MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
CAUTION
Pull out battery before doing any inspection or maintenance.
1. Inspecting the nose grill
Before and after use, check and make sure
the nose grill, which covers the air intake, is
not damaged. If it is damaged, contact your
sales outlet or the Hitachi Authorized Service
Center to have it repaired.
2. Check the Screws
Loose screws are dangerous. Regularly
inspect them and make sure they are tight.
CAUTION
Using this blower with loosened, screws are
extremely dangerous.
3. Maintenance of the motor
The motor unit winding is the most important
part of the blower.
Exercise due care to ensure the winding does
not become damaged and/or wet with oil or
water.
4. Check for Dust
Dust may be removed with a soft cloth or a
cloth dampened with soapy water.
Do not use bleach, chlorine, gasoline or
thinner, for they may damage the plastics.
If the nose grill is blocked with debris, the
blower will work less efficiently.
Clean it gently when necessary with a soft
brush.

Storing in a place below 104°F (40°C) and out
of the reach of children.

Make sure that the battery is fully charged
when stored for a long period (3 months or

not be able to be charged when used, if stored
for a long period.
