PRECAUTIONS FOR CORDLESS ROTARY
HAMMER
1. Always charge the battery at a temperature of 0
– 40°C.
A temperature of less than 0°C will result in over
charging which is dangerous. The battery cannot
be charged at a temperature higher than 40°C.
The most suitable temperature for charging is that
of 20 – 25°C.
2. Do not use the charger continuously.
When one charging is completed, leave the charger
for about 15 minutes before the next charging of
battery.
3. Do not allow foreign matter to enter the hole for
connecting the rechargeable battery.
4. Never disassemble the rechargeable battery and
charger.
5. Never short-circuit the rechargeable battery. Short-
chircuiting the battery will cause a great electric
current and overheat. It results in burn or damage
to the battery.
6. Do not dispose of the battery in fire.
If the battery is burnt, it may explode.
7. When using this unit continuously, the unit may
overheat, leading to damage in the motor and
switch. Please leave it without using it for
approximately 15 minutes.
8. Do not insert object into the air ventilation slots
of the charger.
Inserting metal objects or inflammables into the
charger air ventilation slots will result in electrical
shock hazard or damaged charger.
9. Using an exhausted battery will damage the charger.
10. When drilling in wall, floor or ceiling, check for
buried electric power cord, etc.
11. Bring the battery to the shop from which it was
purchased as soon as the post-charging battery
life becomes too short for practical use. Do not
dispose of the exhausted battery.
12. Wear ear protections
Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
13. Do not touch the bit during or immediately after
operation. The bit becomes very hot during
operation and could cause serious burns.
14. Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool.
Loss of control can cause personal injury.
15. Always hold the body handle and side handle of
the power tool firmly. Otherwise the counterforce
produced may result in inaccurate and even
dangerous operation.
16. Wear a dust mask
Do not inhale the harmful dusts generated in
drilling or chiseling operation. The dust can
endanger the health of yourself and bystanders.
CAUTION ON LITHIUM-ION BATTERY
To extend the lifetime, the lithium-ion battery equips
with the protection function to stop the output.
In the cases of 1 and 2 described below, when using
this product, even if you are pulling the switch, the
motor may stop. This is not the trouble but the result
of protection function.
1. When the battery power remaining runs out (The
battery voltage drops to about 14V (DH25DL,
DH25DAL) / about 20V (DH36DL, DH36DAL)), the
motor stops.
In such case, charge it up immediately.
2. If the tool is overloaded, the motor may stop. In this
case, release the switch of tool and eliminate causes
of overloading. After that, you can use it again.
Furthermore, please heed the following warning and
caution.
WARNING
In order to prevent any battery leakage, heat generation,
smoke emission, explosion and ignition beforehand,
please be sure to heed the following precautions.
1. Do not pierce battery with a sharp object such
as a nail, strike with a hammer, step on, throw
or subject the battery to severe physical shock.
2. Do not use an apparently damaged or deformed
battery.
3. Do not use the battery in reverse polarity.
4. Do not connect directly to an electrical outlets or
car cigarette lighter sockets.
5. Do not use the battery for a purpose other than
those specified.
6. If the battery charging fails to complete even
when a specified recharging time has elapsed,
immediately stop further recharging.
7. Do not put or subject the battery to high
temperatures or high pressure such as into a
microwave oven, dryer, or high pressure container.
8. Keep away from fire immediately when leakage
or foul odor are detected.
9. Do not use in a location where strong static
electricity generates.
10. If there is battery leakage, foul odor, heat
generated, discolored or deformed, or in any way
appears abnormal during use, recharging or
storage, immediately remove it from the equipment
or battery charger, and stop use.
CAUTION
1. If liquid leaking from the battery gets into your
eyes, do not rub your eyes and wash them well
with fresh clean water such as tap water and
contact a doctor immediately.
If left untreated, the liquid may cause eye-problems.
2. If liquid leaks onto your skin or clothes, wash well
with clean water such as tap water immediately.
There is a possibility that this can cause skin irritation.
3. If you find rust, foul odor, overheating, discolor,
deformation, and/or other irregularities when using
the battery for the first time, do not use and return
it to your supplier or vendor.
