Frequently Asked Questions - VersaMAG Fein

How to activate and deactivate the VersaMAG magnet?
To activate the magnet, set the manual lever to position « I ». To deactivate, push the lever sleeve upwards and switch the lever to « O ». Only clamp and machine parts when the lever is in « I » position.
On which surfaces can the magnetic vise be used?
The magnet must be placed on a magnetizable, flat, clean surface, free from rust, coating or ice, with a minimum thickness of 12 mm. Avoid any air gap that would reduce the attractive force.
What is the maximum clamping force and how to secure the product?
The clamping force depends on the application; the manual indicates a maximum force of 1 kN outside the clamping zone. Always use the supplied tension strap to secure the vise. When drilling, prevent rotation by positive locking.
Can the magnetic vise be used for welding?
Yes, with the optional welding plate. Attach the ground connection directly to the workpiece or to the plate. Do not weld on the permanent magnet.
How to maintain the VersaMAG magnetic vise?
Regularly lubricate the sliding surfaces of the vise. Check the tightness of the screws under the movable jaw. Replace clamping jaws, stops or chip tray if worn.
How to check wear on the magnetic base?
The magnetic base has control notches. Before each use, check that all notches are still visible. If one is no longer fully recognizable, the base must be replaced by FEIN customer service.
What to do if the movable jaw is jammed or the attractive force decreases?
For a jammed jaw, loosen the two screws under the jaw and lubricate the surfaces. If the attractive force is reduced, the magnet may be defective: contact FEIN customer service; do not attempt to repair it yourself.
What safety precautions must be observed?
Do not use the magnet near pacemakers or magnetic data storage media. Keep a safe distance, use the tension strap, and wear snug-fitting clothing. The ambient temperature must be between -15 °C and +45 °C.
Can holes be drilled or screwed into the vise or magnet?
No. Any modification, drilling or screwing into the product or the permanent magnet is prohibited as it may damage the magnets and compromise safety.

Repair and customer service.

WARNING

Before mounting or replacing cutting tool or accessories, pull the power plug.

This preventive safety measure rules out the danger of injuries through accidental starting of the power tool.

If required, you can change the following parts yourself:

- Clamping jaws, stops, tray

Service.

Renew stickers and warning indications on the product when aged and worn.

After several hours of operation, the play in the movable clamping jaw can increase. In this case, tighten the two screws on the bottom side of the movable clamping jaw so that the clamping jaw can be easily moved by hand but does not tilt.

Wear detection on the magnetic foot (figure 16).

Moving the machine tool on the set-up surface causes wear to the magnetic foot. This may result in air gaps between the magnetic foot and the set-up surface and the magnetic holding power can be reduced. For checking, the magnetic foot is provided with indentations. Check for wear each time before using the machine. If one of these indentations is no longer fully visible, the magnetic foot must be replaced. Please refer to the FEIN customer service agent under www.fein.com.

WARNING

Do not remove the permanent magnets under any cir-

cumstances, as they can cause injuries and contusions or bruises.

Have your product repaired only through a qualified repair person and only using original replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the product is maintained.
