Prior To Operation - Hitachi WH 8DC2 Instruction Manual

CAUTION:
G When the battery charger has been continuously used, the battery charger will
be heated, thus constituting the cause of failures. Once the charging has been
completed, give 15 minutes rest until the next charging.
G 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.
G If the pilot lamp blinks quickly (at 0.2-second intervals), check for and take out
any foreign objects in the charger's battery installation hole.
If there are no foreign objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is
malfunctioning. Bring them to HITACHI AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER.
