(*1) About the mode select function
Each time the mode selector switch is pushed, the
operation mode changes.
When Silent mode is selected, the Silent mode indicator
lamp lights up.
Silent mode reduces maximum motor RPM enabling
effi cient work with less noise.
If the load increases while the motor is operating in
Silent mode, it automatically changes to Power mode.
Additionally, if the load decreases again, it automatically
returns to Silent mode.
In Power mode, no change is made to Silent mode even
when the load decreases.

NOTE
○ The mode will only change after a battery is installed and
the switch is pulled once.
○ The current mode will be maintained even if the switch is
on/off , or the battery is removed/reinserted.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

1. Inspecting the saw blade
Since use of as dull saw blade will degrade effi ciency
and cause possible motor malfunction, sharpen or
replace the saw blade as soon as abrasion is noted.
2. Inspecting the mounting screws
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure that
they are properly tightened. Should any of the screws be
loose, retighten them immediately. Failure to do so could
result in serious hazard.
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. Maintenance of lower guard
For safe and proper working, always keep the machine
and ventilation slots clean. The lower guard must
always be able to more freely and retract automatically.
Therefore, always keep the area around the lower guard
clean. Remove dust and chips by blowing out with
compressed air or with a brush.
5. Cleaning on the outside
When the power tool is stained, wipe with a soft dry cloth
or a cloth moistened with soapy water. Do not use chloric
solvents, gasoline or paint thinner, for they melt plastics.

6. Storage
Storing in a place below 40°C and out of the reach of
children.
NOTE
Storing lithium-ion batteries.
Make sure the lithium-ion batteries have been fully
charged before storing them.
Prolonged storage (3 months or more) of batteries with
a low charge may result in performance deterioration,
signifi cantly reducing battery usage time or rendering
the batteries incapable of holding a charge.
However, signifi cantly reduced battery usage time may
be recovered by repeatedly charging and using the
batteries two to fi ve times.
If the battery usage time is extremely short despite
repeated charging and use, consider the batteries dead
and purchase new batteries.
CAUTION
In the operation and maintenance of power tools, the
safety regulations and standards prescribed in each
country must be observed.
Important notice on the batteries for the Hitachi
cordless power tools
Please always use one of our designated genuine
batteries. We cannot guarantee the safety and
performance of our cordless power tool when used with
batteries other than these designated by us, or when
the battery is disassembled and modifi ed (such as
disassembly and replacement of cells or other internal
parts).
GUARANTEE
We guarantee Hitachi Power Tools in accordance with
statutory/country specifi c regulation. This guarantee does
not cover defects or damage due to misuse, abuse, or
normal wear and tear. In case of complaint, please send
the Power Tool, undismantled, with the GUARANTEE
CERTIFICATE found at the end of this Handling instruction,
to a Hitachi Authorized Service Center.
Information concerning airborne noise and vibration
The measured values were determined according to
EN60745 and declared in accordance with ISO 4871.
Measured A-weighted sound power level: 93 dB (A)
Measured A-weighted sound pressure level: 82 dB (A)
Uncertainty K: 3 dB (A).
Wear hearing protection.
Vibration total values (triax vector sum) determined
according to EN60745.
Cutting chipboard:
Vibration emission value
Uncertainty K = 1.5 m/s
The declared vibration total value has been measured in
accordance with a standard test method and may be used
for comparing one tool with another.
It may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING
○ The vibration emission during actual use of the power
tool can diff er from the declared total value depending in
the ways in which the tool is used.
