4. Inspecting the safety cover for proper operation
Before each use of the tool, test the safety cover (see Fig. 6) to assure that it is in good condition and
that it moves smoothly.
Never use the tool unless the safety cover operates properly and it is in good mechanical condition.
5. Storage
After operation of the tool has been completed, check that the following has been performed:
(1) Trigger switch is in OFF position,
(2) Power plug has been removed from the receptacle,
(3) Lock-off button has been removed and stored in a secure place.
When the tool is not in use, keep it stored in a dry place out of the reach of children.
6. Lubrication
Lubricate the following sliding surfaces once a month to keep the power tool in good operating condi-
tion for a long time (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 2). Use of machine oil is recommended.
Oil supply points:
*Rotary portion of hinge
*Rotary portion of vise assembly
*Rotary portion of turntable and base (See Fig. 28)
7. Cleaning
Periodically remove chips, dust and other waste material from the surface of the power tool, especially
from the inside of the safety cover with a damp, soapy cloth. To avoid a malfunction of the motor,
protect it from contact with oil or water.
SERVICE AND REPAIRS
All quality power tools will eventually require servicing or replacement of parts because of wear from
normal use. To assure that only authorized replacement parts will be used and that the double insula-
tion system will be protected, all service (other than routine maintenance) must be performed by an
AUTHORIZED HITACHI POWER TOOL REPAIR CENTER ONLY.
NOTE: Specifications are subject to change without any obligation on the part of HITACHI.
