(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 the wood screw is partly driven into the
wood, squeeze the trigger more strongly to obtain the
optimum driving force.
CAUTION
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, requiring much power to drive the screw
into it, the thread of the wood screw may sometimes
be damaged.
8. How to use the drill bit (taper shank) and the taper
shank adapter
(1) Mount the taper shank adapter to the rotary hammer
(
Fig. 19
).
(2) Mount the drill bit (taper shank) to the taper shank
adapter (
Fig. 19
).
(3) Turn the switch ON, and drill a hole in prescribed
depth.
(4) To remove the drill bit (taper shank), insert the cotter
into the slot of the taper shank adapter and strike the
head of the cotter with a hammer supporting on a
rests (
Fig. 20
).
LUBRICATION
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 form
loosened screw.
Further use of the rotary hammer with lock off grease will
cause the machine to seize up reduce the service life.
CAUTION
A special grease is used with this machine, therefore,
the normal performance 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.
MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
1. Inspecting the drill bits
Since use of a dull tool will cause motor
malfunctioning and degraded efficiency, replace the
drill bit with new ones or resharpen them without
delay when 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
For your continued safety and electrical shock
protection, carbon brush inspection and replacement
on this tool should ONLY be performed by a Hitachi
Authorized Service Center.
