SAFETY

MAINTENANCE SAFETY

in general

Maintain machine according to manufacturer's schedule and instructions for maximum safety and best mowing results.

Park machine on level ground.

Never allow untrained personnel to service ma- chine.

Adjust or repair only after the engine has been stopped and the blades have quit rotating.

Inspect grass catcher components regularly. If worn, damaged or deteriorated, they may expose moving parts or allow objects to be thrown.

Replace parts if worn, damaged or faulty. For best results, always replace with parts recommended by the manufacturer.

Disconnect battery or remove spark plug wire(s) before making any repairs. Disconnect the negative terminal first and the positive last. Re- connect positive first and negative last.

Do not dismantle the machine without releasing or restraining forces which may cause parts to move suddenly.

Provide adequate support, e.g. jackstands for lifted machine or parts if working beneath.

Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating parts.

Clean up spilled oil or fuel thoroughly.

Replace faulty mufflers.

To reduce fire hazards, keep the engine, muffler, battery compartment and fuel storage area free of grass, leaves, debris buildup or grease.

Hydraulic fluid can penetrate skin, use paper to check for leaks. Relieve hydraulic pressure before disconnecting hoses. Make sure connections are tight and hoses are in good condition.

WARNING

Blades

Mower blades are sharp and can cut. Use extra caution when handling. Remove ob- structions with care. Wrap the blade(s) or wear gloves.

Be aware that rotating one

blade on multi-blade mowers can cause other blades to rotate.

Only replace blades. Never straighten or weld them.

Keep other persons away from blades.

WARNING

Fuel

Gasoline and diesel fuels are flammable; gasoline vapors are explosive. Use extra care when handling.

Store only in containers spe- cifically designed for fuel.

When refueling or checking fuel level:

-Stop the engine and allow to cool;

-Do not smoke;

-Refuel outdoors only;

-Use a funnel;

-Do not overfill;

-If fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start the

engine until the spill is cleaned up and vapors have cleared.

Sparks from static electricity can start fires or cause explosions. Flowing fuel can generate static

electricity. To prevent static electricity sparks:

Keep containers electrically grounded. Do not fill containers in a vehicle or on a truck or trailer bed

with a plastic liner. Fill containers on the ground away from the vehicle.

When practical, remove gas powered equip- ment from the truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If equipment must be refueled on the truck or trailer, refuel from a portable container rather than a dispenser nozzle.

Keep the dispenser nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or container opening until fueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.

Replace caps on fuel cans and tanks securely.

127.28876, 127.28877 specifications

The Craftsman 127.28877 and 127.28876 are a pair of high-performance cordless drills designed for both professional tradespeople and DIY enthusiasts. These models exemplify the blend of power, versatility, and user-friendly design that Craftsman tools are known for.

One of the standout features of both models is their brushless motor technology. This innovation enhances efficiency, delivering more power and runtime than traditional brushed motors. It also reduces heat generation, leading to prolonged tool life. With a high-torque output, these drills can easily handle demanding applications, making them ideal for tasks such as drilling into wood, metal, and masonry.

Both models come equipped with a two-speed transmission. This feature allows users to select the optimal speed based on the specific task at hand—whether it’s high-speed drilling for smaller holes or low-speed drilling for driving larger fasteners. The variable speed trigger further provides enhanced control, enabling a precise and seamless drilling experience.

The design of the Craftsman 127.28877 and 127.28876 is ergonomic, featuring a soft-grip handle that minimizes hand fatigue during extended use. The compact and lightweight structure allows for easy maneuverability in tight spaces, making it suitable for various job sites.

Another notable characteristic is the LED work light integrated into the drills, providing illumination in dimly lit areas. This feature ensures that users can work effectively without needing to reposition other lighting sources.

Battery compatibility is another key advantage of these models. Both drills utilize the Craftsman 20V MAX battery platform, allowing users to interchange batteries between different tools within the same line. This feature not only enhances convenience but also maximizes productivity by reducing downtime due to battery changes.

Finally, the construction of the Craftsman drills includes rugged materials that resist wear and tear, assuring durability over years of use. With a combination of advanced technology, user-centered design, and robust performance, the Craftsman 127.28877 and 127.28876 are invaluable additions to any tool collection, providing reliability and efficiency for a range of projects.
