IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

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

before operating or maintaining this power tool.

Most accidents that result from power tool 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

power tool and in this Instruction Manual.

NEVER use this power tool in a manner that has not been specifically recommended by HITACHI.

MEANINGS OF SIGNAL WORDS

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

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

injury, or may cause machine damage.

NOTE emphasizes essential information.

SAFETY

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, 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.

01Eng_DS12DVF3_US 4/9/13, 13:504

English

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) Battery tool 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 power tools 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.

6) 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.

–WARNING–

To reduce the risk of injury, user must read

instruction manual.

3. Charging

䡬

When the battery is connected to the battery

charger, charging will commence and the pilot

lamp will light on.

NOTE:

If the pilot lamp dose not light, pull out the plug

from the receptacle and check if the battery is

properly mounted.

䡬

In approx. 30 – 50 min., 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.

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.

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, wait 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 not light.

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

let the battery cool before charging.

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.

BEFORE USE

Check the work area to make sure that it is clear of debris

and clutter.

Clear the area of unnecessary personnel. Ensure that

lighting and ventilation is adequate.
