5. With dry hands, insert a fully charged battery. Press
the ON/OFF button on the LED panel one time to turn
the press tool ON. The green, red and yellow LED on
the display panel should all blink one time on power
up, and then the green LED will remain on to indicate
that the tool is ready for use. For use in cold weather
(temperatures below 15°F (-10°C)), see Cold Weath -
er Operation Section . If any other conditions exist, use
the Diagnostic Codes information on Page 12 to
determine the next step and do not use the tool until
it is working properly. With your hands and fingers
away from the tool ram, test the operation of the
switch to confirm proper operation. When used with
an attachment, once the tool sees enough load it
will lock on to ensure that a complete press is made.
6. Once the operation has been checked, with dry
hands remove the battery.

RIDGID tool and attachment(s) for the application.
Using an incorrect attachment for an application can
