Maintenance And Inspection - Hitachi DH 38YE2 Mode D'emploi

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

WARNING:
Be sure to switch power OFF and disconnect the plug from the receptacle during maintenance and inspection.
1. Inspecting the drill bits
Since use of a dull tool will cause motor
malfunctioning and degraded efficiency, replace
the drill bit with a new one or resharpening without
delay when abrasion is noted.
2. Inspecting the screws
Regularly inspect all screws and ensure that they
are properly tightened. Should any of the screws
be loose, retighten them immediately.
WARNING:
Using this Rotary Hammer with loosen screws is
extremely dangerous.
3. Maintenance of the motor
The motor unit winding is the very "heart" of the
power tool. Exercise due care to ensure the
winding does not become damaged and/or wet
with oil or water.
4. Inspecting the carbon brushes: (Fig. 17)
The motor employs carbon brushes which are
consumable parts. When they become worn to or
near "wear limit", it could result in motor trouble.
When an auto-stop carbon brush is equipped, the
motor will stop automatically. At that time, replace
both carbon brushes with new ones which have
the same carbon brush Nos. shown in the figure.
In addition, always keep carbon brushes clean and
ensure that they slide freely within the brush
holders.
CAUTION:
Using this Rotary Hammer with a carbon brush
which is worn in excess of the wear limit will
damage the motor.
