HOW TO USE THE DEMOLITION HAMMER
(Fig. 6)
1. After placing the tip of the tool on concrete surface,
switch ON.
The switch can be turned ON if the trigger is pulled
and OFF when it is released.
If the stopper is pressed while the trigger for the
switch is pulled, even if your finger is released from
the trigger, the switch remains ON - convenient for
continuous operation.
To turn the switch OFF, pull the trigger again, and
then the stopper comes off.
2. By utilizing the empty weight of the machine and
by firmly holding the demolition hammer by both
hands, you can effectively control the subsequent
recoil motion.
Proceed at a moderate work-rate, the use of too
much pushing force will impair efficiency.
GREASE REPLACEMENT
This machine is of fully oil sealed construction to protect
against dust incursion and to prevent lubricant leakage.
This machine can be used without grease replenishment
for an extended period of time. However, perform the
grease replacement to extend the service life. Replace
the grease as described below.
1. Grease Replacement Period
You should look at the grease when you change
the carbon brush. (See item 4 in the section
MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION.)
Ask for grease replacement at the nearest authorized
Hitachi Service Center.
In the case that you are forced to change the grease
by yourself, please follow the following points.
2. How to replace grease
CAUTION:
Before replacing the grease, turn the power off and
pull out the plug from the receptacle.
(1) Disassemble the crank cover and thoroughly wipe
off the old grease inside. (
Fig. 7
)
(2) Supply 60g (the standard volume to cover the
connecting rod) of Hitachi Electric Hammer Grease
A in the crank case.
(3) After replacing the grease, reassemble the crank
cover securely. At this time, do not damage or lose
the oil seal.
NOTE:
The Hitachi Electric Hammer Grease A is of the low
viscosity type. When the grease is consumed,
purchase from the authorized Hitachi Service Center.
MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
CAUTION
Be sure to switch power OFF and disconnect the plug
from the receptacle to avoid serious trouble.
1. Inspecting the tool
Since use of a dull tool will degrade efficiency and
cause possible motor malfunction, sharpen or
replace the tool as soon as abrasion is noted.
2. Inspecting the mounting screws:
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure
that they are properly tightened. Should any of the
screws be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure
to do so could result in serious hazard.
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. Inspecting the carbon brushes (Fig. 8)
The Motor employs carbon brushes which are
consumable parts. When they become worn to or
near the “wear limit”, it could result in motor trouble.
When an auto-stop carbon brush is equipped, the
motor will stop automatically. At that time, replace
both carbon brushes with new ones which have the
same carbon brush Number shown in the figure.
In addition, always keep carbon brushes clean and
ensure that they slide freely within the brush holders.
5. Replacing carbon brushes:
Loosen the set screw and remove the tail cover.
Remove the brush caps and carbon brushes. After
replacing the carbon brushes, do not forget to tighten
the brush caps properly and install the tail cover.
