Top-class tightening speed and torque 130 N . m (1320 kgf . cm, 1150 in-lbs.) Although the Model WH 12DMR is equipped with an anisotropic bonded magnet that is cheaper than that of the Model WH 12DM2, the performance is almost equivalent to the Model WH 12DM2 thanks to the large hammer and the optimized impact timing.

7-3-2. Screw diameter and appropriate tightening torque Generally speaking, the appropriate tightening torque for a screw can be determined by the strength grade of the screw and the material tightened. Tables 1 and 2, and Fig. 5 below list data relative to the strength grade of various screws and the appropriate tightening torque.

8. PRECAUTIONS IN SALES PROMOTION 8-1. Safety Instructions In the interest of promoting the safest and most efficient use of these tools by all our customers, it is very important that at the time of sale the salesperson carefully ensures that the buyer seriously recognizes the importance of the contents of the Handling Instructions, and fully understands the meaning of the precautions listed on the Caution Plate and Name Plate attached to each tool.
Page 23
Ensure that all customers understand that Type EB 1220BL, EB 1226HL or EB 1230HL Storage Batteries should be turned into any Hitachi power tool sales outlet or authorized service center when they are no longer capable of being recharged or repaired. If thrown into a fire, the batteries may explode, or if discarded indiscriminately, leakage of the cadmium compound contained in the battery may cause environmental pollution.

8-2. Tightening Torque Inspection Prior to Operation As described and shown in Para. 7-3-3, the output tightening torque of which the Models WH 12DMR and WR 12DMR are capable in excess of the rated tightening torque of certain bolts and screws. Accordingly, if the tightening time is prolonged for such bolts and screws, it could cause damage to their threads or, in the worst case, cause them to be sheared off.
(2) Effects of low ambient temperatures The tightening torque required may be reduced at low ambient temperatures or under the influence of grease and different torque coefficients (dependent on manufacturing and finishing processes, and specified by bolt manufacturers). (3) Different bolt diameter Differences in bolt diameter will cause variation of the required levels of tightening torque.
9. OTHER PRECAUTIONS (1) Check for cracks or other damage on the socket Cracks or any other faults on the socket are very hazardous. In addition, cracks or other damage to accessories will cause loss of tightening torque efficiency. Advise the customer to inspect accessories often, and ensure there are no abnormalities.
