Hitachi CM 5 SB Handling Instructions Manual page 10

English
For thorough dressing, approximately 5 meters of
slightly accelerated cutting at a depth of 10mm in
a relative soft material which produces granular
cutting particles (such as a cement block or brick)
will restore the cutting effectiveness of the diamond
layer and will extend the service life of the diamond
wheel.
The diamond material is susceptible to high
temperatures and will begin to deteriorate at
approximately 600°C. Higher temperatures will cause
decomposition of the diamond material. Accordingly,
it is important to perform "dressing" as soon as
clogging or sparking occurs.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Inspecting the carbon brushes (Fig. 5)
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 within
the brush holders.
6. Replacing carbon brushes (Fig. 6)
<Disassembly>
(1) Loosen the D4 tapping screw retaining the tail cover
and remove the tail cover.
(2) Use the auxiliary hexagonal wrench or small
screwdriver to pull up the edge of the spring that
is holding down the carbon brush. Remove the edge
of the spring toward the outside of the brush holder.
(3) Remove the end of the pig-tail on the carbon brush
from the terminal section of brush holder and then
remove the carbon brush form the brush holder.
<Assembly>
(1) Insert the end of the pig-tail of the carbon brush
in the terminal section of brush holder.
(2) Insert the carbon brush in the brush holder.
(3) Use the auxiliary hexagonal wrench or small
screwdriver to return the edge of the spring to the
head of the carbon brush.
(4) Mount the tail cover and tighten the D4 tapping
screw.

IMPORTANT
Correct connection of the plug
The wires of the mains lead are coloured in accordance
with the following code:
Blue: –Neutral
Brown: –Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this
tool may not correspond with the coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug proceed as follows:
The wire coloured blue must be connected to the
terminal marked with the letter N or coloured black.
The wire coloured brown must be connected to the
terminal marked with the letter L or coloured red.
Neither core must be connected to the earth terminal.
NOTE
This requirement is provided according to BRITISH
STANDARD 2769: 1984.
Therefore, the letter code and colour code may not be
applicable to other markets except the United Kingdom.
