maintenance of the POWER TOOL. Some illustrations in this manual may show details or
attachments that differ from those on your own POWER TOOL.
DOUBLE INSULATION FOR SAFER OPERATION
To ensure safer operation of this electric power tool, HITACHI has adopted a double
insulation system. "Double insulation" as used here, means a system of two insulations
physically separated and arranged between electrically conductive materials connected to
the power supply and to the outer frame handled by the operator. Therefore, the nameplate
shows both the " " mark and "Double insulation" or either one on the power tool.
Although this system has no external grounding, you must still follow the normal safety
precautions given in this manual.
To keep the double insulation system effective, follow these precautions;
* To avoid lessening the double insulation-feature, always get in touch with your dealer or
an authorized HITACHI power tool repair shop when assembling, disassembling or
replacing parts other than accessories or carbon brushes.
* Clean the exterior of the tool with a soft cloth moistened in soap water, and dry thoroughly.
Don't use chloric solvent, gasoline or thinner on plastic components; otherwise they might
dissolve.
