IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read and understand all of the safety precautions, warnings and operating instructions in the Instruction Manual

before operating or maintaining this gardening appliance.

Most accidents that result from gardening appliance operation and maintenance are caused by the failure to

observe basic safety rules or precautions. An accident can often be avoided by recognizing a potentially hazardous

situation before it occurs, and by observing appropriate safety procedures.

Basic safety precautions are outlined in the “SAFETY” section of this Instruction Manual and in the sections which

contain the operation and maintenance instructions.

Hazards that must be avoided to prevent bodily injury or machine damage are identified by WARNINGS on the

gardening appliance and in this Instruction Manual.

NEVER use this gardening appliance in a manner that has not been specifically recommended by HITACHI.

MEANINGS OF SIGNAL WORDS

WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situations which, if ignored, could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situations which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate

injury, or may cause machine damage.

NOTE emphasizes essential information.

SAFETY

GENERAL GARDENING APPLIANCE SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING

When using electric gardening appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the

risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury, including the following:

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 “gardening appliance” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) gardening appliance

or battery-operated (cordless) gardening appliance.

1) Work area safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit.

Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b) Do not operate gardening appliances in

explosive atmospheres, such as in the

presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.

Gardening appliances create sparks which

may ignite the dust or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while

operating a gardening appliance.

Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) Electrical safety

a) Gardening appliance plugs must match the

outlet.

Never modify the plug in any way.

Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed

(grounded) gardening appliances.

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 gardening appliances to rain

or wet conditions.

Water entering a gardening appliance will

increase the risk of electric shock.

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for

carrying, pulling or unplugging the gardening

appliance.

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 gardening appliance

outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for

outdoor use.

Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces

the risk of electric shock.

01Eng_CG36DL(L)_US.p65 4/18/13, 1:50 PM3

English

f) If operating a gardening appliance 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 gardening

appliance.

Do not use a gardening appliance while you

are tired or under the influence of drugs,

alcohol or medication.

A moment of inattention while operating

gardening appliances 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 gardening appliance.

Carrying gardening appliances with your

finger on the switch or energising gardening

appliances that have the switch on invites

accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before

turning the gardening appliance on.

A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating

part of the gardening appliance may result in

personal injury.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and

balance at all times.

This enables better control of the gardening

appliance 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) Gardening appliance use and care

a) Do not force the gardening appliance. Use

the correct gardening appliance for your

application.

The correct gardening appliance will do the

job better and safer at the rate for which it

was designed.

b) Do not use the gardening appliance if the

switch does not turn it on and off.

Any gardening appliance 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 gardening

appliance before making any adjustments,

changing accessories, or storing gardening

appliances.

Such preventive safety measures reduce the

risk of starting the gardening appliance

accidentally.

d) Store idle gardening appliances out of the

reach of children and do not allow persons

unfamiliar with the gardening appliance or

these instructions to operate the gardening

appliance.

Gardening appliances are dangerous in the

hands of untrained users.

e) Maintain gardening appliances. Check for

misalignment or binding of moving parts,

breakage of parts and any other condition

that may affect the gardening appliance’s

operation.

If damaged, have the gardening appliance

repaired before use.

Many accidents are caused by poorly

maintained gardening appliances.

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 gardening appliance, 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 gardening appliance for operations

different from those intended could result in

a hazardous situation.

5) Battery gardening appliance 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 gardening appliances only with

specifically designated battery packs.

Use of any other battery packs may create a

risk of injury and fire.

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.

How to make the batteries perform longer.



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.



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

●

When the battery charger has been continuously

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.

●

If the battery is recharged when it is warm due to

battery use or exposure to sunlight, the pilot lamp

may light in green.

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

let the battery cool before charging.

●

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.

●

When the pilot lamp flickers rapidly in red (at 0.2–

second intervals), check for and take out any

foreign objects in the charger’s battery installation

hole. If there are no foreign objects, it is probable

that the battery or charger is malfunctioning. Take
