4-1-2. Improved overload durability (improved cooling efficiency) The Models DS 18DMR and DS 14DMR are equipped with the separate-type motor that is the same as a driver drill with a power cord. To improve the overload durability in continuous operation, the optimally designed cooling air path that is descended from the Model DS 12DM increases the cooling efficiency as well as the large radial fan increases the volume of air (See Fig.

The sleeve can be turned with one hand. The driver bits can be easily replaced by holding the main unit with one hand while turning the sleeve with the other hand. The Models DS 18DMR and DS 14DMR are also equipped with the ratcheting lock mechanism to prevent the sleeve from loosening during operation.

8-1. Safety Instructions In the interest of promoting the safest and most efficient use of the Models DS 18DMR and DS 14DMR Cordless Driver Drills by all of 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.
Page 20
(7) Do not attempt to disassemble the Storage Battery or the Charger. Special devices, such as a thermostat, are built into the storage battery and charger to permit rapid charging. Incorrect parts replacement and/or wiring will cause malfunctions which could result in fire or other hazards. Instruct the customer to bring these units to an authorized service center in the event repair or replacement is necessary.
Page 21
(3) The following caution is listed on the Name Plate to the Model UC 24YJ Charger. For the U.S.A. and Canada For safe operation, see Instruction Manual. Charge HITACHI CAUTION rechargeable batteries types EB7, EB9, EB12, EB14, EB18 and EB24 series. Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.
(5) Variation in amount of work possible per charge Although the nominal chargeable capacity of the storage batteries used with the Model DS 18DMR and DS 14DMR is 2.0 Ah, 2.4 Ah, 2.6 Ah or 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.
Page 23
(6) Precautions in the use of HSS Drill Bits For example, although the Model DS 18DMR is designed for drilling capacities of 50 mm (2") in wood, and 13 mm (1/2") in aluminum and mild steel, this capability is not as efficient as conventional electric power tools.
9. REFERENCE MATERIALS 9-1. Speed Control Mechanism Spindle rotation speed of the Models DS 18DMR and DS 14DMR can be controlled by simply varying the amount by which the trigger switch is depressed. The relationship between the amount the trigger switch is depressed (in millimeters) and the rotation speed is illustrated in Fig.
10-1. Precautions in Disassembly and Reassembly The [Bold] numbers in the descriptions below correspond to the item numbers in the Parts List and exploded assembly diagrams for the Models DS 18DMR and DS 14DMR. 10-1-1. Disassembly (1) Removal of the Hook Ass'y [48] Remove the Special Screw (A) M5 [54] with a flat-blade screwdriver or a coin.
Page 26
(4) Adjust the frong Cap [4] to " ". (5) Disassembly of the main unit Remove the ten Tapping Screws (W/Flange) D3 x 16 (Black) [34] from the main unit. Holding the battery chamber of Housing (B) [36], gently remove Housing (B) [36]. Then the inside parts can be removed in an assembled or single state.
Page 27
(9) Disassembly of the power supply unit Disconnect each internal wire of Brush Block [31] and Terminals [45] [47] with a solder iron. (Note) Do not remove the fin secured to the DC-speed control switch with a screw. 10-1-2. Reassembly Reassembly can generally be carried out as the reverse of the disassembly procedure, with some items to be noted as follows.

Pay attention to the mounting direction of the Ring Gear [14], Slide Ring Gear [21], Pinion (C) [22] and Pinion (B) [24] (see Fig. 5). Mount the Front Case [10] to the Rear Case [18] so that the concave portion of the Front Case [10] aligns with the protrusion of the Rear Case [18] (see Fig.
Page 31
(5) Reassembly of the drive unit (a) Fit the protrusion of the Motor Spacer [28] in the concave portion of the Rear Case [18] engaging the pinion of the Armature and Pinion Set [29] with Planet Gear (A) Set (4 pcs.) [25]. Turn it fully clockwise viewing from the rear of the Armature and Pinion Set [29] (see Fig.
Page 32
(c) Mounting the Click Spring [11] and the Front Cap [4]. Mount the Click Spring [11] to the Front Case [10]. Mount the Front Cap [4]. Check that the protrusion of the Click Spring [11] is inserted into the groove inside the Front Cap [4]. (6) Reassembly of the main unit (a) Mount the power supply unit and the drive unit that were reassembled in the above procedure to Housing (A) [36].
Page 33
(R) side, the rotating direction of the Drill Chuck 13VLRK-N (W/O Chuck Wrench) [2] should be clockwise as viewed from behind. Switch on and off the Models DS 18DMR and DS 14DMR using the battery. Then turn the Drill Chuck 13VLRK-N (W/O Chuck Wrench) [2] by hand in forward and reverse direction to check that the spindle lock properly works in either direction within a half rotation.
