SAFETY RULES
WARNING! Read and understand all instructions.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal
injury.
Battery tools do not have to be plugged into an
electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in
operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards
when not using your battery tool or when changing
accessories. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
electric shock, fire, or serious personal injury.
Do not place battery tools or their batteries near
fire or heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and
possibly injury.
Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not
use a battery pack or charger that has been dropped
or received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject
to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged
battery immediately.
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 charge battery tool in a damp or wet location.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock.
Charge only with Craftsman 19.2V dual-chemistry
battery chargers. Use of other chargers may result in
personal injury, fire, or damage.
Do not charge battery in an area of extreme heat or
cold. It will work best at normal room temperature.
To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, do not
store outside or in vehicles.
Under extreme usage or temperature conditions,
battery leakage may occur. If liquid comes in
contact with your skin, wash immediately with soap
and water. 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.
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
sparks, burns, or a fire.
Always remove battery pack from your tool when you
are assembling parts, making adjustments, cleaning,
or when not in use. Removing battery pack will prevent
accidental starting that could cause serious personal
injury.
Always remove battery pack before storing the
device.
Always wear eye protection with side shields marked
to comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to do so could
result in objects being thrown into your eyes and other
possible serious injuries.
Keep battery pack dry, clean, and free from oil and
grease. Always use a clean cloth when cleaning.
Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based
products, or any solvents to clean battery pack.
Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and
use them to instruct others who may use this tool. If you
loan someone this tool, loan them these instructions.

See Figure 1.
Some tools feature a C3 indicator window. When the
315.PP2020 or 315.PP2030 Craftsman 19.2 V lithium-ion
battery pack is installed into the tool and has charge, the
tool’s C3 indicator light will glow.

If it glows yellow, it has a usable charge remaining but
will soon require recharging.
If it glows red, the battery requires recharging.
LITHIUM-ION BATTERY PACKS
Lithium-ion batteries deliver fade free power for their
entire run time. Lithium-ion tools will not gradually lose
power due to decreasing battery charge. Instead, power
from the battery pack will drop from full to zero once the
full charge has been drained from the battery. Once this
happens, recharging of the battery is required.
It is not necessary to drain the battery pack completely
before recharging.
BATTERY PROTECTION FEATURES
Lithium-ion battery packs are designed with features that
protect the lithium-ion cells and maximize battery life.
English
OPERATION
If the tool stops during use, release the trigger to reset
and resume operation. If the tool still does not work, the
battery needs to be recharged.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
The lithium-ion battery pack can be used in temperatures
down to 5° F (-15° C). Put the battery pack on a tool
and use the tool in a light duty application. After about
a minute, the pack will warm up and begin operating
normally.
CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
See Figure 1.
Battery packs are shipped in a low charge condition to
prevent possible problems. Therefore, you should charge
prior to first use. If the charger does not charge the battery
pack under normal circumstances, return both the battery
pack and charger to your nearest Authorized Service
Center for electrical check.
Charge the battery pack only with the recommended
charger.
Refer to charger operator’s manual for charging
instructions.
CHARGING A HOT BATTERY PACK
When using a tool continuously, the battery pack may
become hot. A hot battery pack may be placed directly
onto the charger port but charging will not begin until
the battery temperature cools to within acceptable
temperature range. When a hot battery pack is placed
on the charger, the charger may indicate the pack is
not ready to charge. Please refer to charger operator’s
manual. When the battery pack cools, the charger will
automatically begin charging.
