FAQs
What is the main advantage of the brushless motor?
The AC brushless motor eliminates wearing parts like carbon brushes, leading to a significantly extended product life cycle, reduced maintenance, and increased reliability, especially in demanding work environments.
Can I use this demolition hammer with any generator?
Yes, its built-in high-efficiency inverter circuit makes it compatible with engine generators that do not have an onboard inverter, provided they can supply a stable 110v output.
How do I adjust the impact rate?
The impact rate can be adjusted using the dedicated impact rate selector switch, which offers four distinct settings to match different applications and materials.
Is this tool suitable for prolonged use?
Yes, the H60MEY is designed for demanding tasks. Features like the low vibration handle and robust construction contribute to user comfort and tool durability during extended operation.
What are the maintenance requirements for the brushless motor?
The brushless motor is virtually maintenance-free as it has no wearing parts like carbon brushes. Regular cleaning of the exterior and ensuring ventilation slots are clear are the primary care steps.
Does the tool come with bits included?
Typically, demolition hammers are sold as the tool body only, and bits are purchased separately. Please check the product packaging or retailer information for exact contents.
What is the power requirement for this tool?
The Hikoki Demolition Hammer H60MEY requires a 110v power supply.
Troubleshooting
Tool not starting
Check that the power cord is securely connected to a live 110v outlet or that the engine generator is operational and providing power. Ensure the power switch is in the 'on' position.
Reduced impact force or speed
Verify the selected impact rate is appropriate for the task. Check for any obstructions around the bit holder or within the ventilation slots. Ensure the power supply is stable and adequate.
Excessive vibration
While the tool is designed for low vibration, ensure the bit is properly seated and not damaged. Inspect the low vibration handle for any signs of damage or wear.
Overheating
Ensure ventilation slots are clear and not blocked by dust or debris. Avoid prolonged continuous operation at maximum load without breaks, especially in very hot conditions.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Extended tool lifespan due to brushless motor technology.
- Reduced maintenance requirements with no carbon brushes to replace.
- Consistent performance, even with voltage fluctuations or when used with specific engine generators.
- Variable impact rates allow for application-specific adjustments.
- Improved user comfort with low vibration handle design.
- Robust construction ensures high durability on tough job sites.
Cons
- Operates on 110v, requiring a compatible power source or generator.
- Brushless motor technology may represent a higher initial investment compared to brushed motor tools.
- Requires understanding of generator compatibility for optimal use away from mains power.
- Specific maintenance needs, though reduced, still require attention to keep the tool in optimal condition.
- While durable, like all power tools, it is susceptible to damage from severe impact or misuse.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure the tool is connected to a stable 110v power source or a compatible engine generator. Insert the desired chisel bit firmly into the tool holder until it locks into place. Select the appropriate impact rate using the selector switch based on the material and task.
Compatibility: This tool requires a 110v power supply. It is compatible with engine generators that can provide a stable 110v output, especially those without an onboard inverter, due to its built-in inverter circuit. Use only approved accessory bits designed for demolition hammers.
Care: After use, wipe down the exterior with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Regularly inspect the tool bit and holder for wear or damage. Ensure ventilation slots are clear of obstructions. Store the tool in a clean, dry environment, preferably in its original case to protect it from impact and moisture.
