SAFETY RULES FOR CHARGER
WARNING!
READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal
injury.
Before using charger, read all instructions and caution-
ary markings in this manual, on charger, battery, and
product using battery to prevent misuse of the products
and possible injury or damage.
WARNING:
Charge only one lithium-ion rechargeable battery at
a time. Other types of batteries may burst, causing
personal injury or damage. For compatible battery
packs see tool/appliance/battery pack/charger
correlation supplement 988000-302.
Do not use charger outdoors or expose to wet or damp
conditions. Water entering charger will increase the risk
of electric shock.
Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by the
battery charger manufacturer may result in a risk of
fire, electric shock, or injury to persons. Following this
rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious
personal injury.
Do not abuse cord or charger. Never use the cord to
carry the charger. Do not pull the charger cord rather than
the plug when disconnecting from receptacle. Damage
to the cord or charger could occur and create an electric
shock hazard. If cord or charger is damaged, have the
charger replaced by an authorized serviceman.
Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped
on, tripped over, come in contact with sharp edges
or moving parts or otherwise subjected to damage or
stress. This will reduce the risk of accidental falls, which
could cause injury, and damage to the cord, which could
result in electric shock.
Keep cord and charger from heat to prevent damage
to housing or internal parts.
Do not let gasoline, oils, petroleum-based products,
etc. come in contact with plastic parts. They contain
chemicals that can damage, weaken, or destroy
plastic.
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 resulting in possible serious injury.
An extension cord should not be used unless
absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension cord
could result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If extension
cord must be used, make sure:
a. That pins on plug of extension cord are the same
number, size and shape as those of plug on charger.
b. That extension cord is properly wired and in
good electrical condition; and
c. That wire size is large enough for AC ampere
rating of charger as specified below:
Cord Length (Feet) 25' 50' 100'
Cord Size (AWG) 16 16 16
NOTE: AWG = American Wire Gauge
Do not operate charger with a damaged cord or plug,
which could cause shorting and electric shock. If damaged,
have the charger replaced by an authorized serviceman.
Do not operate charger if it has received a sharp blow,
been dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way.
Take it to an authorized serviceman for electrical check
to determine if the charger is in good working order.
Do not disassemble charger. Take it to an authorized
serviceman when service or repair is required. Incorrect
reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
Unplug charger from outlet before attempting any
maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of electric
shock.
Disconnect charger from the power supply when
not in use. This will reduce the risk of electric shock or
damage to the charger if metal items should fall into the
opening. It also will help prevent damage to the charger
during a power surge.
Risk of electric shock. Do not touch uninsulated portion
of output connector or uninsulated battery terminal.
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 also
to prevent misuse of the product and possible injury.

from both outlets combined, unplug the charger, remove
any battery packs installed, and have the charger replaced
by authorized serviceman.
USING THE USB CHARGING PORTS
See Figure 1, page 7.
The USB charging ports provide charging power of 5 Volts
DC at up to 2.1 amps for your cell phone, MP3 player, tablet,
or other USB devices. Consult the owner’s manual for your
device for specific charging requirements.
Connect one end of a USB cable (not provided) to your
device and the other end to a USB charging port on the
charger to begin charging your device.
NOTICE:
If at any point during the charging process none
of the LEDs are lit, remove the battery pack from
the charger to avoid damaging the product. DO
NOT insert another battery. Return the charger and
battery to your nearest authorized service center
for service or replacement.
NOTICE:
Charge in a well-ventilated area. Do not block
charger vents. Keep them clear to allow proper
ventilation.
APPLICATIONS
You may use this product for the following purpose:
Charging compatible RIDGID® battery packs and USB-
capable devices
DIAGNOSTIC FEEDBACK
See Figure 1, page 7.
LEDs provide feedback to indicate whether the battery pack
is charging, fully charged, or defective.
KEY HOLE HANGER
See Figure 1, page 7.
To mount the charger, only use the key hole hanging feature.
Screws should be installed so that the center distance is 3 in.
USING THE PASS-THROUGH AC OUTLETS
See Figure 1, page 7.
The charger features two pass-through AC outlets, allowing
you to connect up to two additional devices to the same AC
outlet the charger is using.
NOTE: A combined total of 10 amps is available through the
use of these outlets. If the power drawn through the passthrough outlets exceeds 10 amps, the circuit breaker on the
charger will trip. Reduce the amount of power being used
by unplugging one of the devices or plugging in a different
device, then press the circuit breaker to reset. If the breaker
continues to trip when less than 10 amps are being pulled
NOTICE:
Attempting to charge devices rated more than
2.1 amps could damage the USB charging ports
and/or the charger.
CHARGING BATTERIES
See Figure 2, page 7.
Battery packs are shipped in a low charge condition to
prevent possible problems. Therefore, you should charge
them before first use. If the charger does not charge your
battery pack under normal circumstances, return both the
battery pack and charger to your nearest repair center for
electrical check.
Charge time is dependent upon the type of battery pack.
NOTE: Charger charges batteries one at a time; charger does
NOT charge multiple batteries simultaneously.
Make sure the power supply is normal household voltage,
120 volts, AC only, 60 Hz.
Connect the charger to a power supply.
Attach the battery pack to the charger by aligning the
raised ribs on the battery pack with the grooves in the
charger, then slide the battery pack onto the charger.
Press down on the battery pack to be sure contacts on
the battery pack engage properly with contacts in the
charger.
NOTE: The 9.6 V, 12 V, and 14.4 V battery packs will not
slide all the way down onto the charger port.
Do not place the charger in an area of extreme heat or
cold. It will work best at normal room temperature.
The battery pack may become slightly warm to the touch
while charging. This is normal and does not indicate a
problem.
After charging is complete, the green LEDs will remain
on while the charger is in Maintenance Mode.
After completing Maintenance Mode, the green LEDs
will begin fading on/off continuously. This indicates the
battery is fully charged and the charger is in Energy Save
Mode.
Charger will periodically wake from Energy Save Mode to
ensure the battery pack remains in a fully charged state.

OPERATION
To remove the battery pack from the charger, pull up on
the battery pack.
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 orange
and green LEDs will be on. When the battery pack cools, the
charger will automatically begin charging.
