Battery Charger Safety
• Charge only the RIDGID rechargeable
battery listed in the Accessories Sec-
tion with the RIDGID Battery Char-
ger. Other types of batteries may burst
causing personal injury and property
damage.
• Do not probe battery charger with
conductive objects. Shorting of bat-
tery terminals may cause sparks, burns
or electrical shock.
• Do not insert battery into charger if
charger has been dropped or dam-
aged in any way. A damaged charger
increases the risk of electrical shock.
• Charge battery in temperatures above
32°F (0°C) and below 122°F (50°C).
Store charger in temperatures above -4°F
(-20°C) and below 104°F (40°C). Storage
for a long time at temperatures above
104°F (40°C) can reduce the capacity of
the battery. Proper care will prevent se-
rious damage to the battery. Improper

tion.
care of the battery may result in battery
leakage, electrical shock and burns.
• Use an appropriate power source.
Do not attempt to use a step-up trans-
former or an engine generator, doing
so may cause damage to the charger
resulting in electrical shock, fire or
burns.
• Do not allow anything to cover the
charg er while in use. Proper ventilation
is required for correct operation of the
charger. Allow a minimum of 4" (10 cm) of
clearance around the charger for proper
ventilation.
• Unplug the charger when not in use.
This reduces the risk of injury to chil-
dren and untrained persons.
• Unplug the charger from outlet be-
fore attempting any maintenance or
cleaning. Reduces the risk of electrical
shock.
• Do not charge battery in damp, wet
or explosive environment. Do not
expose to rain, snow or dirt. Contami-
nants and moisture increase the risk of
electrical shock.
• Do not open the charger housing.
Have repairs performed only at autho-
rized locations.
