GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

  1. Work area safety
    a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
    Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
    b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of fl ammable liquids, gases or dust.
    Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
    c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
    Distractions can cause you to lose control.

  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.
    Unmodifi ed 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 infl uence 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 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.
    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.

  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 the battery pack 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. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may aff ect the power toolʼs 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.

  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 fi re 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
    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.

  6. Service
    a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.
    This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

PRECAUTION

Keep children and infirm persons away.
When not in use, tools should be stored out of reach of children and infirm persons.

CORDLESS ROTARY HAMMER SAFETY WARNINGS

The recharging time may vary according to the ambient temperature and power source voltage.

Disconnect the charger’s power cord from the receptacle.

Hold the charger firmly and pull out the battery.

NOTE

Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger after use, and then keep it.

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 fi rst 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.

  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, fi rst let the battery cool, then start charging.
  • When the charge indicator lamp fl ickers (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 confi rm 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.

SELECT OPERATION MODE

Pressing the changeover switch allows the selection of rotation speed and the auto stop function.

  •  Rotation speed (Low mode/Normal mode) (Fig. 15) Select either Low mode or Normal mode and operate the tool in the selected speed.
  •  Auto stop mode (on/off ) (Fig. 16)
    This product is equipped with an auto stop function to support continuous drilling work. The function features a memory mode for storing the work time for drilling from switch ON to switch OFF, and an auto stop mode that automatically stops the motor from the second drilling onward should the work exceed the stored work time while the switch is ON.

AUTO STOP FUNCTION

In selection mode, pressing the button for longer than two seconds will move to memory mode. (Fig. 16)
(At the same time the auto stop lamp will blink.)
Conduct drilling when the auto stop lamp is fl ashing. The time between switching ON and switching OFF is stored by the tool.
(At the same time, the auto stop lamp will light up.) Conduct drilling when the auto stop lamp is fl ashing. Continuous drilling is possible as the memory storage time will be recorded by the tool until the auto stop function’s auto stop mode is cancelled.
The auto stop function is cancelled by pressing the changeover switch once again for over two seconds.
(At the same time, the auto stop lamp will switch off .)

CAUTION

  • Switch ON the tool once you place the tip of the tool on the work material.
  • The rotation speed and the level at which the switch is pulled during drilling is not stored to memory.
  • Fully carry out drilling in one go during auto stop mode.
  • The motor will stop even if you switch OFF within the memory storage time.
  • When you switch OFF within the memory storage time, the count will be reset. If you rework a task in which a hole has been partially drilled, the memory storage time will be fully recounted.
  • The auto stop function will remain active until canceled.

REACTIVE FORCE CONTROL

This product is equipped with a Reactive Force Control (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 RFC indicator 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. 22)
Because the RFC feature may not activate or its performance may be insuffi cient depending on the working environment and conditions, be careful not to suddenly overburden the
tool bit while operating.

  • 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.

ABOUT THE PROTECTION FUNCTION

This tool has a built-in protection circuit for preventing damage to the unit in the event of an abnormality. Depending on the following, the display lamp and the indicator lamp will fl ash, and the unit will cease to operate. Verify the problem indicated by the fl ashing and take the necessary steps to correct the problem.
When pressing the changeover switch, do so when the switch is not being pulled.

  NOTE

Despite taking steps to correct a problem, the display lamp may continue to blink. Should this be the case, the unit may require repair. If so, please contact the outlet from which this product was purchased for repairs.

    Furthermore, such use may cause a malfunction or contact failure between the battery and the terminals.

  7. Storage
    Store the power tool in a place in which the temperature is less than 40°C and out of reach of children.
    Storing lithium-ion batteries.
    Make sure the lithium-ion batteries have been fully charged before storing them.
    Prolonged storage (3 months or more) of batteries with a low charge may result in performance deterioration, significantly reducing battery usage time or rendering the batteries incapable of holding a charge.
    However, significantly reduced battery usage time may be recovered by repeatedly charging and using the batteries two to five times.
    If the battery usage time is extremely short despite repeated charging and use, consider the batteries dead and purchase new batteries.

CAUTION

In the operation and maintenance of power tools, the safety regulations and standards prescribed in each country must be observed.
