Safety
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury, read
these precautions carefully before using
the battery charger or battery.
Battery Charge Safety
• Charge only the RIDGID rechargeable
battery listed in the Accessories Sec-
tion with the RIDGID Battery Charger
(Catalog Number 30758). Other types of
batteries may burst causing personal injury
and property damage.
• Do not probe battery charger with con-
ductive objects. Shorting of battery termi-
nals may cause sparks, burns or electrical
shock.
• Do not insert battery into charger if
charger has been dropped or damaged
in any way. A damaged charger increases
the risk of electrical shock.
• Charge battery in temperatures above
41 degrees F ( 5 degrees C) and below
113 degrees F (45 degrees C). Store
charger and battery pack in temperatures
above -40°F (-40°C) and below 104°F
(40°C). Storage for a long time at tem-
peratures above 104F can reduce the ca-
pacity of the battery. Proper care will pre-
vent serous damage to the battery.
Improper care of the battery may result
battery leakage, electrical shock and burns

• Use an appropriate power source. Do
not attempts to use a step-up transformer
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
charger while in use. Proper ventilation is
required for correct operation of the char-
ger. Allow a minimum of 4" (10 cm) of
clearance around the charger for proper
ventilation.
• Unplug the charger when not in use.
Reduces the risk of injury to children and
untrained persons.
• Unplug the charger from outlet before
attempting any maintenance or clean-
ing. Reduces the risk of electrical shock.
• Do not charge battery pack in damp,
wet or explosive environment. Do not
expose to rain, snow or dirt. Contaminants
and moisture increase the risk of electrical
shock.
• Do not open the charger housing. Have
repairs performed only at authorized lo-
cations.
• Do not carry charger by power cord.
Reduces the risk of electrical shock.
Battery Safety
• Properly dispose of the battery. Expo-
sure to high temperatures can cause the
battery to explode, so do not dispose of in
a fire. Place tape over the terminals to
prevent direct contact with other objects.
Some countries have regulations concern-
ing battery disposal. Please follow all appli-
cable regulations.
