7. Inspecting and maintaining the lower guard
Always make sure that the lower guard moves smoothly.
In the event of any malfunction, immediately repair the
lower guard.
For cleaning and maintenance, use an air gun or other
tool to blow clean the space between the lower guard
and gear cover as well as the rotation part of the lower
guard with dry air (Fig. 17).
Doing so is eff ective for the emission of chips or other
particles.
Accumulation of chips or other particles around the lower
guard may result in malfunction or damage.
WARNING
To prevent dust inhalation or eye irritation, wear
protective safety goggles and a dust mask when
using an air gun or other tool to clean the lower guard,
ventilation holes or other parts of the product.
Ensure smooth movement

Information concerning airborne noise and vibration
The measured values were determined according to
EN62841 and declared in accordance with ISO 4871.
Measured A-weighted sound power level: 109 dB (A)
Measured A-weighted sound pressure level: 96 dB (A)
Uncertainty K: 3 dB (A).
Wear hearing protection.
Vibration total values (triax vector sum) determined
according to EN62841.
Cutting chipboard:
Vibration emission value
Uncertainty K = 1.5 m/s
The declared vibration total value has been measured in
accordance with a standard test method and may be used
for comparing one tool with another.
It may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING
○ The vibration emission during actual use of the power
tool can diff er from the declared total value depending in
the ways in which the tool is used.
○ Identify safety measures to protect the operator that
are based on an estimation of exposure in the actual
conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the
operating cycle such as the times when the tool is
switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the
trigger time).
NOTE
Due to HITACHI's continuing program of research and
development, the specifi cations herein are subject to
