4-1-2. Long-life 14.4 V lithium-ion battery Type EBM 1430R

The Type EBM 1430R lithium-ion battery is equipped with the overdischarge protection circuit, overload protection

circuit, and voltage monitoring circuit for each cell to prevent reduction of the battery life due to overdischarge

(overuse) or overcharge (excessive charging). The Type EBM 1430R lithium-ion battery can be charged/

discharged about 1,500 times, while C can be charged/discharged about 500.

Precautions for use of the Type EBM 1430R lithium-ion battery

The Type EBM 1430R lithium-ion battery is equipped with a protective function that automatically stops output to

extend the battery life. The motor may stop automatically in either of the following case or even if the

switch is depressed continuously during operation. This is because the protective function is activated.

The battery is not faulty.

The motor may stop automatically when the remaining battery level is low (when the battery voltage is

decreased to about 8 V). Charge the battery immediately in such case.

The motor may stop if the Model DS 14DAL is overloaded. In such case, release the switch and eliminate the

cause of the overload problem. Then the Model DS 14DAL is operable.

Please instruct the customers on the above precautions.

NOTE The Type EBM 1430R lithium-ion battery that comes with the Model DS 14DAL is not

interchangeable with the Type EBL 1430 lithium-ion battery that has already been on the market.

4-1-3. Hook with a yellow LED light

This hook is convenient for carrying the Model DS 14DAL by hanging on a belt and also for storing. In addition,

the yellow LED light can be conveniently used as a subsidiary light for operation in a dark place. Features of the

hook include the following:

The hook is designed to be drawn out quickly when needed and retracted quickly when not needed with one-

touch simple operation to prevent from interfering with other work. The hook angle is adjustable in 5 steps.

The hook is mountable on either side. The hook can be easily mounted by using a flat-blade screwdriver or a

coin.

Page 7

--- 4 ---

The yellow LED light is usable by turning on the independent light switch when needed. It is designed to light

an object diagonally to avoid creating a shadow of the drill bit or the operator's hand supporting a screw.

Thanks to the internal circuit, the LED light is automatically turned off about 15 minutes later.

4-1-4. Injection-molded case

The injection-molded case has enough storage space to accommodate many accessories. In addition, the case is

more durable than the conventional one thanks to the new hinge brackets.

4-1-5. Improved overload durability (improved cooling efficiency)

The Model DS 14DAL is equipped with the same separate-type motor as a driver drill with a power cord. To

improve the overload durability in continuous operation, the large radial fan increases the volume of air and the

optimally designed cooling air path that is descended from the Model DS 12DM increases the cooling efficiency.

4-1-6. Slip-resistant 22-stage clutch dial

The 22-stage clutch dial ensures fine torque adjustment. The clutch dial is made of elastomer resin (soft resin). It

is soft, slip-resistant and easy to operate for torque setting.

4-1-7. Manual tightening mechanism

When a screw cannot be driven completely with the torque set by the clutch dial, turn off the switch and use the

Model DS 14DAL as a screwdriver by turning the main body manually (maximum manual tightening torque: 22.5

N•m {230 kgf•cm}).

4-1-8. Comfortably shaped handle

The handle is soft, slip-resistant, and comfortably fits in a hand thanks to the elastomer resin. In addition, the

switch section of the handle is thinned for comfortable gripping.

4-1-9. Externally replaceable carbon brushes and separate-type motor

The carbon brushes are replaceable from the outside. The armature is also singly replaceable because the Model

DS 14DAL is equipped with the same separate-type motor as a driver drill with a power cord. Thus the Model

DS 14DAL is easier to maintain.

4-1-10. Others

The switch terminal is isolated to prevent scratching the contact area due to vibration of the battery.

The battery contact (holding) area of the housing is increased to prevent rattling of the battery due to wear.

8. PRECAUTIONS IN SALES PROMOTION

8-1. Safety Instructions

In the interest of promoting the safest and most efficient use of the Model DS 14DAL cordless driver drill by all of

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.

A. Handling instructions

Salespersons must be thoroughly familiar with the contents of the Handling Instructions in order to give pertinent

advice to the customer. In particular, they must have a thorough understanding of the precautions for use of the

cordless tools which are different from those of ordinary electric power tools.

(1) Before use, ensure that the unit is fully charged.

New units are not fully charged. Even if the units were fully charged at the factory, long periods of inactivity,

such as during shipping, cause the storage battery to lose its charge. Customers must be instructed to fully

charge the unit prior to use.

(2) Connect the charger to an AC power outlet only.

Use of any other power source (DC outlet, fuel powered generator, etc.) will cause the charger to overheat and

burn out.

(3) Do not use any voltage increasing equipment (transformer etc.) between the power source and the charger.

If the charger is used with voltage higher than that indicated on the unit, it will not function properly.

(4) Conduct battery charging at an ambient temperature range of 0ûC --- 40ûC.

Special temperature sensitive devices are employed in the charger to permit rapid charging. Ensure that

customers are instructed to use the charger at the indicated ambient temperature range. At temperature

under 0ûC the thermostat will not function properly, and the storage battery may be overcharged. At

temperature over 40ûC, the storage battery cannot be sufficiently charged. The optimum temperature range is

20ûC --- 25ûC.

(5) The battery charger should not be used continuously.

At high ambient temperature, if over three storage batteries are charged in succession, the temperature of the

coils on the transformer will rise and there is a chance that the temperature fuse inserted in the interior of the

transformer will inadvertently melt. After charging one battery, please wait about 15 minutes before charging

the next battery.

(6) Do not insert foreign objects into the air vents on the charger.

The charger case is equipped with air vents to protect the internal electronic components from overheating.

Caution the customer not to allow foreign materials, such as metallic or flammable objects, to be dropped or

inserted into the air vents. This could cause electrical shock, fire, or other serious hazards.

Page 12

--- 9 ---

(7) Do not attempt to disassemble the storage battery or the charger.

Special devices, such as a thermostat, are built into the storage battery and the charger to permit rapid

charging. Incorrect parts replacement and/or wiring will cause malfunctions which could result in fire or other

hazards. Instruct the customer to bring these units to an authorized service center in the event repair or

replacement is necessary.

(8) Disposal of the Type EBM 1430R storage battery

Ensure that all customers understand that Type EBM 1430R storage battery should be returned to the Hitachi

power tool sales outlet or the authorized service center when it is no longer capable of being recharged or

repaired. If thrown into a fire, the battery may explode.

B. Caution plates

(1) The following cautions are listed on the Name Plate attached to Type EBM 1430R storage battery.

Read thoroughly HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS

before use. Do not disassemble nor throw into fire.

8-2. Inherent Drawbacks of Cordless Driver Drills Requiring Particular Attention During Sales Promotion

The cordless driver drill offers many advantages; it can be used in places where no power source is available, the

absence of a cord allows easy use, etc. However, any cordless tool has certain inherent drawbacks.

Salespersons must be thoroughly familiar with these drawbacks in order to properly advise the customer in the

most efficient use of the tool.

A. Suggestions and precautions for the efficient use of the tool

(1) Use the cordless driver drill for comparatively light work.

Because they are battery driven, the output of the motor in cordless driver drills is rather low in comparison

with conventional electric power tools. Accordingly, they are not suitable for continuous drilling of many holes

in succession, or for drilling into particularly hard materials which creates a heavy load. Salespersons should

recommend conventional electric power tools for such heavy work.

(2) Drilling of large diameter holes should be conducted at low speed.

Instruct the customer that drilling of large diameter holes or other work which requires particularly strong

torque should be done at low speed. Because there is less torque at high speed, attempting such work at high

speed will not improve working efficiency.

(3) Do not insert a foreign object into body vent holes.

The body of this tool has vent holes for improving the cooling efficiency. As a fan is built into the motor, a

foreign object inserted through a vent hole may cause a failure. Please instruct customers to never insert a

foreign object into the vent hole.

(4) Avoid "Locking" of the motor.

Locking of the motor will cause an overload current that could result in burning of the motor and/or rapid

deterioration of the battery. Salespersons should advise the customer to immediately release the switch and

stop operation if the motor becomes locked. (A jammed drill bit can be disengaged from the workpiece

material by setting the switch to reverse rotation, or by manually turning the main body of the tool.)

(5) Variation in amount of work possible per charge

Although the nominal chargeable capacity of the storage batteries used with the Model DS 14DAL is 3.0 Ah,

the actual capacity may vary within 10% of that value depending on the ambient temperature during use and

charging, and the number of times the batteries have been recharged. It should be noted that other factors

which may have a bearing on the amount of work possible per charge are the working conditions (ambient

temperature, type and moisture content of the workpiece, sharpness of the drill bit, etc.) and the operational

skill of the user.

(6) Precautions in the use of HSS drill bits

Although the Model DS 14DAL is designed for drilling capacities of 27 mm in wood, and 13 mm in aluminum

and mild steel, this capability is not as efficient as conventional electric power tools.

In particular, when drilling through aluminum material with a 13 mm drill bit, the drill tends to become locked

when the drill bit penetrates through the material. For this reason, the customer should be cautioned to

reduce the thrust on the main body of the drill when drilling completely through the material to avoid locking

the tool. Repeated locking of the drill causes excessive current flow from the batteries which not only

decreases the amount of work possible per charge, but could also result in burning of the motor.

Page 14

--- 11 ---

(7) Securely tighten the sleeve of the keyless chuck.

The keyless chuck may slip during operation if the shape of the drill bit shank is cylindrical depending on the

surface conditions, materials, etc. Please instruct the customers to retighten the keyless chuck more securely

if the keyless chuck slips during operation. The holding force of the keyless chuck is increased as the

tightening force of the keyless chuck is increased. The Model DS 14DAL is equipped with the locking device

to prevent loosening of the keyless chuck. The sleeve makes noise when tightening or loosening. This is

because of the locking device and there is no problem.

(8) Avoid continuous use.

Although the Model DS 14DAL can bear continuous operation under certain conditions, operating conditions

are different depending on material of workpiece and sharpness of the drill bit in use. Please instruct the

customers to avoid continuous use of the Model DS 14DAL and take a pause about 15 minutes after a single

charge operation as a guide.

B. Suggestions and precautions for the efficient use of the charger and storage batteries

If the storage battery Type EBM 1430R is exposed to direct sunlight for an extended period or if the

temperature of the battery is high immediately after it has been used in the tool, the pilot lamp (red) may not

be turned on when the battery is connected to the charger. Chargeable temperature ranges of each type of

battery are specified as follows.

Type EBM 1430R: from 0ûC to 50ûC

In such a case, the customer should be advised to place the battery in a shaded area with a good airflow, and

allow sufficient cooling before recharging. This phenomenon is common to all existing batteries that employ a

thermostat. The cooling time required before charging varies from a few minutes to about 30 minutes,

depending on the load, duration of use, and ambient temperature.

Schematic diagram of the feedback system

9. REFERENCE MATERIALS

9-1. Feedback System

The Model DS 14DAL has the variable speed switch equipped

with the feedback system. This feedback system ensures a

sufficiently large torque even in the variable speed range.

For example, when operating the Model DS 14DAL at a

speed about 80% of the full speed, the maximum torque is

about 95% of that at a full speed (curve "A"). Even when the

Model DS 14DAL is operated at a speed about 30% of the full

speed, the maximum torque does not decrease under about

65% of that at a full speed (curve "B") to ensure a sufficiently

large torque at a low speed.

Besides, the braking function allows the driver unit to stop

rotation immediately when the trigger switch is released,

To rq ue (%)

Rotation speed (%)

which is a convenient feature for continuous screw tightening or drilling works. The step-less variable speed

mechanism controls the speed depending on the depressed amount of the trigger switch within the range from 0

to 350 cycles per minute for the low speed mode and from 0 to 1,200 cycles per minute for the high speed mode.

Thanks to this mechanism, positioning is easily done for screw tightening and drilling works.
