7-1. Safety Instructions In the interest of promoting the safest and most efficient use of the Model CR 24DV by all our customers, it is very important that at the time of sale the salesperson carefully ensures that the buyer seriously recognizes the importance of the contents of the Handling Instructions, and fully understands the meaning of the precautions listed on the Caution Plate and Name Plate attached to each tool.

Ensure that all customers understand that Model EB 2420 or EB 2430HA Storage Batteries should be returned to the Hitachi power tool sales outlet or authorized service center when they are no longer capable of being recharged or repaired. If thrown into a fire, the batteries may explode, or if discarded indiscriminately, leakage of the cadmium compound contained in the battery may cause environmental pollution.
(3) Variation in amount of work possible per charge Although the nominal chargeable capacity of the storage batteries used with the Model CR 24DV is 2.0 Ah and 3.0 Ah, the actual capacity may vary within 10% of that value depending on the ambient temperature during use and charging, and the number of times the batteries have been recharged.
7-3. Front Cover [WARNING] The Model CR 24DV is equipped with the front cover to protect the operator against possible electric shock, and it is not intended for cutting live lines. The front cover covers both the gear cover and the upper cover to protect the operator against electric shock in the event that a live line is accidentally cut and electricity flows from the blade to the metallic enclosure.
