Most accidents that result from battery charger operation and maintenance are caused by the failure to observe basic safety rules or precautions. An accident can often be avoided by recognizing a potentially hazardous situation before it occurs, and by observing appropriate safety procedures.

Basic safety precautions are outlined in the “SAFETY” section of this Instruction Manual and in the sections which contain the operation and maintenance instructions.

Hazards that must be avoided to prevent bodily injury or machine damage are identified by WARNINGS on the battery charger and in this Instruction Manual.

NEVER use this battery charger in a manner that has not been specifically recommended by HITACHI.

MEANINGS OF SIGNAL WORDS

WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situations which, if ignored, could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situations which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury, or may cause machine damage.

NOTE emphasizes essential information.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

FOR BATTERY CHARGER

WARNING: Death or serious bodily injury could result from improper or unsafe use of battery chargers. To avoid these risks, follow these basic safety instructions:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

1.This manual contains important safety and operating instructions for battery charger Model UC18YG.

2.Before using battery charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on (1) battery charger, (2) battery, and (3) product using battery.

3.To reduce risk of injury, charge HITACHI rechargeable battery types FEB, EB7, EB9, EB12, EB14 and EB18 series. Other type of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.

4.Do not expose battery charger to rain or snow.

5.Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the battery charger manufacturer may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.

6.To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug when disconnecting battery charger.

7.Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.

8.An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock.

If extension cord must be used make sure:

a.That blades of extension cord are the same number, size, and shape as those of plug on battery charger:

b.That extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition; and

*If the input rating of a battery charger is given in watts rather than in amperes, the corresponding ampere rating is to be determined by dividing the wattage rating by the voltage rating–for example:

1,250 watts

= 10 amperes

125 volts

9. Do not operate battery charger with damaged cord or plug-replace them immediately. 10. Do not operate battery charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise

damaged in any way; take it to a qualified serviceman.

11. Do not disassemble battery charger; take it to a qualified serviceman when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

12. To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug charger from receptacle before attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Removing the battery will not reduce this risk.

13. This battery charger might be attached to HITACHI battery operated tools as a standard accessory. In this case, please confirm Instruction Manual of the HITACHI battery operated tools before using the battery charger.

3. Charging

When the battery is connected to the battery charger, charging will commence and the pilot lamp will light on.

NOTE: If the pilot lamp does not light, pull out the plug from the receptacle and check if the battery is properly mounted.

When the battery is fully charged, the pilot lamp will go out.

NOTE: The battery charging time becomes longer when a temperature is low or the voltage of the power source is too low.

When the pilot lamp does not go off even if more than four hour has passed after start of the charging, stop the charging and contact your HITACHI AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER.

4. Disconnect battery charger from the receptacle.

CAUTION:

Do not pull the plug out of the receptacle by pulling on the cord.

Make sure to grasp the plug when removing from receptacle to avoid damaging cord.

5.Remove the battery from the battery charger.

Supporting the battery charger with hand, pull out the battery from the battery charger.

English

Regarding electric discharge in case of new batteries, etc.

As the internal chemical substance of new batteries and batteries that have not been used for an extended period is not activated, the electric discharge might be low when using them the first and second time. This is a temporary phenomenon, and normal time required for recharging will be restored by recharging the batteries 2 – 3 times.

How to make the batteries perform longer.

Recharge the batteries before they become completely exhausted.

When you feel that the power of the tool becomes weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery. If you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric current, the battery may be damaged and its life will become shorter.

Avoid recharging at high temperatures.

A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after use. If such a battery is recharged immediately after use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and the battery life will be shortened. Leave the battery and recharge it after it has cooled for a while.

CAUTION:

When the battery charger has been continuously used, the battery charger will be heated, thus constituting the cause of the failures. Once the charging has been completed, give 15 minutes rest until the next charging.

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.

If the battery charger does not work while the battery is mounted correctly, it is probable that the battery or charger is malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service Center.

BEFORE USE

Check the work area to make sure that it is clear of debris and clutter.

Clear the area of unnecessary personnel. Ensure that lighting and ventilation is adequate.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

CAUTION: Pull out battery before doing any inspection or maintenance.

1.Check the Screws

Loose screws are dangerous. Regularly inspect them and make sure they are tight.

CAUTION: Using this battery charger with loosened screws is extremely dangerous.

2.Check for Dust

Dust may be removed with a soft cloth or a cloth dampened with soapy water.

Do not use bleach, chlorine, gasoline or thinner, for they may damage the plastics.
