37
English
2) Electrical safety a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)
power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such
as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c) Do not expose power
tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock. d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock. e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the
risk of electric shock. f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an
RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
3) Personal safety a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired
or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c)
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position
before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. d) Remove any adjusting
key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. f) Dress
properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can
be caught in moving parts.
38
English
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to
become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can
cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
4) Power tool use and care a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was designed. b) Do not use the power tool
if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. c) Disconnect
the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable,
from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally. d) Store idle power tools out of the
reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or
these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users. e) Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools. f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier
to control. g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation. h) Keep handles and
grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles
and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool
in unexpected situations.
5) Battery tool use and care a) Recharge only with the charger specified by
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may
create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack. b) Use power tools
only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
39
English
c) 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 burns or a fire.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid
contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts
eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may
cause irritation or burns.
e) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or
modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire,
explosion or risk of injury.
f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
g) Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool
outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging
improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of fire.

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.
CAUTION
If the battery is charged while it is heated because it has been left for a
long time in a location subject to direct sunlight or because the battery has
just been used, the charge indicator lamp of the charger lights for 0.3
seconds, does not light for 0.3 seconds (off for 0.3 seconds). In such a case,
first let the battery cool, then start charging.
When the charge indicator lamp flickers (at 0.2-second intervals), check for
and take out any foreign objects in the charger’s battery connector. 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 UC18YSL3 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.
HOW TO RECHARGE USB DEVICE

HOW TO USE
CAUTION
To extend the lifetime, the lithium-ion battery equips with the protection
function to stop the output. Therefore, if the tool is overloaded, the motor
may stop. However, this is not the trouble but the result of protection
function. In this case, release the switch of tool and eliminate the causes of
overloading.
1. How to drill holes (Fig. 24) (1) Pull the switch trigger after applying
the drill bit tip
to the drilling position. (2) It is unnecessary to forcibly press the Rotary
Hammer main body. It is sufficient to slightly press the rotary hammer to an
extent that clips are freely discharged.
CAUTION
Fig. 24
Although this machine is equipped with a slip clutch, if the drill bit becomes bound
in concrete or other material, the resultant stoppage of the drill bit could cause the
machine body to turn in reaction. Ensure that the main handle and side handle are
gripped firmly during operation.
2. How to chisel or demolish (Fig. 25) By applying the tool tip to the chiseling or demolishing position, operate the rotary hammer by utilizing its own weight. Forcible pressing or thrusting is unnecessary.
3. Install the stopper (Fig. 26) (1) Loosen the wing bolt, and insert the
stopper
into the mounting hole on the side handle. (2) Adjust the stopper position
according to the
depth of the hole and tighten the wing bolt securely.

2. How to bore (Fig. 31)
(1) Install the battery.
(2) A spring is installed in the center pin. Push it lightly
to the wall or the floor straight. Connect all over the
surface of the core bit tip and start operating.
(3) When boring about 5 mm in depth the position of the
hole will establish. Bore after that removing the center
pin and the guide plate from core bit. (4) Application of excessive force will not only expedite the
Fig. 31
work, but will deteriorate the tip edge of the drill bit, resulting in reduced service life of the
rotary hammer.
WARNING
When removing the center pin and the guide plate, turn OFF the switch and
disconnect the battery.
3. Dismounting (Fig. 32)
Remove the core bit shank from the rotary hammer and
strike the head of the core bit shank strongly two or three
times with a manual hammer holding the core bit, then the thread becomes loose and the core bit can be removed.

REACTIVE FORCE CONTROL
This product is equipped with a Reactive Force Control
Arms are twisted
(RFC) feature that reduces jerking of the tool body.
If the tool bit is suddenly overburdened, any jerking of the
tool body is reduced by activation of the slip clutch or by
stopping of the motor by the sensor built into the tool body.
If the motor is stopped because of overburdening detection
by the controller, the display lamp will blink while the switch
is pulled. In addition, the lamp will continue blinking for
approximately three seconds after the switch is released.
The motor will remain stopped while the lamp is blinking. (Fig. 33)
Fig. 33
Because the RFC feature may not activate or its performance may be insufficient depending on the
working environment and conditions, be careful not to suddenly overburden the tool bit and hold
power tool firmly while operating.
60
English
Possible causes of sudden overburdening Tool bit biting into material Impact
against nails, metal or other hard objects Tasks involving prying or any
excess application of pressure, etc.
Also, other causes include any combination of the aforementioned. When the
reactive force control (RFC) is triggered
When the RFC is triggered and the motor stops, turn off the tool’s switch and
remove the cause of the overburdening before continuing operation.
OPERATIONAL CAUTIONS
Resting the unit after continuous work (1) The power tool is equipped with a
temperature protection circuit to protect the motor.
Continuous work may cause the temperature of the unit to rise, activating the
temperature protection circuit and automatically stopping operation. If this
happens, allow the power tool to cool before resuming use. (2) After use for
continuous works, rest the unit for 15 minutes or so when replacing the
battery. The temperature of the motor, switch, etc., will rise if the work is
started again immediately after battery replacement, eventually resulting in
burnout.
MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
WARNING
Be sure to turned off the switch and remove the battery before maintenance and
inspection.
1. Inspecting the tool bits Since use of a dull tool will cause motor
malfunctioning and degraded efficiency, replace the tool bit with a new one or
resharpening without delay when abrasion is noted.
2. Inspecting the screws Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure
that they are properly tightened. Should any of the screws be loose, retighten
them immediately.
WARNING
Using this Rotary Hammer 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.
