IMPORTANT SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS FOR BATTERY

CHARGER

WARNING

Death or serious bodily injury could result from

improper or unsafe use of battery chargers.

To avoid these risks, follow these basic safety

instructions:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

1. This manual contains important safety and

operating instructions for battery charger Model

UC7SD.

2. Before using battery charger, read all instructions

and cautionary markings on (1) battery charger,

(2) battery, and (3) product using battery.

3. To reduce risk of injury, charge HITACHI

rechargeable battery type EB714S. Other type of

batteries may burst causing personal injury and

damage.

4. Do not expose battery charger to rain or snow.

5. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold

by the battery charger manufacturer may result

in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.

6. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord,

pull by plug when disconnecting battery charger.

7. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be

stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected

to damage or stress.

8. An extension cord should not be used unless

absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension

cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock.

If extension cord must be used make sure:

a. That blades of extension cord are the same number,

size, and shape as those of plug on battery charger;

b. That extension cord is properly wired and in good

electrical condition; and

c. That wire size is large enough for AC ampere rating

of battery charger as specified in Table 1.

* If the input rating of a battery charger is given in

watts rather than in amperes, the corresponding

ampere rating is to be determined by dividing the

wattage rating by the voltage rating–for example:

1,250 watts

125 volts

10 amperes

9. Do not operate battery charger with damaged cord

or plug-replace them immediately.

10. Do not operate battery charger if it has received a

sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged

in any way; take it to a qualified serviceman.

11. Do not disassemble battery charger; take it to a

qualified serviceman when service or repair is

required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk

of electric shock or fire.

12. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger

from receptacle before attempting any

maintenance or cleaning. Removing the battery will

not reduce this risk.

13. This battery charger might be attached to HITACHI

battery operated tools as a standard accessory. In

this case, please confirm Instruction Manual of the

HITACHI battery operated tools before using the

battery charger.

䡬 When the plug of battery charger has been inserted

into the receptacle, charging will commence and the

pilot lamp will light on.

NOTE: If the pilot lamp does not light, pull out the plug

from the receptacle and check if the battery is

properly mounted.

䡬 In approx. 60 min. at 70°F (20°C), when the battery is

fully charged, the pilot lamp will go out.

NOTE: The battery charging time becomes longer when

a temperature is low or the voltage of the power

source is too low.

When the pilot lamp does not go off even if more

than four hour has passed after start of the

charging, stop the charging and contact your

HITACHI AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER.

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION

METHOD OF BATTERY

䡬 How to install the battery

Align the battery with the groove in tool handle and

slip it into place.

Always insert it all the way until it locks in place with a

little click. If not, it may accidentally fall out of the tool,

causing injury to you or someone around you.

䡬 How to remove the battery

Withdraw battery from the tool handle while pressing

the latch on the side of the battery.

4. Disconnect battery charger from the receptacle.

CAUTION

Do not pull the plug out of the receptacle by

pulling on the cord.

Make sure to grasp the plug when removing from

receptacle to avoid damaging cord.

5. Remove the battery from the battery charger.

Supporting the battery charger with hand, pull out the

battery from the battery charger.

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.

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.

䡬 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

䢇 When the battery charger has been continuosly

used, the battery charger will be heated, thus

constituting the cause of the failures. Once the

charging has been completed, give 15 minutes

rest until the next charging.

䢇 If the battery is recharged when it is warm due to

battery use or exposure to sunlight, the pilot lamp

may not light.

The battery will not be recharged. In such a case,

let the battery cool before charging.

䢇 If the battery charger does not work while the

battery is mounted correctly, it is probable that

the battery or charger is malfunctioning. Take it to

your authorized Service Center.

BEFORE OPERATION

Read section titled “SAFETY” (pages 4 – 9).

Make sure of the followings before operation.

WORKING ENVIRONMENT

WARNING

䢇 No flammable gas, liquid

or other flammable

objects at worksite.

䢇 Use outside or well–

ventilated areas.

Check the metering valve:

Press the metering valve stem on fuel cell two or three

times against a stationary object and release.

If gas is not dispersed, fuel cell is empty. Replace it.

Observe Safety Regulations.

The fuel cell is now ready to insert into the Nailer.

PREPARING THE BATTERY

Read section titled “SAFETY, IMPORTANT SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS FOR BATTERY CHARGER” (page 8).

You must charge the battery before use.

The charging method of battery is shown in page 12 - 14.

TESTING THE NAILER

DANGER

䢇 Operators and others in

work area MUST wear

safety glapsses with side

shields which conforms

to ANSI Z87.1

specifications.

WARNING

䢇 Never use Nailer unless push lever is operating

properly.

The machine employs a preventive mechanism for

unloaded operation.

The machine enters a state where the push lever cannot be

pushed up. This takes place when the magazine is not

loaded with nails or when the remaining number of nails

becomes less than 8 or 9.

CAUTION

䢇 Use caution not to throw the push lever tip onto

wood.

Before actually beginning the nailing work, test the Nailer

by using the checklist below. Conduct the tests in the

following order.

If abnormal operation occurs, stop using the Nailer and

contact a Hitachi authorized service center immediately.

(1) REMOVE ALL NAILS, FUEL CELL AND BATTERY FROM

NAILER.

䡺 ALL SCREWS MUST BE TIGHTENED.

PREPARING THE FUEL CELL

Read section titled “SAFTY, IMPORTANT SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUEL CELL (page 7).

DANGER

䢇 The fuel cell is

flammable.

䢇 Keep away from ignition

sources.

䢇 Do not spray to a naked

flame or any

incandescent material.

䢇 Do not smoke when

handling fuel cell.

䢇 Keep stem of fuel cell

away from face or skin.

Expanding gases cause

low temperatures. Do

not contact with gases.

䢇 Do not inhale.

䢇 Keep out of reach of

children.

CAUTION

䢇 If the gas leaks from the metering valve or the gas

cartridge after attached the metering valve,

replace with the new metering valve.

䢇 Do not attempt to reuse the metering valve.

Replace with the new metering valve.

To attach the metering valve to a fuel cell:

(1) Separate the metering valve and the

cap from the gas cartridge.

(2) Press forward (stem side) and

downward on the front side of the

metering valve.

(3) Press downward on the rear of the

metering valve until it seals.
