Prior To Operation - Hitachi CV 14DBL Handling Instructions Manual

English
○ When the pilot 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 charger 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.
○ If the pilot lamp does not blink in red (every second) even though
the charger cord is connected to the power, it indicates that the
protection circuit of the charger may be activated.
Remove the cord or plug from the power and then connect it again
after 30 seconds or so. If this does not cause the pilot lamp to
blink in red (every second), please take the charger to the Hitachi
Authorized Service Center.

PRIOR TO OPERATION

1. Preparing and checking the work environment
Make sure that the work site meets all the conditions laid forth in the
precautions.
2. Checking the battery
Make sure that the battery is installed fi rmly. If it is at all loose it could
come off and cause an accident.
3. Power switch
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position.
If the battery is installed while the power switch is in the ON position, the
power tool will start operating immediately, which could cause a serious
accident.
4. Checking the Accessory
○ Check to see if the application tool is a genuine component
recommended by the manufacturer and that there are no cracks or other
damage.
○ Check to see if the application tool is properly installed as instructed.
5. Changing application tools (Fig. 4)
CAUTION
○ Be sure to switch power OFF and disconnect the battery from the
body when changing application tools.
○ Never touch the application tool immediately after use. The metal
is hot and can easily burn your skin.
○ The lever is attached to a strong spring. Be very careful not to get
your fi ngers caught when pushing the lever down.
