CHARGING
Before using the power tool, charge the battery as follows.
1. Insert the battery in the charger.
Position the battery so that the nameplate faces
toward the HITACHI label of the charger and press
in the battery unit it comes into contact with the
bottom plate. (See Fig. 1 and Fig. 2)
2. Connect the charger power cord to the AC outlet.
Connecting the power cord will turn on the charger
(the pilot lamp lights up).
CAUTION
If the pilot lamp does not light up, pull out the
power cord from the AC outlet and check the
battery mounting condition.
3. The pilot lamp goes off when the battery is fully
charged.
Regarding recharging time
Table 1 shows the recharging time required according
to the type of battery.
Table 1 Type of battery and recharging time
(at temperature 20°C)
Type of battery Recharging time
EB12 Approx. 60 minutes
EB12G Approx. 90 minutes
EB12B Approx. 105 minutes
NOTE: The recharging time may vary according to the
ambient temperature and the power supply voltage
An example of the relationship between the input
power supply voltage and the charging time when
battery model EB12 is charged is shown in Fig. 3.
The charging time decreases if the ambient
temperature and input power supply voltage are
high and increases when they are low.

CAUTION
If the battery is heated due to direct sunlight,
etc., just after operation, the charger pilot lamp
may not light. At that time cool the battery first,
then start charging.
4. Disconnect the charger power cord from the AC
outlet.
5. Hold the charger tight and pull out the battery.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

1. 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.
2. Cleaning of the charger
When the charger is stained, wipe with a soft dry
cloth or a cloth moistened with soapy water. Do not
use chloric solvents, gasoline or paint thinner, for
they melt plastics.
3. Store idle charger
When not in use, the charger should be stored in
dry, high or locked-up place — out of reach of
children.
NOTE
Due to HITACHI's continuing program of research and
development, the specifications herein are subject to
change without prior notice.
IMPORTANT
Correct connecting of the plug
The wires of the mains lead are coloured in accordance
with the following code:
Blue: –Neutral
Brown: –Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this tool
may not correspond with the coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug proceed as follows:
The wire coloured blue must be connected to the terminal
marked with the letter N or coloured black.
The wire coloured brown must be connected to the
terminal marked with the letter L or coloured red. Neither
core must be connected to the earth terminal.
NOTE
This requirement is provided according to BRITISH
STANDARD 2769: 1984.
Therefore, the letter code and colour code may not be
applicable to other markets except United Kingdom.
