USER MANUAL CCG-1801M RYOBI

It is essential that you read the instructions in this manual before mounting and operating this machine.

WARNING Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term "power tool" in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool.

Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invites accidents. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodifed plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of cord suitable of outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dusk mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enable better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust related hazards.

Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. Do not use the power tool if the switch does no turn it on and off. Any power tool that can not be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

SPECIFICATIONS Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc. in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from intended could result in a hazardous situation.

CCG-1801M 18 V BPP-1817M / BPP-181M BC-1815S / BC-1800

APPLICATIONS Have your power tool serviced by an authorised service centre using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

You may use this tool for the following purposes: ■

Sealing cracks to keep your home's conditioned air inside while keeping unconditioned air outside, increasing your home's energy efficiency. Filling holes and cracks before painting.

Creating a moisture barrier around areas that could be damaged by water. Sealing cracks to keep insects from crawling inside your home. Applying adhesive.

TO INSTALL BATTERY PACK (NOT INCLUDED) (Fig. 2) ■ ■ ■

Lock the switch trigger by sliding the switch lock up. Place the battery pack on the tool. Make sure the latches on each side of the battery pack snap into place and the battery pack is secured on the tool before beginning operation.

CAUTION When placing battery pack in the tool, be sure raised rib on battery pack aligns with the bottom of the drill and latches into place properly. Improper installation of the battery pack can cause damage to internal components.

ELECTRONIC OVERLOAD PROTECTION The caulk gun is protected by an electronic overload protection feature. If too much pressure is exerted on the tube, the motor will shut down. This helps to prevent damage to the tool and the caulk tube. If the motor shuts off, make sure that:

TO REMOVE BATTERY PACK (NOT INCLUDED) (Fig. 2) ■ ■ ■

Lock the switch trigger by sliding the switch lock up. Depress the latches on the side of battery pack. Remove the battery pack from the tool.

STARTING/STOPPING THE CAULK GUN (Fig. 3)

To turn the caulk gun ON, depress the switch trigger. To turn the caulk gun OFF, release the switch trigger.

LOCKING THE SWITCH TRIGGER (Fig. 3.)

WARNING Battery tools are always in operating condition. Therefore, switch should always be locked when not in use or carrying at your side.

The switch trigger of the caulk gun can be locked off using the slide switch located below the switch trigger. ■

To lock the switch trigger, slide the switch lock up. This will prevent the caulk gun switch trigger from being depressed. To unlock the switch trigger, slide the switch down. This will allow the caulk gun switch trigger to be depressed.

LOADING CAULK (NOT INCLUDED) (Fig. 4 - 5) ■

Nozzle tip is cut Inner seal in the caulk tube is broken Hardened material is removed from the nozzle Caulk tube is not damaged or frozen Plunger rod is free of caulk/adhesive materials

Release the trigger and wait for 3 to 5 seconds to allow the electronics to reset. If the motor again shuts off, move the variable speed selector to the middle position and press the trigger again. If the motor continues to shut off, try another tube of material or take the tool to an authorized service center.

Before attempting to start the caulk gun, be sure the switch lock is in the unlocked position. ■

Using a utility knife, cut off the tip of the spout on a standard 10 oz. tube of caulk. Cut the tip at a 45° angle. Remove as little as possible, taking into consideration the size of the "bead" of caulk you need. Check for a second inner seal at the base of the spout. If found, insert the puncture tool inside the spout to break the seal before using. If using a partially filled tube, use the puncture tool to remove any hardened material from the tip. Note: An inner seal is usually found only in cardboard caulk tubes. While holding the caulk gun steady with one hand, pull the handle of the plunger rod away from the caulk gun. Continue pulling until plunger base reaches the back of the carriage frame. Load the caulk tube into the carriage frame, making sure it is well seated at both ends.

Lock the switch trigger by sliding the switch lock up.

Prepare the surface to be caulked by removing any dust, dirt, or remnants of old caulking. Make sure the area to be caulked is clean and dry. Set the speed of the caulk gun to match your application needs, using just enough caulk to do the job. Experiment in an out-of-the-way area to find the best speed to use to deliver the caulk bead you want.

DK N FIN GR H CZ RUS RO PL SLO HR TR English WARNING To avoid serious personal injury, always remove the battery pack from the tool when cleaning or performing any maintenance.

Hold the gun at a slight angle. If filling a crack, insert the spout into the crack, if possible; otherwise, run the caulk gun along the surface. Squeeze the trigger on the caulk gun, allowing the caulk to extrude from the tube tip. Note: If the bead of caulk is too narrow, re-cut the nozzle to provide a larger opening. However, it is better to apply a thin bead of caulk and add a little more if necessary than to apply too much and attempt to remove the excess. Carefully move the caulk gun at an even pace along the gap to be filled as you continue to depress the switch trigger. Make sure the caulk comes in full contact with both application surfaces. If necessary, use your finger to gently press the caulk into a corner or crack. Note: The best fill is usually achieved by pushing the caulk out into the gap in a forward motion. However, in some cases (particularly where the side materials are rough or uneven), a pulling motion may work better as the cartridge will be less likely to get snagged along the joint. The motor will shut off automatically when a caulk tube becomes empty. Pull the plunger rod back and replace the caulk tube as necessary. To end the caulk bead, release the switch trigger. Draw a moistened finger or other "smoothing tool"along the caulk bead after applying. This will help the caulk adhere to the application surfaces and will create a clean, finished appearance. Use a damp towel or rag to clean off any excess caulk.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc. WARNING Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or destroy plastic which may result in serious personal injury. To work properly, the plunger rod of the tool must remain clean and free of all caulk and adhesive material. If material does get on the plunger rod mechanism, clean the material off according to the directions of the caulk or adhesive manufacturer. When the tool is shut off by the electronic overload protection system, always wait for 3 to 5 seconds before depressing the trigger for restart. Frequently depressing and releasing the trigger under these circumstances may cause interior damage to the caulk gun. Only the parts shown on the parts list are intended to be repaired or replaced by the customer. All other parts should be replaced at an Authorized Service Center.

MAINTENANCE WARNING When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause product damage. WARNING Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields during power tool operation or when blowing dust. If operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
