GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

HiKOKI DH38MS - GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS - 1

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.

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.

English

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.

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 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 different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5) Service

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.

CAUTION

Keep children and infi rm persons away.

When not in use, tools should be stored out of reach of children and infirm persons.

ROTARY HAMMER SAFETY WARNINGS

  1. Wear ear protectors

Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.

  1. Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool.

Loss of control can cause personal injury.

  1. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.

  2. Do not touch the bit during or immediately after operation. The bit becomes very hot during operation and could cause serious burns.

English

  1. Before starting to break, chip or drill into a wall, floor or ceiling, thoroughly confirm that such items as electric cables or conduits are not buried inside.
  2. Always hold the body handle and side handle of the power tool firmly. Otherwise the counterforce produced may result in inaccurate and even dangerous operation.
  3. Do not touch the metal parts of machine when operating. Earthing metal parts of running tool affects the performance of radio noise suppression of machine.
  4. Wear a dust mask

Do not inhale the harmful dusts generated in drilling or chiseling operation. The dust can endanger the health of yourself and bystanders.

(2) Attaching chuck adapter to drill chuck (Fig. 12)

(a) Attach the chuck adapter to the drill chuck.
(b) The SDS max shank of the chuck adapter is equivalent to the drill bit. Therefore, follow the same procedure as [How to install tool] in page 23 for attaching and detaching.

(3) Drilling

(a) Even if you apply more-than-required pressure to the machine body, drilling can never be performed as quickly as you expect. Applying more force or pressure to the machine body than what is needed, on the contrary, damages the drill tip, resulting in the declined working efficiency and shortened life of this machine.
(b) A drill can snap sometimes when drilling is almost finished. It is important to relax your thrusting pressure when drilling is nearing the end.

HOW TO HANDLE A CORE BIT

When a core bit is used, large diameter holes and blind holes can be drilled. In this case, use optional accessories for core bits (such as a center pin and core bit shank) for more efficient operation.

  1. Mounting

CAUTION

Prior to mounting a core bit, always disconnect the plug from the power supply receptacle.

(1) Mount the core bit on the core bit shank. (Fig. 13)

Before that, feed oil to the screw portion of core bit shank for easy dismounting.

(2) Mount the core bit shank on the main body in the same manner as in mounting the drill bit and the bull point. (Fig. 14)
(3) Insert the center pin into the guide plate until it reaches the extremity.
(4) Fit in the guide plate by aligning its concaved portion with the core bit tip. When the position of the concave is shifted by turning the guide plate right or left, the guide plate never slips off even when the drill is used in a downward direction. (Fig. 15)

  1. Drilling holes

(1) Insert the plug into a receptacle.
(2) A spring is built in the center pin. By straightly and gently pressing it to the wall or floor surface, the entire surface of the core bit tip attains contact to start the hole drilling job. (Fig. 16)
(3) When the hole depth reaches approximately 5 mm, the hole position can be determined. Then remove the center pin and guide plate from the core bit and continue the hole drilling job.

CAUTION

When removing the center pin and guide plate, always disconnect the plug from the receptacle.

  1. How to dismount the core bit

By holding the rotary hammer (with the core bit inserted) in an upward position, drive the rotary hammer to repeat impact operation two or three times, whereby the screw is loosened and the rotary hammer becomes ready for disassembly. (Fig. 17)
○ Remove the core bit shank from the rotary hammer, hold the core bit with one hand, and strongly strike the head of the SDS max shank portion of the core bit shank with a manual hammer two or three times, whereby the round head screw is loosened and the rotary hammer is ready for disassembly. (Fig. 18)

HOW TO REPLACE GREASE

This machine is of full air-tight construction to protect against dust and to prevent lubricant leakage. Therefore, the machine can be used without lubrication for long periods. Replace the grease as described below.

  1. Grease replacement period

After purchase, replace grease after every 6 months of usage. Ask for grease replacement at the nearest Hitachi authorized Service center. Proceed for replacement of grease.

  1. Grease replenishment

CAUTION

Before replenishing the grease, turn the power off and pull out the power plug.

(1) Remove the crank cover and wipe off the grease inside. (Fig. 19)
(2) Supply 60g of Hitachi Electric Hammer Grease A (Standard accessory, contained in tube) to the crank case.
(3) After replenishing the grease, install the crank cover securely.

NOTE

The Hitachi Electric Hammer Grease A is of the low viscosity type. If necessary purchase from an Hitachi authorized Service center.

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.

  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.

  1. 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.

  1. Inspecting the carbon brushes (Fig. 20)

The Motor employs carbon brushes which are consumable parts. When they become worn to or near the “wear limit”, it could result in motor trouble. When an auto-stop carbon brush is equipped, the motor will stop automatically. At that time, replace both carbon brushes with new ones which have the same carbon brush Numbers shown in the figure. In addition, always keep carbon brushes clean and ensure that they slide freely w

5. Replacing carbon brushes

Loosen the two set screws and remove the tail cover. Remove the brush caps and carbon brushes. After replacing the carbon brushes, tighten the brush caps securely and install the tail cover with securely tightening two set screws.

6. Service parts list

CAUTION

Repair, modification and inspection of Hitachi Power Tools must be carried out by a Hitachi Authorized Service Center.

This Parts List will be helpful if presented with the tool to the Hitachi Authorized Service Center when requesting repair or other maintenance.

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

● Power supply cable

In case you need replacing of power supply cable, use the heavy polychloroprene sheathed fl exible cable 245IEC66 (YCW) or equivalent.
