SAFETY

BATTERYWARNING

Battery acid is caustic and fumes are explosive and can cause serious injury or death.

To reduce the risk of personal injury when working near a bat- tery:

When working with

battery

-=

acid, use protective

equipment

 

such as, but not limited to, goggles, face shield, rubber gloves and apron.

Avoid leaning over a battery.

Do not expose a battery to open flames or sparks.

Be sure batteries with filler caps are properly filled with fluid.

Do not allow battery acid to contact eyes or skin. Flush any contacted area with water immediately and get medical help.

Charge batteries in an open, well ventilated area, away from sparks and flames. Unplug charger before connecting or disconnecting from battery.

Stop the engine and allow to cool before storing.

Drain the fuel tank outdoors only.

Store fuel in an approved container in a cool, dry place.

Keep the machine and fuel containers in a locked storage place to prevent tampering and to keep children from playing with them.

When the machine is to be parked, stored or left unattended, lower the cutterdeck unless a posi- tive mechanical lock is used.

Do not store the machine or fuel container near

heating appliances with an open flame such as a water heater or an appliance with a pilot light.

Keep gasoline storage area free of grass, leaves and excessive grease to reduce fire hazard.

Clean grass and debris from cutting units, drives, mufflers and engine to help prevent fires.

,Be sure the jumper cables are in good condition. Turn off the ignition and all electrical accessories on both machines.

2.Position the machine with a good (charged) bat- tery next to but not touching the machine with the dead battery so jumper cables will reach.

3.When making cable connections:

make sure the clamps do not touch anywhere except to intended metal parts,

Never connect a positive ("+" or red) terminal to a negative ("-" or black) terminal.

Make sure the cables won'tget caught in any parts after the engines are started.

4.Connect one end of the first jumper cable to the positive terminal on one battery. Connect the other end to the positive terminal on the other battery.

5.Connect one end of the other cable to the negative terminal of the machine with a good (charged) battery. Make the final connection on the engine of the machine to be started, away from the battery.

6.Start the vehicle with the good battery, then the machine with the discharged battery.

7.Remove the cables in the exact reverse order of installation. When removing each clamp, take care it does not touch any other metal parts while the other end remains attached.

Craftsman 127.28877, 127.28876 manual Batterywarning, Equipment

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.
