• Do not disassemble charger or operate the charger
if it had received a sharp blow, been dropped or
otherwise damaged in any way. Replace damaged
cord or plugs immediately. Incorrect reassembly or
damage may result in electric shock or fire.
• Do not recharge battery in damp or wet environ-
ment. Do not expose charger to rain or snow. If
battery case is cracked or otherwise damaged, do
not insert into charger. Battery short or fire may result.
• Charge battery cartridge in temperatures above
+40°F (4°C) and below +105°F (41°C). Store tool
and battery pack in locations where temperatures
do not go below 40°F (4°C) or will not exceed 120°F
(49°C). Allow battery pack to return to room tem-
perature before attempting to charge. Improper
care of batteries may result in battery leakage, electri-
cal shock or burns.
• Battery leakage may occur under extreme usage or
temperature conditions. Avoid contact with skin
and eyes. The battery liquid is caustic and could cause
chemical burns to tissues. If liquid comes in contact with
skin, wash quickly with soap and water, then with
lemon juice or vinegar. If the liquid contacts your eyes,
flush them with water for a minimum of 10 minutes and
seek medical attention.
• Place charger on flat non-flammable surfaces and
away from flammable materials when re-charging
battery pack. The charger and battery pack heat dur-
ing charging. Carpeting and other heat insulating
surfaces block proper air circulation which may cause
overheating of the charger and battery pack. If smoke
or melting of the case are observed unplug the charger
immediately and do not use the battery pack or charger.
• When batteries are not in tool or charger, keep
them away from metal objects. For example, to pro-
tect terminals from shorting DO NOT place batteries in
a tool box or pocket with nails, screws, keys, etc. Fire
or injury may result.
• Do not put batteries into fire or expose to high
heat. They may explode causing serious injury.

Description
The RIDGID Model K-39 (Figure 1), K-39 AF (Figure 2),
and K-39 Battery (Figure 3) are hand-held drain cleaners
designed to clean
rooms and utility rooms.
The K-39 electric powered tool is a double-insulated
design equipped with polarized plug. Double insulation
eliminates the need for the three-wire grounded power
cord and grounded supply system. This drain cleaner is
available in two styles:
• Slide-Action Chuck
• Slide-Action Chuck with Autofeed Assembly
The slide-action chuck grips the cable so that it can be
forced into the blockage as the drum continues to spin.
The autofeed unit automatically feeds and retrieves the
cable thereby eliminating the need for manual control.
The Model K-39B (Figure 3) battery powered version
eliminates the need for a power outlet or extension cord
at the point of application. It is offered with the slide-ac-
tion chuck and the autofeed assembly.
