Craftsman CLHT2422S-N User Manual

4 ― English

■ To reduce the risk of serious personal 

injury, do not store outside or in vehicles. 

Store idle cordless power tools out of children 
■ Do not allow persons unfamiliar with the 

cordless power tool or these instructions to 

operate the tool. Cordless power tools are 

dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
■ Maintain tools. Check for misalignment or 

binding of moving parts, breakage of parts 

and any other condition that may affect the 

tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool 

repaired before use. Many accidents are 

caused by poorly maintained tools.
■ Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. 

Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp 

cutting edges are less likely to bind and are 

easier to control.
■ Use the cordless power tool, accessories 

and tool bits etc., in accordance with these 

instructions, taking into account the working 

conditions and the work to be performed. 

Use of the tool for operations different from 

those intended could result in a hazardous 

situation.
■ Recharge only with the charger specified 

by the manufacturer and listed in the Parts 

List of this manual. A charger that is suitable 

for one type of battery pack may create a risk 

of fire when used with another battery pack.
■ Use cordless power tools only with 

specifically designated battery packs. Use of 

any battery packs may create a risk of injury 

and fire.
■ When battery pack is not in use, keep it 

away from other metal objects, like paper 

clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small 

metal objects that can make a connection 

from one terminal to another. Shorting the 

battery terminals together may cause burns 

or a fire.
■ 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 crush, drop or damage the battery 

pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger 

that has been dropped or received a sharp 

blow.
■ Do not open or mutilate the batteries. 

Released electrolyte is corrosive and may 

cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be 

toxic if swallowed.
■ Under extreme usage or temperature 

conditions, battery leakage may occur; 

liquid may be ejected from the battery: avoid 

contact. If liquid comes in contact with your 

skin, wash immediately with soap and water, 

then neutralize with lemon juice or vinegar. 

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.
■ Do not dispose of battery packs in fire. 

They will explode or leak and cause injury. 

Liquid ejected from the battery may cause 

irritation or burns.
■ Have your tool serviced by a qualified 

service centre using only identical 

replacement parts. This will ensure that the 

safety of the power tool is maintained.
