5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed
repair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
PRECAUTION
Keep children and infi rm persons away.
When not in use, tools should be stored out of reach
of children and infi rm persons.
CAUTIONS WHEN USING BLOWER
1. Use only the voltage shown on the nameplate to
supply power.
Using a voltage higher than shown will increase the
rotation speed abnormally and can cause injuries.
2. Do not put your hands or face near the blower
opening during use.
Doing so might lead to injuries.
3. Remove this unit a safe distance away from
electrical conductors when cleaning sections
carrying electrical power such as the electrical
panel.
4. Do not block the blower opening or intake.
Blocking the blower opening will cause an increase in
the motor rotation speed abnormally and might damage
the vanes on the inner section of the unit or cause
injuries. The motor might also overheat and cause a
fi re.

5. Do not use in locations where infl ammable
materials such as lacquer, paint, benzene, thinner
or gasoline are present. Also do not let items such
as lighted cigarette butts be suctioned inside at
such locations.
Explosion or fi res might result.
6. Do not use in environments subject to heavy
doses of chemicals, etc.
Plastic sections such as the vanes on the inner section
of the unit might weaken and break, and injuries might
occur.
7. If you notice the unit is operating poorly or making
abnormal noises, immediately stop using and shut
off the power switch. Request an inspection and
repair from the dealer where you purchased the
unit or a Hitachi Authorized Service Center.
Continuing to use while operating abnormally might
cause injuries.
8. If the unit is mistakenly dropped or strikes another
object, make a thorough check of the unit for
cracks, breakage or deformation, etc.
Injuries might occur if the unit has cracks, breakage or
deformation.
9. Do not use near objects generating high heat such
as stoves.
Fires might occur if used near such locations.
10. Make a thorough inspection if using the blower to
blow or clean viscous powder or dust particles.
Powder or dust particles might be suctioned in and
adhere internally, causing the vanes to break or injuries
to occur.
11. Do not leave on locations such as benches or
fl oors while still rotating.
Injuries might occur.

PRIOR TO OPERATION
1. Power source
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms
to the power requirements specifi ed on the product
nameplate.
2. Power switch
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF positon. If
the plug is connected to a receptacle while the power
switch is in the ON position, the power tool will start
operating immediately, which could cause a serious
accident.
3. Extension cord
When the work area is removed from the power source,
use an extension cord of suffi cient thickness and rated
capacity. The extension cord should be kept as short as
practicable.
4. Mounting the nozzle and dust bag
