GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fi re 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 fl ammable 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 infl uence of drugs, alcohol or medication. 000BookD10VH2NA.indb3000BookD10VH2NA.indb3 2016/10/0714:49:552016/10/0714:49:554 English 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 fi nger 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 aff ect 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 diff erent from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

23. Defi nitions for symbols used on this tool

OPERATION To ensure safer operation of this power tool, HITACHI has adopted a double insulation design. “Double insulation” means that two physically separated insulation systems have been used to insulate the electrically conductive materials connected to the power supply from the outer frame handled by the operator. Therefore, either the symbol “ ” or the words “Double insulation” appear on the power tool or on the nameplate. Although this system has no external grounding, you must still follow the normal electrical safety precautions given in this Instruction Manual, including not using the power tool in wet environments. To keep the double insulation system eff ective, follow these precautions:

Only HITACHI AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER should disassemble or assemble this power tool, and only genuine HITACHI replacement parts should be installed.

Clean the exterior of the power tool only with a soft cloth moistened with soapy water, and dry thoroughly. Never use solvents, gasoline or thinners on plastic components; otherwise the plastic may dissolve. 000BookD10VH2NA.indb5000BookD10VH2NA.indb5 2016/10/0714:49:552016/10/0714:49:556 English

9. Installing the side handle (Optional accessory) (Fig. 5)

A Side handle can be installed on either side of the tool for right or left handed use. To install the side handle, thread it into the M10 hole on the desired side of the gear cover and tighten it securely. Loosen Side handle Tighten Fig. 5

10. Attaching the hook. (Optional accessory)

For hook (side-attaching) (Fig. 6) Fix the hook fi rmly on the desired side of the gear cover using M10 bolt which is supplied with hook. Hook M10 Bolt Fig. 6 CAUTION When the power tool is used with a hook fi xed to it, pay attention to the following points:

Before hanging the main unit from the waist belt, make sure that the drill has come to a complete stop. While it is suspended from the waist belt, the power plug must be disconnected from the power source.

Do not walk about with the power tool hanging from the waist belot.

In the case of operation in a high place, it is dangerous to drop the tool accidentally. If the hook is deformed or hung from the wrong position, there is danger that the hook will slip off and the tool will fall. Be careful to avoid danger.

In making a through hole, the power tool sometimes shakes violently when the workpiece is pierced, from example. Be careful you are not hurt by the hook even if such situation happens.

CAUTION To prevent accidents, make sure to turn the switch off and disconnect the plug from the receptacle when the drill bits and other various parts are installed or removed. The power switch should also be turned off during a work break and after work.

When the trigger switch is depressed, the tool rotates. When the trigger is released, the tool stops.

The rotational speed of the drill 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.

The desired rotation speed can be pre-selected with the speed control dial. Turn the speed control dial clockwise for higher speed and counterclockwise for lower speed. (Fig. 7) Speed control dial High speed Low speed Stopper Fig. 7

Pulling the trigger and pushing the stopper, it keeps the switched-on condition which is convenient for continuous running. When switching off , the stopper can be disconnected by pulling the trigger again.

When drilling, start the drill slowly, and gradually increasing speed as you drill.

Always apply pressure in a straight line with the bit. Use enough pressure to keep drilling, but do not push hard enough to stall the motor or defl ect the bit.

To minimize stalling or breaking through the material, reduce pressure on drill and ease the bit through the last part of the hole.

If the drill stalls, release the trigger immediately, remove the bit from the work and start again. Do not click the trigger on and off in an attempt to start a stalled drill. This can damage the drill. 000BookD10VH2NA.indb8000BookD10VH2NA.indb8 2016/10/0714:49:562016/10/0714:49:569 English

Be sure to switch power OFF and disconnect the plug from the receptacle during maintenance and inspection.

The larger the drill bit diameter, the larger the reactive force on your arm. Be careful not to lose control of the drill because of this reactive force. To maintain fi rm control, establish a good foothold, use side handle, hold the drill tightly with both hand, and ensure that the drill is vertical to the material being drilled.

1. Inspecting the drill bits

Since use of a dull tool will cause motor malfunctioning and degraded effi ciency, replace the drill bit with a new one or resharpening without delay when abrasion is noted.

2. Inspecting the screws

Regularly inspect all screws and ensure that they are fully tightened. Should any of the screws be loosened, retighten them immediately.

Using this drill with loosened screws is extremely dangerous.

3. Keeping after use

When not in use, the Power tool should be kept in a dry place out of the reach of children.

4. Inspecting the carbon brushes

For your continued safety and electrical shock protection, carbon brush inspection and replacement on this tool should ONLY be performed by a HITACHI AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER.

5. 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.

6. Service and repairs

All quality power tools will eventually require servicing or replacement of parts because of wear from normal use. To assure that only authorized replacement parts will be used, all service and repairs must be performed by a HITACHI AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER, ONLY.
