Important Safety Instructions for All
Battery Packs
WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instructions,
and cautionary markings for the battery pack,
charger and product. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury.
• Do not charge or use the battery pack in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust.
Inserting or removing the battery
pack from the charger may ignite the dust or fumes.
•
NEVER force the battery pack into the charger. DO
NOT modify the battery pack in any way to fit into a
non‑compatible charger as battery pack may rupture
causing serious personal injury.
Consult the chart
at the end of this manual for compatibility of batteries
and chargers.
• Charge the battery packs only in
CRAFTSMAN chargers.
• DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids.
•
DO NOT
allow water or any liquid to enter battery pack.
• Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in
locations where the temperature may reach or
exceed 104 °F (40 °C) (such as outside sheds or metal
buildings in summer).
For best life store battery packs in
a cool, dry location.
NOTE: Do not store the battery packs in a tool with
the trigger switch locked on. Never tape the trigger
switch in the ON position.
• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely
damaged or is completely worn out.
The battery pack
can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and materials are created
when lithium‑ion battery packs are burned.
• Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to fire or
excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperature
above 265 °F (130 °C) may cause explosion.
• If battery contents come into contact with the skin,
immediately wash area with mild soap and water.
If
battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open
eye for 15 minutes or until irritation ceases. If medical
attention is needed, the battery electrolyte is composed of a
mixture of liquid organic carbonates and lithium salts.
• Contents of opened battery cells may cause
respiratory irritation.
Provide fresh air. If symptoms
persist, seek medical attention.
• Battery liquid may be flammable if exposed to spark
or flame.
• Never attempt to open the battery pack for any
reason. If the battery pack case is cracked or
damaged, do not insert into the charger.
Do not crush,
drop or damage the battery pack. Do not use a battery pack
or charger that has received a sharp blow, been dropped,
run over or damaged in any way (e.g., pierced with a nail,
hit with a hammer, stepped on). Damaged battery packs
should be returned to the service center for recycling.

WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing
protection that conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19)
during use.
Under some conditions and duration
of use, noise from this product may contribute to
hearing loss.
• Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas
with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your
mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote absorption
of harmful chemicals. Direct particles away from face
and body.
• Use the appropriate dust extractor vacuum to remove
the vast majority of static and airborne dust . Failure
to remove static and airborne dust could contaminate the
working environment or pose an increased health risk to
the operator and those in close proximity.
• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be
avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side
on a stable surface where it will not cause a
tripping or falling hazard.
Some tools with large
battery packs will stand upright on the battery pack
but may be easily knocked over.
