SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS

FOR FUTURE REFERENCE! The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool. Work Area Safety

  • Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
  • Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo- spheres, such as in the presence of flam mable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
  • Keep children and by-standers away while oper- ating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. Electrical Safety
  • Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adap - ter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Un modified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
  • Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded sur- faces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrig- erators. There is an increased risk of electrical shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
  • Do not expose power tools to rain or wet condi- tions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electrical 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 a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of elec- tric shock.

  • Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the OFF-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing 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 bal- ance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
  • Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewel ry. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, 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 dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
  • Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second. Power Tool Use And Care
  • Do not force 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 power tool if the switch does not turn it ON and OFF. Any power tool that cannot be con- RP 350/RP 351 Press Tools trolled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
  • Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing acces- sories, or storing 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 pow - er tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
  • Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s op er ation. 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 main- tained 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, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations dif- ferent from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
  • Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations. Battery Tool Use And Care
  • Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.
  • Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
  • When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
  • Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact acciden - tally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts• Only use RIDGID

Press Tools with appropriate RIDGID or RIDGID approved Pressing attachments (jaws, press rings, actuators, etc.). Other uses or modifying the Press Tools for other applications may damage the press tool, damage the attachments and/or cause personal injury.

RP 350 and RP 351 Press Tools, when used with ap propriate attachments, are designed to mechani- cally press fittings onto tubing to create a water-tight and per- manent seal, such as for plumbing, heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration applications. Attachments are also available for other uses. When the run switch on the press tool is depressed, an internal electric motor powers a hydraulic pump which sends fluid into the cylinder of the tool, moving the ram for- ward and applying force to the attachment, pressing the fit- ting. The press cycle takes approximately 4 seconds. Once the cycle begins to deform a fitting, it will automat- ically continue until completion, even if the run switch is released. The tool includes a second operating mode (“Control Mode”) that can be turned on using the RIDGID Link App. Control Mode allows the fitting to be engaged prior to eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

  • Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
  • Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temper- ature above 265 °F (130 °C) may cause explosion.
  • Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging im - properly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire. Service
  • Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained. Specific Safety Information WARNING This section contains important safety information that is specific to this tool. Read these precautions carefully before using the press tools to reduce the risk of electrical shock, or other serious injury.
