CAUTION
○ If the battery is charged while it is heated because
it has been left for a long time in a location subject to
direct sunlight or because the battery has just been
used, the charge indicator lamp of the charger lights for
0.3 seconds, does not light for 0.3 seconds (off for 0.3
seconds). In such a case, fi rst let the battery cool, then
start charging.
○ When the charge indicator lamp fl ickers (at 0.2-second
intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in
the charger's battery connector. If there are no foreign
objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is
malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service
Center.
○ Since the built-in micro computer takes about
3 seconds to confi rm that the battery being charged with
UC18YSL3 is taken out, wait for a minimum of 3 seconds
before reinserting it to continue charging. If the battery
is reinserted within 3 seconds, the battery may not be
properly charged.
PRIOR TO OPERATION
○ Setting up and checking the work environment
Check if the work environment is suitable by following
the precautions.
USING THE CONTROLS
(FUNCTIONS)
● The mode switch functions (Fig. 4)
NOTE
The turbo mode turns off automatically and
returns to the previous mode after 10 seconds
in order to protect the electronic circuitry.
Press the turbo mode switch again to switch
back to the turbo mode.
● Work Capacity on a Full Charge
The following is a rough estimate of the amount of
work provided by the blower when on a full charge.
(The amount of work varies somewhat due to ambient
temperature and characteristics of the battery)

outlet. (Fig. 9-b)
Before and after use, check and make sure the nose
grill, which covers the air intake, is not damaged. If it
is damaged, contact your sales outlet or the Hitachi
Authorized Service Center to have it repaired.
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.
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.
Check to make sure that swarf and dust have not
collected on the terminals.
On occasion check prior, during and after operation.
Remove any swarf or dust which may have collected on
the terminals.
Failure to do so may result in malfunction.
When the coldless blower 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.
If the nose grill is blocked with debris, the blower will
work less effi ciently.
Clean it gently when necessary with a soft brush.
Store the coldless blower in a place in which the
temperature is less than 40°C and out of reach of
children.
Storing lithium-ion batteries.
Make sure the lithium-ion batteries have been fully
charged before storing them.
Prolonged storage (3 months or more) of batteries with
a low charge may result in performance deterioration,
signifi cantly reducing battery usage time or rendering
the batteries incapable of holding a charge.
However, signifi cantly reduced battery usage time may
be recovered by repeatedly charging and using the
batteries two to fi ve times.
If the battery usage time is extremely short despite
repeated charging and use, consider the batteries dead
and purchase new batteries.
