NOTE
The recharging time may vary according to temperature
and power source voltage.
CAUTION
When the battery charger has been continuously used,
the battery charger will be heated, thus constituting
the cause of the failures. Once the charging has been
completed, give 15 minutes rest until the next charging.
4. Disconnect the charger's power cord from the
receptacle.
5. Hold the charger fi rmly and pull out the battery.
NOTE
Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger after use,
and then keep it.
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
pilot lamp of the charger lights for 1 second, does not
light for 0.5 seconds (off for 0.5 seconds). In such a case,
fi rst let the battery cool, then start charging.
○ When the pilot 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 charger 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.
○ If the pilot lamp does not blink in red (every second)
even though the charger cord is connected to the power,
it indicates that the protection circuit of the charger may
be activated.
Remove the cord or plug from the power and then
connect it again after 30 seconds or so. If this does
not cause the pilot lamp to blink in red (every second),
please take the charger to the HiKOKI Authorized
Service Center.

*1 Installing / Removing the side handle
Be sure to install the side handle and use both hands
while operating.
Failure to do so may result in injury.
*2 Switch operation
○ Using a soft cloth, wipe off any foreign matter that
has adhered to the lens of the LED light, being
careful not to scratch the lens.
Scratches on the LED light may reduce the
brightness of the light.
○ When cleaning the lens of the LED light, do not wipe
with gasoline, paint thinner, etc.
Doing so will damage the lens.
*3 Remaining battery indicator
○ To reduce battery consumption, the remaining
battery indicator lamp only lights up while the
remaining battery indicator switch is being pressed.
○ Unless the power is switched on after installing the
battery to the unit, the remaining battery indicator
lamp will not light up when the remaining battery
indicator switch is pressed.
*4 Adjusting operating speed
This unit is equipped with an electronic control circuit
that allows the circumferential speed of the band saw
blade to be freely adjusted.
Prior to operation, use the band saw blade circumferential
speed setting dial to set a mode that suits the properties,
thickness and task conditions of the workpiece being
cut.
○ In Standard Mode, the circumferential speed of the
band saw blade can be freely set from 1 to 5 on the
dial.
On the dial, 1 is the lowest speed and 5 is the highest
speed.
In Standard Mode, the circumferential speed that is
set with the dial is maintained even when the load
changes.
○ In AUTO Mode ("A" on the dial), noise can be reduced
and the duration of operation can be extended by
lowering the circumferential speed when there is no
load.
In AUTO Mode, if a load is applied during operation,
the circumferential speed is automatically increased.
(Equivalent of 5 on the dial)
Additionally, if the load becomes lighter after
cutting is completed, the circumferential speed
is automatically
consumption when there is no load.
