Maintenance And Inspection - Hitachi DV 14DCL2 Handling Instructions Manual

CAUTION
○ The selection examples shown in Table 5 should be
considered as general standard. As diff erent types of
tightening screws and diff erent materials to be tightened
are used in actual works proper adjustments are naturally
necessary.
○ When using the impact driver drill with a machine screw
at HIGH (high speed), a screw may damage or a bit may
loose due to the tightning torque is too strong. Use the
impact driver drill at LOW (low speed) when using a
machine screw.
NOTE
The use of the battery BCL1415, BCL1815 and EBM1830
in a cold condition (below 0 degree Centigrade) can
sometimes result in the weakened tightening torque and
reduced amount of work. This, however, is a temporary
phenomenon, and returns to normal when the battery
warms up.
7. Mounting and dismounting of the bit
(1) After inserting a driver bit, etc. into the keyless drill chuck,
fi rmly grasp the ring and tighten the sleeve by turning it
toward the right (in the clockwise direction as viewed
from the front) (See Fig. 8).
○ If the sleeve becomes loose during operation, tighten it
further. The tightening force becomes stronger when the
sleeve is tightened additionally.
(2) Dismounting the bit
Firmly grasp the ring and loosen the sleeve by turning
it toward the left (in the counter-clockwise direction as
viewed from the front) (See Fig. 9).
CAUTION
When it is no longer possible to loosen the sleeve, use a
vise or similar instrument to secure the bit. Set the clutch
mode between 1 and 11 and then turn the sleeve to the
loose side (left side) while operating the clutch. It should
be easy now to loosen the sleeve.
8. Confi rm that the battery is mounted correctly
9. Check the rotational direction
The bit rotates clockwise (viewed from the rear side) by
pushing the R-side of the selector button.
The L-side of the selector button is pushed to turn the
bit counterclockwise (See Fig. 9) (The
are provided on the body).
CAUTION
Always use this unit with clockwise rotation, when using it
as an impact drill.
10. Switch operation
○ When the trigger switch is depressed, the tool rotates.
When the trigger is released, the tool stops.
○ The rotational speed of the drill can be controlled by
varying the amount that the trigger switch is pulled.
Speed is low when the trigger switch is pulled slightly and
increases as the trigger switch is pulled more.
NOTE
A buzzing noise is produced when the motor is about to
rotate; This is only a noise, not a machine failure.
11. For drilling into brick
Excessive pressing force never increases drilling speed.
It will not only damage the drill tip or reduce working
effi ciency, but could also shorten the service life of
drill bit. Operate the impact driver drill within 10-15 kg
pressing force while drilling into brick.
12. Using the bit holder
CAUTION
○ Stow the bit in the specifi ed location on the tool. If the tool
is used with the bit stowed improperly, the bit may fall and
cause bodily injury.
○ Do not stow bits that are of a diff erent length, gauge or
dimension than the plus driver bit (65 mm long) included
in the STANDARD ACCESSORIES.
The bit may fall and cause bodily injury.
(1) Removing the bit
Securely hold the main unit and pull out the bit by holding
the tip with your thumb (Fig. 10).
(2) Installing the Bit
Install the bit with steps opposite of when removing.
Insert the bit so that the right and left sides are equal, as
shown in Fig. 11

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

1. Inspecting the tool
Since use of as dull tool will degrade effi ciency and cause
possible motor malfunction, sharpen or replace the tool
as soon as abrasion is noted.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. Cleaning on the outside
When the impact driver drill 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 impact driver drill in a place in which the
temperature is less than 40°C and out of reach of
children.
NOTE
Make sure that the battery is fully charged when stored
for a long period (3 months or more). The battery with
smaller capacity may not be able to be charged when
and marks
used, if stored for a long period.
6. Service parts list
CAUTION
Repair, modifi cation 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.
MODIFICATIONS
Hitachi Power Tools are constantly being improved
and modifi ed to incorporate the latest technological
advancements.
Accordingly, some parts may be changed without prior
notice.
Important notice on the batteries for the Hitachi
cordless power tools
Please always use one of our designated genuine
batteries. We cannot guarantee the safety and
performance of our cordless power tool when used with
batteries other than these designated by us, or when
the battery is disassembled and modifi ed (such as
disassembly and replacement of cells or other internal
parts).
