If the LED status repeats a second time, try charging a different battery. • If a different battery charges normally, dispose of the defective pack (see Maintenance section). • If a different battery also indicates “Defective,” the charger may be defective. THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS ARE FOR RIDGID NICKEL-CADMIUM BATTERY PACKS AND CHARGERS. Battery packs for this tool are shipped in a low charge condition to prevent possible problems. Therefore, you should charge the pack 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 . Charge the battery pack only with the charger provided. . Make sure the power supply is normal household voltage, 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only. • 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. See Figure 5. • The battery pack will become slightly warm to the touch while charging. This is normal and does not indicate a problem. • Do not place the charger in an area of extreme heat or cold. It will work best at normal room temperature. • For average charge times, refer to the chart on the following page. • When the batteries become fully charged, unplug the charger from the power supply and remove the battery pack. CHARGING A HOT BATTERY PACK When using the tool continuously, the batteries in the battery pack will become hot. You should let a hot battery pack cool down for approximately 30 minutes before attempting to recharge. When the battery pack becomes discharged and is hot, the green LED will be off and the red LED will begin flashing. When the battery pack cools down to approximately 104°F (40°C), the charger will automatically begin fast charge mode. CHARGING A COOL BATTERY PACK If the battery pack is below normal temperature range, the red LED will begin flashing and the green LED will be off. When the battery warms to a temperature of more than 41°F (5°C), the charger will automatically begin fast charge mode. NOTE: Refer to CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK for normal recharging of batteries. 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. For the location of your nearest repair center, please call 1-866-539-1710. 12 13 OPERATION LED FUNCTION OF RIDGID NICKEL-CADMIUM CHARGERS See Figure 5.
