BATTERY PAckS
RIDGID nickel-cadmium battery packs are shipped in a low
charge condition to prevent possible problems. Therefore,
you should charge them until the light on the front of the
charger changes from flashing green to continuous green.
NOTE: Batteries will not reach full charge the first time they
are charged. Allow several cycles (operation followed by
recharging) for them to become fully charged. This is normal
for nickel-cadmium batteries.
TO chARgE
n Make sure the power supply is normal household voltage,
120 volts, Ac only, 60 hz.
n Connect the charger to a power supply.
n 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.
See Figure 2, page 9.
n The battery pack will become slightly warm to the touch
while charging. This is normal and does not indicate a
problem.
n Do not place the charger in an area of extreme heat or
cold. It will work best at normal room temperature.
n For average charge times, refer to the chart on the
following page.
n When the batteries become fully charged, unplug the
charger from the power supply and remove the battery
pack.
NOTE: The 9.6 V, 12 V, and 14.4 V battery packs will not slide all
the way down onto the charger port. Insert 9.6 V, 12 V, and 14.4 V
battery packs until they click into place. See Figure 3,
page 9.
Allow up to 5 seconds for the "charge" light to come on after
the battery pack is inserted.
