4. Disconnect the charger’s power cord from the
receptacle.
5. Hold the charger
fi
rmly and pull out the battery.
NOTE
Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger after use,
and then keep it.
Regarding electric discharge in case of new batteries,
etc.
As the internal chemical substance of new batteries and
batteries that have not been used for an extended period
is not activated, the electric discharge might be low when
using them the
fi
rst and second time. This is a temporary
phenomenon, and normal time required for recharging
will be restored by recharging the batteries 2 – 3 times.
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 charge indicator lamp of the charger lights
for 0.3 seconds, does not light for 0.3 seconds (o
ff
for
0.3 seconds). In such a case,
fi
rst let the battery cool,
then start charging.
○
When the charge indicator lamp
fl
ickers (at 0.2-second
intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in
the charger’s 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
fi
rm that the battery being charged with
UC18YSL3 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.

(*1) Removing and inserting the battery
NOTE
Ensure that the battery cover is securely closed unless
you are removing or installing the battery.
If any water, concrete, or dust enters the body of the
power tool or the terminals of the battery, a failure may
occur.
(*2) About the mode select function
NOTE
The mode change function will not work until the battery
is attached to the body of the power tool and the switch
trigger is pulled.
Note that pulling the switch trigger makes the rod begin
vibrating.

OPERATION
CAUTION
○
Put the vibrating rod into the concrete while exercising
care to ensure that it does not touch steel bars or
formwork.
○
Do not place heavy objects on the
fl
exible hose or
trample on it.
○
Do not bend the
fl
exible hose excessively when the
power tool is being used.
○
When you
fi
nish using the power tool, turn the switch
o
ff
and wait until vibration stops before putting the tool
down.
If the power tool is placed in a dusty location before it
stops vibrating, it may suck up dust, which may cause a
failure.
