GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING

Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool.

Failure to follow all instructions listed below 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.

1) Work area safety

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.

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 influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.

- Do not block the air vent. Otherwise the interior will overheat, reducing the charger's performance.

- If the cooling fan is not operating, contact a HiKOKI Authorized Service Center for repairs.

1. Disconnect the charger's power cord from the receptacle.

2. Hold the charger firmly and pull out the battery. NOTE

Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger after use, and then keep it.

Regarding electric discharge in case of new batteries, etc.

As the internal chemical substance of new batteries and batteries that have not been used for an extended period is not activated, the electric discharge might be low when using them the first and second time. This is a temporary phenomenon, and normal time required for recharging will be restored by recharging the batteries 2–3 times.

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.

WARNING

The bar handle must be firmly engaged to prevent uncontrolled loosening.

NOTE

If the plunger rod does not go inside, rotate the bar handle 1/4 to 1/2 of a rotation so that the protrusion of the plunger rod fits into the slot while pushing.

In the following situations, remove the old grease from inside the tool before use.

(1) When using for the first time

(2) When using a different type of grease than was used the previous time

After filling with new grease, move the tool body for a while until the new grease pushes the old grease out of the coupler.

CAUTION

Do not connect the grease nipple to the coupler until all of the old grease has come out. If the greases mix together, the performance may decrease.

NOTE

A small amount of grease remains inside the tool from when it was tested before shipment.

*5 Filling the grease using a screw-in cartridge

WARNING

In order to avoid damage, grease gaskets (adapter and gear case) before screwing in the adapter (Fig. 13, no. 35 and 36)

Instructions for using the HIKOKI grease gun with one of the adapters available as accessory for screw-in cartridges "Cartridge 500 G" or "LUBE-SHUTTLE®";

\*6 Air purge

When filling or replacing grease, some air gets inside the tool body.

If grease is not discharged because of air inside the tool, set the shift knob to "2", and pull the trigger switch to purge the air. (Fig. 14-a)

If a large amount of air is inside, while pulling the trigger, press the vent valve to purge the air. (Fig. 14-b)

\*7 Grease discharging

CAUTION

When attaching or removing the coupler from the grease nipple, using excessive force may damage the coupler and grease nipple.

Before connecting the coupler and grease nipple, clean off any dirt. Face the coupler toward the grease nipple and press it in straight from directly above.

Pull the trigger switch to inject grease.

After injecting, slightly tilt the coupler to release the internal pressure before removing it.

Wipe off any grease adhered to the coupler and grease nipple to clean them.

LED LIGHT WARNING SIGNALS

This product features functions that are designed to protect the tool itself as well as the battery. If any of the safeguard functions are triggered during operation, the LED light will blink as described in Table 4.

When any of the safeguard functions are triggered, immediately remove your finger from the switch and follow the instructions described under corrective action.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

WARNING

Be sure to turn off the switch and remove the battery before maintenance and inspection.

1. 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 could result in serious hazard.

2. 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.

3. Inspection of terminals (tool and battery)

Check to make sure that swarf and dust have not collected on the terminals.

English

On occasion check prior, during and after operation.

4. Cleaning on the outside

When the power 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, for they melt plastics.

5. Storage

Store the power tool and battery in a place in which the temperature is less than 40^ C and out of reach of children.

NOTE

Storing lithium-ion batteries.

Make sure the lithium-ion batteries have been fully charged before storing them.

Prolonged storage (3 months or more) of batteries with a low charge may result in performance deterioration, significantly reducing battery usage time or rendering the batteries incapable of holding a charge.

However, significantly reduced battery usage time may be recovered by repeatedly charging and using the batteries two to five times.

If the battery usage time is extremely short despite repeated charging and use, consider the batteries dead and purchase new batteries.

CAUTION

In the operation and maintenance of power tools, the safety regulations and standards prescribed in each country must be observed.
