grinding accessories
can develop cracks and burst during opera-
tion.
Do not direct the power tool against yourself,
other persons or animals. Danger of injury
from sharp or hot application tools.
Use a stationary extraction system, blow out
ventilation slots frequently and connect a
residual current device (RCD) on the line side.
When working metal under extreme operat-
ing conditions, it is possible for conductive
dust to settle in the interior of the power
tool. The total insulation of the power tool
can be impaired.
This double-insulated power tool is equipped
with a polarized plug (one contact is wider
than the other). The plug will only fit into the
polarized socket outlet in one position. Turn
the plug if it does not fit completely into the
socket outlet. If the plug still does not fit, have
a qualified electrician install a polarized
socket outlet. Do not modify or alter the plug
under any circumstances. Double-insulated
power tools neither require a three-core
power cable nor a power connection with
ground contact.
Operate the power tool only off of power sup-
plies whose voltage and frequency values
correspond with the values on the type plate
of the power tool.
When operating the power tool in a damp
environment, it must be connected via a
ground fault circuit interrupter (g.f.c.i.).
Using special rubber protective gloves and
footwear increase your own safety.
Use clamps or another practical way to
secure and support the workpiece to a stable
platform. Holding the work by hand or
against your body leaves it unstable and may
lead to loss of control.
Before mounting or replacing application
tools or accessories, pull the power plug. This
preventive safety measure rules out the dan-
ger of injuries through accidental starting of
the power tool.
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 recom-
mended.
Always work with the auxiliary handle. The
auxiliary handle ensures reliable guiding of
the power tool.
Before putting into operation, check the
mains connection and the mains plug for
damage.
Recommendation: The tool should always be
supplied with power via a residual current
device (RCD) with a rated current of 30 mA or
less.

Handling hazardous dusts.
When working with power
tools, such as when grinding,
sanding, polishing, sawing or for other work
procedures where material is removed, dusts
develop that are both hazardous to one’s
health and can spontaneously combust or be
explosive.
Contact with or inhaling some dust types can
trigger allergic reactions to the operator or
bystanders and/or lead to respiratory infec-
tions, cancer, birth defects or other reproduc-
tive harm.
Examples of such materials and therein con-
tained chemicals, where hazardous dusts can
develop when working them, are:
–Asbestos and materials containing asbes-
tos;
–Lead-containing coatings, some wood
types such as beech and oak;
–Minerals and metal;
–Silicate particles from bricks, concrete and
other materials containing stone;
–Solvent from solvent-containing paint/var-
nish;
–Arsenic, chromium and other wood pre-
servatives;
–Materials for pesticide treatment on boot
and ship hulls;
–Stainless steel dust, metal dust and non-
ferrous metal dust.
To minimise the unwanted intake of these
materials:
–Use dust extraction matched appropriately
for the developing dust.
–Use personal protective equipment, such
as a P2 filter-class dust protection mask.
–Provide for good ventilation of the work-
place.
The risk from inhaling dusts depends on the
frequency how often these materials are
worked. Materials containing asbestos may
only be worked by specialists.
Wood and light-metal dust can
cause spontaneous combus-
tion or explosions.
Hot mixtures of sanding dust and paint/var-
nish remainders or other chemical materials
in the filter bag or the vac filter can self-ignite
under unfavorable conditions, such as spark-
ing from sanding metal, continuous sunlight
or high ambient temperatures. To prevent
this:
–Avoid overheating the material being
sanded and the power tool.
–Empty the dust collector/container in time.
–Observe the material manufacturer’s
working instructions.
–Observe the relevant regulations in your
country for the materials being worked.
Hand/arm vibrations.
While working with this power
tool, hand/arm vibrations
occur. These can lead to health impairments.
The vibration emission value
during actual use of the power
tool can differ from the declared value
depending on the ways in which the tool is
used.
It is necessary to identify safety
measures to protect the oper-
ator that are based on an estimation of expo-
sure in the actual conditions of use.
The vibration emission level given in this
information sheet has been measured in
accordance with a standardised test given in
EN 60745 and may be used to compare one
tool with another. It may be used for a pre-
liminary assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration emission level repre-
sents the main applications of the tool. How-
ever 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 operator from the effects of vibration
such as: maintain the tool and the accessories,
keep the hands warm, organisation of work
patterns.

tool from the power supply in order to avoid
accidents.
When using in environments
with conductive dust in the air,
such as when working metals, this dust can
settle in the interior of the power tool. This
can impair the total insulation of the power
tool. Therefore, regularly blow out the interior
of the power tool from outside via the ventila-
tion openings with dry, oil-free compressed
air; always wear eye protection when doing
this. For additional protection, connect a
ground fault circuit interrupter (g.f.c.i.) on the
line side. Do not attempt to clean
clogged or dirty ventilation
openings of the power tool with pointed
metal objects; use non-metal tools or objects
for this.
Do not use cleaning agents
and solvents that can cause
damage to plastic parts. These include: Gaso-
line, carbon-tetrachloride, chloric solvents,
ammonia and domestic cleaning agents that
contain ammonia.
If the supply cable of this
power tool is damaged, it
must be replaced by a specially prepared cable
available through the FEIN customer service
center.
