1. PRODUCT NAME

Hitachi 18 V Cordless Driver Drill, Model DS 18DVF3

Hitachi 14.4 V Cordless Driver Drill, Model DS 14DVF3

2. MARKETING OBJECTIVE

The new Models DS 18DVF3 and DS 14DVF3 are upgraded versions of the current DSxxDVF2 series cordless

driver drills highly reputed as reasonable professional-use cordless driver drills. These new models are added to

reinforce the excellent cost/performance cordless driver drill series including the Models DS 9DVF3 and

DS 12DVF3 released in advance.

The Model DS 14DVF3 (battery voltage 14.4 V) is higher-performance and more convenient thanks to the

powerful motor increased in size and the angle-adjustable one-touch hook as well as the same operability as the

current Model DS 14DVF2. In addition, the Model DS 14DVF3 is balanced best with the optimally designed

position of center of gravity for various applications.

The Model DS 18DVF3 (battery voltage 18 V) is most powerful in this series. The Model DS 18DVF3 is suitable

for heavy-load works that cannot be accomplished by the Model DS 14DVF3. Although the overall length of the

Model DS 18DVF3 is 10 mm longer than the Model DS 14DVF3 owing to adoption of the new 13-mm chuck, the

overall height is equivalent to the Model DS 14DVF3 thanks to the adoption of the flat battery.

Both the Models DS 18DVF3 and DS 14DVF3 are provided with convenient standard accessories such as spare

batteries, bit set and torchlight.

3. APPLICATIONS

Tightening and loosening wood screw, self-tapping screw and machine screw

Drilling into wood materials, plastic, mild steel and aluminum

4-1. Selling Point Descriptions

4-1-1. Improved overload durability (improved cooling efficiency)

The Model DS 14DVF3 ensures durability in continuous operation thanks to the powerful motor increased in size

and the improved air ducts. The Model DS 18DVF3 is equipped with the larger motor than the Model

DS 14DVF3. (See Fig. 1.)

Fig. 1 Curves of the motor temperature rise

4-1-2. 22-position torque adjustable clutch (Max. clutch torque 5.9 N•m)

The torque can be set finely thanks to the adoption of the 22 clutch positions to improve the operability (see

Table 1).

* There may be difference in operation depending on the screw shapes and workpieces. Perform a test before actual driving.

--- 3 ---

4-1-3. Soft grip handle

The handle is widely covered with soft-touch elastomer (rubber-like soft resin). It is slip-resistant and securely fits

in the palm of a hand even if the gripping hand sweats.

4-1-4. One-touch hook

(1) The hook can be quickly slid out whenever necessary and slid in when not necessary.

(2) The hook is mountable on either side using a flat-blade screwdriver or a coin.

(3) The angle of the hook is adjustable in five steps.

4-1-5. Flat battery (DS 18DVF3)

The battery is flat enough to stand the Model DS 18DVF3 upright stability. The conventional Hitachi 18 V

batteries are also usable.
