USER MANUAL WM10DBL HiKOKI

WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered 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. Distractions 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, radiators, 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 outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

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 influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non- skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection 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 battery 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 rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. 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 clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust related hazards.

4) Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better 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 adjustments, 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 unfamiliar 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 misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools 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 situation.

5) Battery tool use and care

a) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack. b) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire. (Original instructions) 01Eng_WM10DBL_WE 12/2/11, 13:075English

c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire. d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained. PRECAUTION Keep children and infirm persons away. When not in use, tools should be stored out of reach of children and infirm persons.

How to make the batteries perform longer (1) Recharge the batteries before they become completely exhausted. When you feel that the power of the tool becomes weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery. If you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric current, the battery may be damaged and its life will become shorter. (2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures. A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after use. If such a battery is recharged immediately after use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and the battery life will be shortened. Leave the battery and recharge it after it has cooled for a while. CAUTION 䡬 If the battery is charged while it is heated because it has been left for a long time in a location subject to direct sunlight or because the battery has just been used, the pilot lamp of the charger lights for 1 second, does not light for 0.5 seconds (off for 0.5 seconds). In such a case, first let the battery cool, then start charging. 䡬 When the pilot lamp flickers (at 0.2-second intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in the charger’s battery connector. If there are no foreign objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service Center. 䡬 Since the built-in micro computer takes about 3 seconds to confirm that the battery being charged with UC10SL2 / UC10SFL is taken out, wait for a minimum of 3 seconds before reinserting it to continue charging. If the battery is reinserted within 3 seconds, the battery may not be properly charged.

1. Preparing and checking the work environment

Make sure that the work site meets all the conditions laid forth in the precautions.

2. Checking the battery

Make sure that the battery is installed firmly. If it is at all loose it could come off and cause an accident. Table 1 Indications of the pilot lamp Lights for 0.5 seconds. Does not light for

(1) Default setting for operation mode The following four modes are set as default operation mode on this machine. NOTE: 䡬 The tightening torque obtained in an actual tightening operation varies with the screw or clamping member used. Try to tighten a few screws to confirm the appropriate tightening torque. 䡬 Use the Bolt mode to tighten bolts. 䡬 Mode switching is impossible if the mode selection switch is operated with the switch turned on. Be sure to turn off the switch before performing mode switching. (2) Built-in operation modes and mode rewriting function of this product The machine includes 20 operation modes in total. The setting of each mode is described below. You can freely select up to four operation modes by using an optional communication adaptor. It is also possible to limit the number of switchable modes to one or two, or to set all of the four modes to a same operation mode.

3. Installing the bit

䡬 Driver bit Always follow the following procedure to install driver bit. (Fig. 4) (1) Pull the guide sleeve back. (2) Insert the bit into the hexagonal hole in the anvil. (3) Release the guide sleeve and it returns to its original position. CAUTION: If the guide sleeve does not return to its original position, then the bit is not installed properly. 䡬 Drill bit

• A drill with hexagonal shank can be attached directly to the tool.

• To attach a drill without hexagonal shank, you need to have the drill chuck adapter set sold separately. (1) Insert the drill bit into the chuck. (2) Use the chuck key to secure the drill bit, tightening the chuck by each of the three holes in turn. (Fig. 5)

• Use an iron drill to make a pilot hole for a wood screw or a 10 mm or smaller hole. (1) Insert the drill bit into the chuck. (2) Use the chuck key to secure the drill bit, tightening the chuck by each of the three holes in turn. (Fig. 5)

How to make the batteries perform longer 䡬 Recharge the batteries before they become completely exhausted. When you feel that the power of the tool becomes weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery. If you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric current, the battery may be damaged and its life will become shorter.

1. Mode selection and rewriting functions

The operation mode is switched each time you press the mode selection switch provided on the side of the tool body. Select an operation mode corresponding to your desired operation (Fig. 6). NOTE: The mode selection can be switched only after installing the charger to the body and once pulling the switch. Symbol Operation mode Example of applicable operation

Self drilling screw "2" Tightening of self drilling screw D Drill Drilling 01Eng_WM10DBL_WE 12/2/11, 15:3910English

The maximum torque in the list is the set maximum torque that is generated by the tool itself in a selected operation mode. The tightening torque obtained in an actual tightening operation varies with the screw or clamping member used. Therefore, you need to try to tighten a few screws for confirmation. *1: The Bolt mode 1, 2, and 3 are to be stopped by ten times of striking for accuracy improvement of tightening torque. *2: Before fixing a thin plate with a self drilling screw, make sure that the thickness of the plate is suitable for the screw diameter. *3: When installing BCL1015: 1.6 N·m {16 kgf·cm} , When installing BCL1030M: 2.5 N·m {25 kgf·cm} *4: With the electronic clutch mode 4

10 the tool may execute reverse rotation briefly when the load increases in order to reduce a risk of screw-head damage. The tool starts up in low rotation speed and tightens softly. The motor automatically stops rotating when the torque reaches to the pre-set value in order to reduce over tightening. The clutch sound such as of the mechanical type will not be generated. You can change the switchable operation modes with the dedicated software by connecting the communication adaptor between the tool and PC. Also, the electronic pulse driver controls the motor rotation consistently to provide the optimum operation for each mode. Because of this, the following cases can occur during operation. 䡬 The behavior at operation start differs by the mode. The self drilling screw mode (1) gradually increases the speed. The electronic clutch mode (regular rotation) rotates the motor at a very slow speed for a certain period after the start and then increases the speed. On the other hand, the electronic clutch mode (reverse rotation) meets the preset rotation speed immediately after the start.

2. Characteristics of Electronic Pulse Driver

Unlike a conventional impact driver, the electronic pulse driver generates the striking force by rotating the motor in regular and reverse directions repeatedly. This mechanism has helped to provide quieter operation. The following characteristics are uncommon to a conventional impact driver, however these are not signs of malfunction. 䡬 The tool tends to be heated by continuous screw tightening. To protect the motor and electronic parts that control the motor operation, this tool is equipped with a temperature protection circuit. Depending on the screw and material being screwed, the striking operation may start early. Since the striking operation causes temperature increase of the motor and electronic parts, the temperature protection circuit may be activated early. Refer to “1. Continuous operation” on page 13 for recovering from the operation stop caused by the temperature protection circuit. No. Operation mode Maximum torque No-lode speed Number

䡬 The tool may not return to the initial status from the striking operation. When the bit or socket is removed from the screw or bolt while the switch is being pulled, the tool may continue the striking operation. To return to the initial status, turn off the switch and then start the next operation. 䡬 Motor rotation speed does not decrease even when the remaining battery power becomes low. Since this tool adopts the constant-speed control, the rotation speed is almost unchanged even when the remaining amount of the battery becomes low. This allows users to operate the tool efficiently until the battery runs down. However, it is difficult to know the remaining battery power from the rotation speed and the tool may stop suddenly during work. 䡬 The tool stops automatically when the electronic clutch is actuated. Quiet screw tightening can be performed without clutch sound generated by the mechanical type. The tool stops automatically when the clutch is actuated. If you continue to use the tool, turn off the switch once and turn it on again. When the tool does not operate even without load, the remaining amount of the battery is low. In this case, recharge the battery immediately.

3. Check the rotational direction

The bit rotates clockwise (viewed from the rear side) by pushing the R-side of the push button. The L-side of the push button is pushed to turn the bit counterclockwise. (See Fig. 7) (The

marks are provided on the body.) CAUTION: The push button can not be switched while the tool is turning. To switch the push button, stop the tool, then set the push button.

䡬 When the trigger switch is depressed, the tool rotates. When the trigger is released, the tool stops. 䡬 The rotational speed can be controlled by varying the amount that the trigger switch is pulled. Speed is low when the trigger switch is pulled slightly and increases as the trigger switch is pulled more.

Pull the trigger switch to light up the light. The light keeps on lighting while the trigger switch is being pulled. The light goes out after releasing the trigger switch. (Fig. 8) CAUTION: Do not expose directly your eyes to the light by looking into the light. If your eyes are continuously exposed to the light, your eyes will be hurt.

6. Tightening and loosening screws

Install the bit that matches the screw, line up the bit in the grooves of the head of the screw, then tighten it. Push the tool just enough to keep the bit fitting the head of the screw. CAUTION: 䡬 Applying the tool for too long tightens the screw too much and can break it. Tightening a screw with the tool at an angle to that screw can damage the head of the screw and the proper force will not be transmitted to the screw. Tighten with this tool lined up straight with the screw. 䡬 Use the bit that fits the cross recess on the screw head. Make sure to use an appropriate bit especially when tightening self drilling screws since using an inappropriate bit can topple the screws.

7. Work amount possible with one charging

The following table shows the approximate amount of work to be carried out by the tool with one charging.

ABOUT BATTERY BCL1030M

: Lights, : Goes out, : Blinks, (2-second period), : Blinks rapidly (0.5-second period)) (1) When recharging (Fig. 10) The indication lamps will blink and indicate the charging amount to the battery. (2) During pause (Fig. 11) The indication lamps will always blink and indicate the remaining capacity of the battery. (3) When using tools (Fig. 12) When turning on the switch of the cordless tool, the indication lamps will light and indicate the remaining capacity of the battery. After three seconds or so from releasing the switch, the indication lamps will start blinking.

2. Protective function

In the following case 1 and case 2, the motor of the cordless tool may stop (indication lamps are turned off) during operation, however, this is not a sign of failure, but is caused by activation of the protective function. (1) The motor stops when the remaining battery capacity becomes low (battery voltage decreased to 6V). In this case, recharge the battery promptly. (2) The motor may stop when the cordless tool is overloaded. In this case, release the switch and eliminate the cause of the overload. After that, you can use the tool again.

3. Indication of trouble (Fig. 13)

When the indication lamps blink rapidly (0.5-second period), it may suggest a battery failure. Please take the battery to the dealer you purchased from.

4. How to determine the battery usage life

When the operating time of the battery becomes significantly short after correctly recharging the battery, it may indicate the end of the battery life and we recommend you to purchase a new battery. NOTE: If left unused for a long period, the battery may become too weak to light up or blink the indication lamps used to show the remaining power. The lamps will light back up or blink once the battery is recharged. Hints on how to make the battery last (1) Recharge the Battery Before it Becomes Completely Discharged. When you feel that the power of the tool weakens, stop using the tool and recharge the battery. If you continue using the tool and discharge the battery, the battery will be damaged and its life will be shortened. (2) Avoid Recharging the Battery at High Temperatures. The battery will be hot immediately after using the tool. If you recharge the battery too soon, the chemical substances inside the battery will deteriorate, and the life of the battery will be shortened. Let the battery take rest and cool down before recharging it.

• If there is anything you do not understand about this product, please feel free to inquire with your nearest authorized Service Agent. OPERATIONAL CAUTIONS

1. Continuous operation

When you perform the striking operation continuously, the temperature protection circuit may be activated early. (Refer to “2. Characteristics of Electronic Pulse Driver” on page 11.) When the activated temperature protection circuit stops the tool, the LED light flashes to indicate that the tool is heated to high temperature. The LED light goes off automatically after approx. 30 seconds. When you perform continuous operation, allow the tool to rest for around 15 minutes at a replacement of rechargeable battery. NOTE: 䡬 When the tool is stopped by the activated temperature protection circuit, allow the tool to cool sufficiently. You can use the tool again when it cools down. 䡬 While the tool is not cooled sufficiently, it cannot start up by turning the switch to on. The LED light flashes while the switch is turned on. Please wait until the tool cools down sufficiently. 䡬 Do not touch the nose part of the tool during continuous operation. It is heated to high temperature.

2. Cautions on use of the speed control switch

This switch has a built-in, electronic circuit which steplessly varies the rotation speed. Consequently, when the switch trigger is pulled only slightly (low speed rotation) and the motor is stopped while continuously driving in screws, the components of the electronic circuit parts may overheat and be damaged.

3. Holding the tool and applying the pressing force

Make sure to hold the tool securely with your both hands, and keep the tool straight to a screw or bolt. There is no need to press the tool excessively against materials. Be careful not to apply excessive pressing/prying force to the tool. It may damage the tool.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

1. Inspecting the tool

Since use of a dull tool will degrade efficiency and cause possible motor malfunction, sharpen or replace the tool as soon as abrasion is noted.

2. Inspecting the mounting screws

Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure that they are properly tightened. Should any of the screws be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure to do so may result in serious hazard.

3. Maintenance of the motor

The motor unit winding is the very “heart” of the power tool. Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.

4. Cleaning of the outside

When the tool is stained, wipe with a soft dry cloth or a cloth moistened with soapy water. Do not use chloric solvents, gasoline or paint thinner, as they melt plastics.

Store the tool in a place in which the temperature is less than 40°C, and out of reach of children. 01Eng_WM10DBL_WE 12/2/11, 13:0713English

NOTE Make sure that the battery is fully charged when stored for a long period (3 months or more). The battery with smaller capacity may not be able to be charged when used, if stored for a long period.
