GENERAL SAFETY RULES – FOR ALL BATTERY OPERATED TOOLS
WARNING: Read and understand all instructions.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Work Area
(1) Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite
accidents.
(2) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust of fumes.
(3) Keep bystanders children, and visitors away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2. Electrical Safety
(1) A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a separate battery pack must be
recharged only with the specified charger for the battery.
A charger that may be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of fire when
used with another batttery.
(2) Use battery operated tool only with specifically designed battery pack.
Use of any other batteries may create a risk of fire.
3. Personal Safety
(1) Stary alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
(2) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
(3) Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging in. Carrying tools with
your finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
(4) Remove adjusting keys or switches before turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that
is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
(5) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and
balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
(6) Use safety equipment. Always wear protective grasses. Dust mask, nonskid safety
shoes, hard hat, or ear plugs must be used for appropriate conditions.
4
English
4. Tool Use and Care
(1) Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable
platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to
lose of control.
(2) Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do
the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
(3) Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
(4) Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the locked or off position
before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
(5) Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are
dangerous in the hand of untrained users.
(6) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like: paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a
connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause sparks, burns, or a fire.
(7) Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
tools, with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
(8) Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other
condition that may affect the tools operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced
before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
(9) Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model.
Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may become hazardous when used on
another tool.

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.
CAUTION:
● When the battery charger has been continuosly used, the battery charger will 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 rechraged when it is warm due to battery use or exposure to sunlight,
the pilot lamp may light in green.
The battery will not be recharged. In such a case, let the battery cool before charging.
● When the pilot lamp flickers rapidly in red (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. Take it to your
authorized Service Center.
● Since the built-in micro computer takes about 3 seconds to confirm that the battery
being charged with UC 24YF is taken out, wait for a minimum of 3 seconds before
reinserting it to continue charging. If the battery is reinserted within 3 seconds, the
battery may not be properly charged.
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.
14
English
How to make the batteries perform longer.
(1) 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.
(2) 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.
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.

(2) Pull the trigger switch after applying the drill bit
tip to the drilling position (Fig. 13)
(3) Pushing the rotary hammer forcibly is not neces-
sary at all. Pushing slightly so that drill dust comes
out gradually is just sufficient.
CAUTION:
䡬 When the drill bit touches an iron reinforcing rod,
the bit will stop immediately and the rotary ham-
mer will react to revolve. Therefore please grip the
side handle and handle tightly as shown in Fig.

3. Rotation only
The rotary hammer can be set to rotation only
mode by rotating the change lever fully clockwise
to mark.
To drill a wood or metal material using the sepa-
rately sold drill chuck and chuck adaptor, proceed
as follows. Installing drill chuck and chuck adaptor
(Fig. 14):
(1) Attach the drill chuck to the chuck adaptor.
(2) The part of the SDS-plus shank is the same as the
drill bit. Therefore, refer to the item of “Mounting
the drill bit” for attaching it.
CAUTION:
䡬 Application of force more than necessary will not
only reducing drilling efficiency at all, but will de-
teriorate the tip edge of the drill bit and reduce
the service life of the rotary hammer in addition.
䡬 Drill bit may snap off while withdrawing the ro-
tary hammer from the drilled hole. For withdraw-
ing, it is important to use a pushing motion.

䡬 Do not attempt to drill anchor holes or holes in concrete with the main unit in the
rotation only function.
䡬 Do not attempt to use the rotary hammer in the rotation and striking function with the
drill chuck and chuck adaptor attached. This would seriously shorten the service life of
every components of the machine.
4. When driving machine screws (Fig. 15)
First, insert the bit into the socket in the end of
chuck adaptor (D).
Next, mount chuck adaptor (D) on the main unit
using procedures described in 3 (1), (2), (3), put
the tip of the bit in the slots in the head of the screw,
grasp the main unit and tighten the screw.

CAUTION:
䡬 Exercise care not to excessively prolong driving
time, otherwise, the screws may be damaged by
excessive force.
䡬 Apply the rotary hammer perpendicularly to the
screw head when driving a screw; otherwise, the
screw head or bit will be damaged, or driving force
will not be fully transferred to the screw.
䡬 Do not attempt to use the rotary hammer in the
rotation and striking function with chuck adaptor
(D) and bit attached.

5. When driving wood screws (Fig. 15)
(1) Selecting a suitable driver bit
Employ phillips screws, if possible, since the driver bit easily slips off the heads of
slotted-head screws.
(2) Driving in wood screws
䡬 Prior to driving in wood screws, make pilot holes suitable for them in the wooden board.
Apply the bit to the screw head grooves and gently drive the screws into the holes.
䡬 After rotating the rotary hammer at low speed for a while until a wood screw in partly
driven into the wood, squeeze the trigger more strongly to obtain the optimum driving
force.
CAUTION:
䡬 Exercise care in preparing a pilot hole suitable for the wood screw taking the hardness
of the wood into consideration. Should the hole be excessively small or shallow, re-
quiring much power to drive the screw into it, the thread of the wood screw may
sometimes be damaged.

6. Using depth gauge (Fig. 16)
(1) Loosen the knob on the side handle, and insert the
depth gauge into the mounting hole on the side
handle.
(2) Adjust the depth gauge position according to the
depth of the hole and tighten the knob bolt securely.
7. How to use the drill bit (taper shank) and the
taper shank adaptor.
(1) Mount the taper shank adaptor to the rotary ham-
mer. (Fig. 17)
(2) Mount the drill bit (taper shank) to the taper shank
adaptor. (Fig. 17)
(3) Turn the switch ON, and drill a hole in prescribed
depth.
(4) To remove the drill bit (taper shank), insert the cot-
ter into the slot of the taper shank adaptor and
strike the head of the cotter with a hammer supporting on the rests. (Fig. 18)

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
CAUTION: Pull out battery before doing any inspection or maintenance.
1. Inspecting the drill bits
Since use of a dull tool will cause motor malfunctioning and degraded efficiency, replace the drill bit with a new one or resharpening without delay when abrasion is noted.
2. Check the Mounting Screws
Loose mounting screws are dangerous. Regularly inspect them and make sure they are
tight.
CAUTION: Using this power tool with loosen, screws is extremely dangerous.
3. Maintenance of the motor
The motor unit winding is the very “heart” of the power tool.
Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not become damaged and/or wet with oil
or water.
4. How to replace grease
Low viscosity grease is applied to this rotary hammer so that it can be used for a long
period without replacing the grease. Please contact the nearest service center for grease
replacement when any grease is leaking from loosened screw. Further use of the rotary
hammer despite the grease shortage causes seizure to reduce the service life.
CAUTION: A specific grease is used with this machine, therefore, the normal perfor-
mance of the machine may be badly affected by use of other grease. Please
be sure to let one of our service agents undertake replacement of the grease.
5. 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.
6. Disposal of the exhausted battery
WARNING: Do not dispose of the exhausted battery. The battery must explode if it
is incinerated. The product that you have purchased contains a rechargeable battery. The battery is recyclable. At the end of it’s useful
life, under various state and local laws, it may be illegal to dispose of this
battery into the municipal waste stream. Check with your local solid
waste officials for details in your area for recycling options or proper
disposal.
7. Storage
Storing in a place below 104°F (40°C) and out of the reach of children.
8. Service and repairs
All quality power tools will eventually require servicing or replacement of parts because
of wear from normal use. To assure that only authorized replacement parts will be used,
all service and repairs must be performed by a HITACHI AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER,
