APPLICATION
For charging the HITACHI BATTERY EBM315.
CHARGING
Before using the power tool, charge the battery as
follows.
1. Insert the charger connecting plug into the connecting
socket of the charger (Fig. 1)
2. Connect to the power source
When using the AC adapter
Plug the AC adapter into the power outlet.
CAUTION
Do not use the electrical cord if damaged. Have
it repaired immediately.
When using the cigarette lighter connecting plug
Secure the battery charger in place in the car.
Use the strap supplied with the battery charger to
fasten the battery charger in place and prevent it
from moving inadvertently. (See Fig. 2)
CAUTION
Do not place the battery charger or battery under
the driver's seat. Secure the battery charger in
place to prevent it from moving inadvertently
as this may lead to an accident.
Insert the cigarette lighter connecting plug into the
cigarette lighter socket.
If the plug is loose and falls out of the cigarette
lighter socket, repair the socket. As the socket may
be faulty, you are recommended to contact your
local car dealer. Continued use of the socket may
result in an accident due to overheating.
3. Insert the battery in the charger
Position the battery so that the nameplate faces
toward the nameplate of the charger and press in
the battery until it comes into contact with the
bottom plate (See Fig. 1).
Inserting the battery 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 receptacle and check the
battery mounting condition.
The pilot lamp goes off to indicate that the battery
is fully charged.

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.
Regarding recharging time
Table 1 shows the recharging time required
according to the type of battery.

NOTE: The recharging time may vary according to the
ambient temperature.
4. Disconnect battery charger from the receptacle or
cigarette lighter socket
5. Hold the charger firmly and pull out the battery
NOTE
Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger
after use, and then keep it.
Regarding electric discharge in case of new batteries,
etc.
As the internal chemical substance of new batteries
and batteries that have not been used for an
extended period is not activated, the electric
discharge might be low when using them the first
and second time. This is a temporary phenomenon,
and normal time required for recharging will be
restored by recharging the batteries 2-3 times.
How to make the batteries perform longer.
(1) Recharge the batteries before they become
completely exhausted.
When you feel that the power of the tool becomes
weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery.
If you continue to use the tool and exhaust the
electric current, the battery may be damaged and
its life will become shorter.
(2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures.
A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after
use. If such a battery is recharged immediately after
use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate,
and the battery life will be shortened. Leave the
battery and recharge it after it has cooled for a
while.
