(2) Mount the core bit shank on the Drill main body
in the same manner as in mounting the drill bit
and the bull point. (Fig. 9)
(3) Insert the center pin into the guide plate until it
reaches the extremity.
(4) Fit in the guide plate by aligning its concaved
portion with the core bit tip. When the position of
the concave is shifted by turning the guide plate
right or left, the guide plate never slips off even
when the Drill is used in a down ward direction.
(Fig. 10)
2. Drilling holes
(1) Insert the plug into a receptacle.
(2) A spring is built in the center pin. By straightly and
gently pressing it to the wall or floor surface, the
entire surface of the core bit tip attains contact to
start the hole drilling job. (Fig. 11)
(3) When the hole depth reaches approximately 5 mm,
the hole position can be determined.
Then remove the center pin and guide plate from
the core bit and continue the hole drilling job.
CAUTION
When removing the center pin and guide plate,
always disconnect the plug from the power supply
receptacle.
3. How to dismount the core bit (Fig. 12)
(1) By holding the rotary hammer (with the core bit
inserted) in an upward position, drive the rotary
hammer to repeat impact operation two or three
times, whereby the screw is loosened and the rotary
hammer becomes ready for disassembly.
(2) Remove the core bit shank from the rotary hammer,
hold the core bit with one hand, and strongly strike
the head of the hexagonal portion of the core bit
shank with a hand hammer two or three times,
whereby the round head screw is loosened and the
Drill is ready for disassembly.
HOW TO REPLACE GREASE
This machine is of full air-tight construction to protect
against dust and to prevent lubricant leakage.
Therefore, the machine can be used without lubrication
for long periods. Replace the grease as described below.
1. Grease replacement period
After purchase, replace grease after every 6 months
of usage. Ask for grease replacement at the nearest
authorized HITACHI Service Center.
2. Grease replacement
CAUTION
Before replacing the grease, turn the power off and
pull out the power plug.
(1) Remove the crank cover and wipe off the grease
inside. (Fig. 13)
(2) Apply 20 g of Hitachi Electric Hammer Grease A
(standard accessory, contained in tube) to the crank
case.
As the tube contain 30 g of grease, apply 2/3 of
the contained tube.
(3) After replacing the grease, install the crank case
securely.
NOTE
The Hitachi Electric Hammer Grease A is of the low
viscosity type. If necessary, purchase from an
authorized HITACH Service Center.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
1. Inspecting the tool
Since use of a dull tool will degrade efficiency and
cause possible motor malfunction, sharpen or
replace the tool 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. Inspecting the carbon brushes (Fig. 15)
The Motor employs carbon brushes which are
consumable parts. When they become worn to or
near the "wear limit", it could result in motor trouble.
When an auto-stop carbon brush is equipped, the
motor will stop automatically. At that time, replace
both carbon brushes with new ones which have the
same carbon brush Numbers shown in the figure.
In addition, always keep carbon brushes clean and
ensure that they slide freely within the brush holders.
5. Replacement procedure
Loosen the set screw and remove the cap cover.
Remove the brush cap and carbon brush.
After replacing the carbon brush, do not forget to
tighten the brush cap securely and to install the cap
cover.
