SAFETY

Starting

Start only according to instructions in this manual or on the machine.

Before attempting to start the engine, make sure:

-the parking brake is on;

-the PTO is disengaged;

-the traction drive is in NEUTRAL.

When starting the engine, make sure hands and feet are clear of the blades.

Do not start the machine while standing in front

of the discharge chute or with the chute directed at someone.

Do not engage PTO at full throttle. Throttle to idle or lowest possible engine speed.

Do not change engine governor settings or over-speed the engine. Operating the engine at excessive speed can increase the hazard of personal injury.

interrupting operation

Before leaving the operator's position:

-Park on level ground.

-Disengage the PTO.

-Set the parking brake.

-Shut off the engine and remove the key.

Disengage the PTO and wait until the blades quit rotating:

-before raising cutterdeck;

-when not mowing;

-for transport;

-when crossing surfaces other than grass.

Stop the engine, disengage the PTO, set parking brake and wait until the blades quit rotating and lower cutting unit:

-before refueling;

-before removing grass catcher;

-before making height adjustment unless the adjustment can be made from the operator's position.

Stop the engine, disengage the PTO, set parking brake and disconnect the spark plug wire(s) or remove the key:

-before clearing blockages or unclogging chute;

-before checking, cleaning or working on the machine;

-after striking a foreign object. Inspect the machine for damage and make repairs before restarting;

-if the machine begins to vibrate abnormally: shut off machine immediately. Inspect and make repairs as needed before restarting;

-except for repairs or adjustments as specifically noted, such as for carburetor adjustment, where the engine must be running. Keep

hands and feet clear of moving parts in these circumstances.

Allow the blades to come to a complete stop when stopping operation to clear blockages, unclog, inspect the machine, do maintenance or repair.

Reduce the throttle setting during engine shut- down and, if the engine is provided with a shut- off valve, turn the fuel off at the conclusion of mowing.

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.
