IMPORTANT SAFETY RULES FOR BATTERY
TOOLS
■
Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an 
electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in 
operating condition. Be aware of possible 
hazards when not using your battery tool or 
when changing accessories.
■
USE ONLY THE CHARGER PROVIDED WITH
YOUR BATTERY TOOL. Do not substitute any 
other charger. Use of another charger could 
cause batteries to explode causing possible 
serious injury.
■
DO NOT PLACE BATTERY TOOLS OR THEIR
BATTERIES NEAR FIRE OR HEAT. They may
explode.
■
DO NOT CHARGE BATTERY TOOL IN A 
DAMP OR WET LOCATION.
■
Your battery tool should be charged in a location 
where the temperature is more than 50°F but 
less than 100°F.
■
Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, 
battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in 
contact with your skin, wash immediately with
soap and water, then neutralize with lemon juice 
or vinegar. If liquid gets in your eyes, flush them 
with clean water for at least 10 minutes, then
seek immediate medical attention.
■
If carrying your battery tool at your side, make 
sure it is not running and your finger is not on the 
switch. Avoid accidental starting.
■
SECURE WORK before applying power. NEVER 
hold workpiece in your hand or across your legs.
■
WHEN SERVICING USE ONLY IDENTICAL 
CRAFTSMAN REPLACEMENT PARTS.
