Cleaning
2. Pivot pins on jaws should be cleaned and lubricated
at least once a year with a general purpose "wheel
bearing" type grease. A light coating on the pins and
bores is sufficient.
3. Jaws and sideplates should be visually inspected
daily for obvious cracks or other signs of wear or
damage. If cracks are visible in any parts, they should
be discarded and replaced.
WARNING
A jaw component that has been welded, ground,
drilled or modified in any manner can shatter during
pressing, resulting in sharp flying objects, severe
injury or death. Discard and replace damaged jaws,
press rings or ring actuators.
4. Check return springs in press jaws with each use.
Jaws should open and close freely with only moder-
ate finger effort required.
Required Maintenance at RIDGID
Authorized Service Center
After 20,000 cycles, the tool will show a blinking yellow
LED on the display panel as long as the tool is turned on
to indicate that it is time for maintenance and recalibration.
The tool will not run if it is not maintained within 2,000
more cycles after the yellow blinking LED begins. The dis-
play panel will show a solid yellow LED. This mandatory
maintenance is necessary to assure that the tool remains
in good working condition and provides consistent press
joints.
