drilled dry.
• For masonry, such as brick, cement, cinder block, etc.,
use carbide-tipped bits rated for percussion drilling.

Wall Mounting
Some CRAFTSMAN chargers are designed to be wall
mountable or to sit upright on a table or work surface.
If wall mounting, locate the charger within reach of
an electrical outlet, and away from a corner or other
obstructions which may impede air flow. Use the back
of the charger as a template for the location of the
mounting screws on the wall. Mount the charger securely
using drywall screws (purchased separately) at least 1”
(25.4 mm) long, with a screw head diameter of 0.28–0.35”
(7–9 mm), screwed into wood to an optimal depth leaving
approximately 7/32” (5.5 mm) of the screw exposed. Align
the slots on the back of the charger with the exposed
screws and fully engage them in the slots.
nOTE:
Do not attempt to mount CMCB101 charger under a
bench or table.
nOTE:
Only mount CMCB101 charger with the charging
lights pointed upward toward the ceiling.
