BATTERY & CHARGER
BATTERY SAFETY RULES
• 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.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of
electric shock, fire, or serious personal
injury.
• Do not place battery tools or their batteries
near fire or heat. This will reduce the risk of
explosion and possibly injury.
• Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack.
Do not use a battery pack or charger that
has been dropped or received a sharp blow.
A damaged battery is subject to explosion.
Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged
battery immediately.
• Batteries can explode in the presence of a
source of ignition, such as a pilot light. To
reduce the risk of serious personal injury,
never use any cordless product in the
presence of open flame. An exploded battery
can propel debris and chemicals. If exposed,
flush with water immediately.
• Do not charge battery tool in a damp or wet
location. Following this rule will reduce the
risk of electric shock.
• For best results, your battery tool should be
charged in a location where the temperature
is more than 45°F but less than 104°F. To
reduce the risk of serious personal injury, do
not store outside or in vehicles.
• Under extreme usage or temperature
conditions, battery leakage may occur. If
liquid comes in contact with your skin, wash
immediately with soap and water. If liquid gets
into your eyes, flush them with clean water
for at least 10 minutes, then seek immediate
medical attention. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
Use only Craftsman
replacement batteries; other batteries may
cause injury or damage to the mower.
