To disconnect, firmly grasp the cordless tool unit, press the latches on both sides of the adapter, and pull out.

(2)Operation

WARNING: ALWAYS follow the tool unit instruction manual for handling cordless tools. Extend the output cable during use. Using the cable tightly coiled risks overheating.

Like operation with the battery, trigger the switch for operation, and release it to stop.

3.DC Power Source Lamp

(1) Normal Use

When the adapter is connected and “power source ready” red lamp is continuously lit, the cordless tool can be used by triggering the switch.

(2)Output may stop in the following conditions.

1 High temperature protection

Work involving large continuous current and intense continuous work in high temperature locations will raise the internal temperature of the charger. To prevent breakdowns caused by high temperatures, stop the output, and the red lamp will flicker (0.2 second cycle) repeatedly. Rest the charger for at least 30 minutes.

Then, unplug the charger from the outlet, wait 20 seconds, and plug it in again. (This

resets the output function, and restores output voltage.)

2Continuous overuse protection

When a cordless tool is used continuously for a long time without breaks (such as work which would consume three Hitachi 2Ah batteries in one hour), stop the output, and the red lamp will flicker (0.2 second cycle) repeatedly. Rest the cordless tool for at least 30 minutes.

Then, unplug the charger from the outlet, wait 20 seconds, and plug it in again. (This resets the output function, and restores output voltage.)
