GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS WARNING

Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, re and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term power tool in the warnings refers to your mains- operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool. 1) Work area safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive

atmospheres, such as in the presence of ammable liquids, gases or dust.

Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.

Distractions can cause you to lose control. 2) Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed

(grounded) power tools. Unmodi ed plugs and matching outlets will reduce

risk of electric shock. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded

surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.

There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.

Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.

Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.

Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.

Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply.

Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock. 3) Personal safety

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool.

Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the in uence of drugs, alcohol or medication.

A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.

Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the o -position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.

Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on.

A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts.

Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.

Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards. 4) Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.

The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and o .

Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/ or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.

Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.

Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may a ect the power tools operation.

If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.

Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting

edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed.

Use of the power tool for operations di erent from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5) Battery tool use and care a) Recharge only with the charger speci ed by the

manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack

may create a risk of re when used with another battery pack.

b) Use power tools only with speci cally designated battery packs.

000Book_P14DSL.indb 7 2017/12/04 15:25:13

8

Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and re.

c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another.

Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a re.

d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.

Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

6) Service a) Have your power tool serviced by a quali ed

repair person using only identical replacement parts.

This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

PRECAUTION Keep children and in rm persons away. When not in use, tools should be stored out of reach of children and in rm persons.

CORDLESS PLANER SAFETY WARNINGS 1. Wait for the cutter to stop before settling the tool

down. An exposed rotating cutter may engage the surface

leading to possible loss of control and serious injury. 2. Use clamps or another practical way to secure and

support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by your hand or against the body leaves

it unstable and may lead to loss of control. 3. Do not use the Planer with the blades facing upward (as

stationary type planer). 4. Do not allow foreign matter to enter the hole for

connecting the rechargeable battery. 5. Never disassemble the rechargeable battery and

NOTE The recharging time may vary according to the ambient

temperature and power source voltage. CAUTION When the battery charger has been continuously used,

the battery charger will be heated, thus constituting the cause of the failures. Once the charging has been completed, give 15 minutes rest until the next charging.

4. Disconnect the chargers power cord from the receptacle.

5. Hold the charger rmly and pull out the battery. NOTE Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger after use,

and then keep it.

How to make the batteries perform longer

(1) Recharge the batteries before they become completely exhausted.

When you feel that the power of the tool becomes weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery. If you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric current, the battery may be damaged and its life will become shorter.

(2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures. A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after use.

If such a battery is recharged immediately after use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and the battery life will be shortened. Leave the battery and recharge it after it has cooled for a while.

CAUTION If the battery is charged while it is heated because it has

been left for a long time in a location subject to direct sunlight or because the battery has just been used, the pilot lamp of UC18YFSL charger lights for 1 second, does not light for 0.5 seconds (o for 0.5 seconds), or the charge indicator lamp of UC18YSL3 charger lights for 0.3 seconds, does not light for 0.3 seconds (o for 0.3 seconds). In such a case, rst let the battery cool, then start charging.

When the pilot lamp or charge indicator lamp ickers in red (at 0.2-seconds intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in the chargers battery connector. If there are no foreign objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service Center.

Since the built-in micro computer takes about 3 seconds to con rm that the battery being charged with charger is taken out, wait for a minimum of 3 seconds before reinserting it to continue charging. If the battery is reinserted within 3 seconds, the battery may not be properly charged.

If the pilot lamp or charge indicator lamp does not blink in red (every second) even though the charger cord is connected to the power, it indicates that the protection circuit of the charger may be activated.

Remove the cord from the power and then connect it again after 30 seconds or so. If this does not cause the pilot lamp or charge indicator lamp to blink in red (every second), please take the charger to the HiKOKI Authorized Service Center.

HOW TO RECHARGE USB DEVICE (ONLY WITH UC18YSL3 CHARGER) (1) Select a charging method Depending on the charge method selected, either the

battery is inserted into the charger or the power cord is plugged into an outlet. Charging a USB device from an electrical outlet

(Fig. 8-a) Charging a USB device and battery from an electrical

outlet (Fig. 8-b) (2) Connect the USB cable. (Fig. 9) Pull back the rubber cover and rmly plug in a

commercially available USB cable (appropriate to the device being charged) into the USB port.

(3) When charging is completed To verify charge status, check the USB device. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet. Place the rubber cover over the USB port.

PRIOR TO OPERATION 1. Setting up and checking the work environment Check if the work environment is suitable by following the

precautions. 2. Power switch Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position. If the

battery is attached to the body while the power switch is in the ON position, the power tool will start operating immediately, which could cause a serious accident.

3. Prepare a stable wooden workbench suitable for planing operation. As a poorly balanced workbench creates a hazard, ensure it is securely positioned on rm, level ground.

PLANING PROCEDURES 1. Operation of switch (Fig. 10) (1) For safe operation of the machine, a switch lock is

provided on the side of a handle. If the switch trigger is pulled in a state where switch

lock is pressed in the direction of the arrow mark, the main switch can be turned ON.

(2) After the switch is turned ON, even when you release your hand from the switch lock, the body continues running and the light continues being turned ON as long as you keep on pulling the switch trigger.

(3) If you release the switch trigger, you can turn OFF the switch and the switch lock returns to the original position automatically.

CAUTION Do not x and secure the switch lock. Besides, keep

your nger o the switch trigger when the planer is being carried around. Otherwise, the main body switch can be inadvertently turned ON, resulting in unexpected accidents.

2. About remaining battery indicator When pressing the remaining battery indicator switch,

the remaining battery indicator lamp lights and the battery remaining power can be checked. (Fig. 11)

When releasing your nger from the remaining battery indicator switch, the remaining battery indicator lamp goes o . The Table 4 shows the state of remaining battery indicator lamp and the battery remaining power.

Table 4 State of lamp Battery Remaining Power

The battery remaining power is enough.

The battery remaining power is a half.

The battery remaining power is nearly empty. Re-charge the battery soonest possible.

As the remaining battery indicator shows somewhat di erently depending on ambient temperature and battery characteristics, read it as a reference. NOTE Do not give a strong shock to the switch panel or break it.

It may lead to a trouble. To save the battery power consumption, the remaining

battery indicator lamp lights while pressing the remaining battery indicator switch.

3. Adjusting the cutter depth (1) Turn the knob in the direction indicated by the arrow in

Fig. 12 (clockwise), until the triangular mark is aligned with the desired cutting depth on the scale. The scale unit is graduated in millimeters.

(2) The cutting depth can be adjusted within a range of 0-2.0 mm.

4. Surface cutting Rough cutting should be accomplished at large cutting

depths and at a suitable speed so that shavings are smoothly ejected from the machine.

To ensure a smoothly nished surface, nish cutting should be accomplished at small cutting depths and at low feeding speed.

5. Beginning and ending the cutting operation As shown in Fig. 13, place the front base of the planer on

the material and support the planer horizontally. Turn ON the power switch, and slowly operate the planer toward the leading edge of the material. Firmly depress the front half of the planer at the rst stage of cutting, as shown in Fig. 14, depress the rear half of the planer at the end of the cutting operation. The planer must always be kept at throughout the entire cutting operation.

6. Precaution after nishing the planing operation When the planer is suspended with one hand after

nishing the planing operation, ensure that the cutting blades (base) of the planer do not contact or come too near your body. Failure to do so could result in serious injury.

7. Stand Lift the back of the planer to extend the foot from the

base. Having the stand extended when you put the planer down prevents contact between the blade and the material. (Fig. 15)

8. Regulating the guide (Fig. 16) The planing position can be regulated by moving the

guide to the left or right after loosening its set screw. The guide may be mounted on either the right or left side of the tool.

Work Precautions About Continuous Operation This tool is provided with a protective function to extend

battery life. The battery may become overheated during continuous

operation or deep cutting operations, which may cause it to automatically stop.

Especially with any of the batteries listed below, the tool may stop operation before the battery starts to get hot to prevent rapid failure from overheating.

SHARPENING THE RESHARPENABLE BLADES Use of the accessory Blade Sharpening Ass'y is recommended for convenience. 1. Use of Blade Sharpening Ass'y As shown in Fig. 34, two blades can be mounted on the

blade sharpening ass'y to ensure that the blade tips are ground at uniform angles. During grinding, adjust the position of the blades so that their edges simultaneously contact the dressing stone as shown in Fig. 35.

2. Blade sharpening intervals Blade sharpening intervals depend on the type of wood

being cut and the cutting depth. However, sharpening should generally be e ected after each 500 meters of cutting operation.

3. Grinding allowance of the cutter blades As illustrated in Fig. 36, a grinding allowance of 3.5mm

is provided for on the cutter blade. That is, the cutter blade can be repeatedly sharpened until its total height is reduced to 24.5 mm.

4. Grinding Stone When a water grinding stone is available, use it after

dipping it su ciently in water since such a grinding stone may be worn during grinding procedures, atten the upper surface of the grinding stone as frequently as possible.

ATTACHING AND DETACHING THE DUST ADAPTER (OPTIONAL ACCESSORY) CAUTION To prevent accidents, ensure that the power tool is

switched o and pull out the battery. Follow the procedure below to mount the dust adapter

securely. Failure to do so may result in the adapter coming o , causing injury.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION 1. Inspecting the blades Continued use of dull or damaged blades will result in

reduced cutting e ciency and may cause overloading of the motor. Sharpen or replace the blades as often as necessary.

2. Handling CAUTION The front base, rear base, and cutting depth control

knob are precisely machined to obtain speci cally high precision. If these parts are roughly handled or subjected to heavy mechanical impact, it may cause deteriorated precision and reduced cutting performance. These parts must be handled with particular care.

3. 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

4. Inspecting the carbon brushes (Fig. 39) The motor employs carbon brushes which are

consumable parts. Since and excessively worn carbon brush can result in motor trouble, replace the carbon brush with new ones when it becomes worn to or near the wear limit. In addition, always keep carbon brushes clean and ensure that they slide freely within the brush holders.

NOTE When replacing the carbon brush with a new one, be sure

to use the HiKOKI Carbon Brush Code No. 999017. 5. Replacing carbon brushes After removing the chip cover, take out the carbon brush

by rst removing the brush cap and then hooking the protrusion of the carbon brush with a slotted head screw driver, etc., as shown in Fig. 40.

When installing the carbon brush, choose the direction so that the nail of the carbon brush agrees with the contact portion outside the brush tube. Then push it in with a nger as illustrated in Fig. 41. Lastly, install the brush cap.

CAUTION Be absolutely sure to insert the nail of the carbon brush

into the contact portion outside the brush tube. (You can insert whichever one of the two nails provided.)

Caution must be exercised since any error in this operation can result in the deformed nail of the carbon brush and may cause motor trouble at an early stage.

6. 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. 7. Cleaning on the outside When the planer is stained, wipe with a soft dry cloth or

a cloth moistened with soapy water. Do not use chloric solvents, gasoline or paint thinner, for they melt plastics.

8. Storage Store the planer in a place in which the temperature is

less than 40C and out of reach of children. NOTE Storing lithium-ion batteries Make sure the lithium-ion batteries have been fully

charged before storing them. Prolonged storage (3 months or more) of batteries with

a low charge may result in performance deterioration, signi cantly reducing battery usage time or rendering the batteries incapable of holding a charge.

However, signi cantly reduced battery usage time may be recovered by repeatedly charging and using the batteries two to ve times.

If the battery usage time is extremely short despite repeated charging and use, consider the batteries dead and purchase new batteries.

9. Service parts list CAUTION Repair, modi cation and inspection of HiKOKI Power

Tools must be carried out by a HiKOKI Authorized Service Center.

This Parts List will be helpful if presented with the tool to the HiKOKI Authorized Service Center when requesting repair or other maintenance.

In the operation and maintenance of power tools, the safety regulations and standards prescribed in each country must be observed.

MODIFICATIONS HiKOKI Power Tools are constantly being improved

and modi ed to incorporate the latest technological advancements.

Accordingly, some parts may be changed without prior notice.

Important notice on the batteries for the HiKOKI cordless power tools Please always use one of our designated genuine batteries. We cannot guarantee the safety and performance of our cordless power tool when used with batteries other than these designated by us, or when the battery is disassembled and modi ed (such as disassembly and replacement of cells or other internal parts).

NOTE Due to HiKOKIs continuing program of research and development, the speci cations herein are subject to change without prior notice.
