Lubrication - HIKOKI DH 14DSL Mode D'emploi

English
(2) Tightening wood screws
Prior to tightening wood screws, make pilot holes
suitable for them in the wooden board. Apply the
bit to the screw head grooves and gently drive the
screws in the holes.
CAUTION
Exercise care in preparing a pilot hole suitable for
the wood screw taking the hardness of the wood
into consideration. Should the hole be excessively
small or shallow, requiring much power to drive
the screw into it, the thread of the wood screw may
sometimes be damaged.
5. Using depth gauge (Fig. 14)
(1) Loosen the knob on the side handle, and insert the
depth gauge into the mounting hole on the side
handle.
(2) Adjust the depth gauge position according to the
depth of the hole and tighten the knob bolt securely.
6. How to use the drill bit (taper shank) and the taper
shank adapter
(1) Mount the taper shank adapter to the rotary hammer.
(Fig. 15)
(2) Mount the drill bit (taper shank) to the taper shank
adapter. (Fig. 15)
(3) Turn the switch ON, and drill a hole to prescribed
depth.
(4) To remove the drill bit (taper shank), insert the
cotter into the slot of the taper shank adapter and
strike the head of the cotter with a hammer
supporting on the rest. (Fig. 16)
7. Switching between the "SAVE" and the "POWER"
modes
The hammering force of the hammer can be
increased or decreased to conform with intended
usage, by operating the shift knob as per Fig. 17.
Adjust the force to match the usage intended.
(1) "SAVE" mode ... decreased hammering force
This can prevent thin drill bits which are less than
4.3 mm in diameter, from being bent or broken.
(2) "POWER" mode ... increased hammering force
This can be used to speedily and efficiently drill
holes when the drill bits which are being used are
greater than 4 mm in diameter.
This can be used to drill holes into wood or metal.
CAUTION
Do not drill holes in wood with the "SAVE" mode.
There is a likelihood that the motor will burn out
because it can easily lock up due to the low power.
8. About Remaining Battery Indicator
When pressing the remaining battery indicator
switch, the remaining battery indicator lamp lights
and the battery remaining power can be checked.
(Fig. 18) When releasing your finger from the
remaining battery indicator switch, the remaining
battery indicator lamp goes off. The Table 5 shows
the state of remaining battery indicator lamp and
the battery remaining power.

Table 5
State of lamp Battery Remaining Power
The battery remaining power
is enough.
The battery remaining power
is a half.
The battery remaining power
is nearly empty.
Re-charge the battery soonest
possible.
As the remaining battery indicator shows somewhat
differently depending on ambient temperature and
battery characteristics, read it as a reference.
NOTE:
Do not give a strong shock to the switch panel or
break it.It may lead to a trouble.
To save the battery power consumption, the
remaining battery indicator lamp lights while
pressing the remaining battery indicator switch.
9. How to use the LED light
Every time you press the light switch on the
switch panel, the LED light lights or goes off.
(Fig. 19)
To prevent the battery power consumption, turn
off the LED light frequently.
CAUTION
Do not expose directly your eye to the light by
looking into the light.
If your eye is continuously exposed to the light,
your eye will be hurt.
NOTE:
To prevent the battery power consumption caused
by forgetting to turn off the LED light, the light goes
off automatically in about 15 minutes.

LUBRICATION

Low viscosity grease is applied to this rotary hammer so
that it can be used for a long period without replacing the
grease. Please contact the nearest service center for
grease replacement when any grease is leaking form
loosened screw.
Further use of the rotary hammer despite the grease
shortage causes damage to reduce the service life.
CAUTION
A specific grease (FG-6A) is used with this machine,
therefore, the normal performance of the machine may
be badly affected by use of different grease. Please be
sure to let one of our service centers to undertake
replacement of the grease.
