For your safety.

Do not use this machine before you have thor-
oughly read and completely understood this
Instruction Manual as well as the enclosed "General
Safety Instructions" (document number 3 41 30
054 06 1) and the GI 150/150 2H Instruction Manual,
including the figures, specifications and safety regulations.
Please also observe the relevant national regulations on
electrical safety and occupational safety.
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.
This machine may only be mounted on the
GI150/GI1502H belt grinder as an additional unit.
This machine must not be used in oily or wet workplaces,
or for processing of wood or plastics.
This machine may only be used in dry rooms.
Intended use of the machine.
The grinding device is intended for automatic grinding of
flat metal workpieces (except magnesium) with uniform
contact pressure and constant feed in connection with
the GI150/GI1502H belt grinder, using the grinding belts
approved by FEIN in weather-protected environments.
Special safety instructions.
Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on appli-
cation, use face shield, safety goggles or safety glasses.
Where 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 opera-
tion. Prolonged exposure to high intensity 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 according
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 com-
bustible 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.
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 regu-
lar 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.
Ensure that the machine is positioned securely and hori-
zontal. Serious injuries can be caused if the machine tips
over during operation.
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 protec-
tive 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 regu-
larly in accordance with statutory regulations. For
machines that have not been checked, there may be dan-
ger of electrical shock!
Check the rotation direction of the motor before starting
the operation of the machine for the first time. If the rota-
tion direction of the motor is incorrect, the workpiece
can be thrown from the machine and cause an accident.
The rotation direction may be changed only by a quali-
fiedelectrician.
