WARNING Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

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.

• If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

• The text used in the General Power Tool Safety Warnings section of this manual is verbatim, as required, from the applicable UL/CSA 62841-1 standard. This section contains general safety practices for many different types of power tools. Not every precaution applies to every tool, and some do not apply to this tool.

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com- mon 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 mo - ment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

• 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 turn- ing 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- 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 RP 342-XL Press 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 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 damagedduring use and wear appropriate protective equipment, including eye protection.

Description The RIDGID

RP 342-XL Press Tool, when used with ap - propriate attachments, is designed to mechanically press fit- tings onto tubing to create a water-tight and permanent seal, such as for plumbing and heating applications. 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 tool has two configurations that are changed by rotating the tool sleeve. In “Standard” configuration, the tool can be used with RIDGID Standard Series Press Attach - ments. The “Extended” configuration allows use with com- mercially available Extended Series Press attachments or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explo- sion 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.

• Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the man- ufacturer or authorized service providers. Specific Safety Information WARNING This section contains important safety information that is specific to this tool. Read these precautions carefully before using the press tool to reduce the risk of electrical shock, fire, explosion or serious personal injury.

attachment or tool or between the attachment, work piece and other objects. Large forces are generated during product use that can break or throw parts and cause injury. Stand clear during use and wear appropriate protective equipment, including eye protection. Use proper tool, attachment and fitting combina- tions. Improper combinations can result in an in - complete connection, which increases the risk of leaks, equipment damage and injury. Follow set up and operating instructions to reduce the risk of injury from crushing and other causes and to prevent tool damage.

1. Confirm appropriate work area (See General Power

Tool Safety Warnings). Operate in a clear, level, sta ble, dry location. Do not use tool while standing in water.

2. Inspect the work to be done and determine the cor-

rect RIDGID tool and attachment for the application per their specifications. Using incorrect equipment for an application can cause injury, damage the tool and make incomplete connections.

3. Confirm all equipment has been inspected and set up

as directed in their instructions. Removing/Installing Attachment

1. Remove battery from tool.

2. Unlock and open the attachment mounting pin by

slightly depressing the knob (1) and turning slightly counter-clockwise (2). The pin is spring loaded and will retract, control the pin movement. See Figure 6A.

4. Insert appropriate attachment.

5. Fully close attachment mounting pin. Attachment

mounting pin must be fully closed to prevent tool damage during use.

6. Inspect the gap between attachment and sleeve (See

Fi gure 6B ). Do not use tool if gap is greater than 0.39" (10 mm). Excessive gap between the attachment and sleeve can allow access to the tool rollers during use. This increases the risk of crushing injuries. Do not use Standard attachments with tool in Extended configuration. RP 342-XL Press Tool WARNINGFigure 6A – Fully Open Attachment Mounting Pin Figure 6B – Fully Closed Attachment Mounting Pin Changing Tool Configuration (“Extended”/“Standard”) The RIDGID RP 342-XL Press Tool can be configured for use with RIDGID Standard or Extended Series attach- ments (See Specifications for more information). To con- vert between configurations:

1. Remove any attachment from tool

2. With dry hands, insert a fully charged battery into

tool. Depress ON/OFF button to turn tool ON.

3. From “Standard” to “Extended” Configurations– With

hands clear of the rollers, depress the run switch to move the rollers forward approximately

" (3 mm). Rotate the sleeve to align the “Extended” icon arrow with the housing arrow (Figure 7).

4. From “Extended” to “Standard” Configurations – With

hands clear of the rollers, depress the run switch to move the rollers forward till the roller housing is past the line on sleeve (see Figure 7B). Rotate the sleeve to align the “Stan dard” icon arrow with the housing arrow (Figure 7). Figure 7A – “Standard” Configuration Figure 7B – “Extended” Configuration In the “Extended” configuration, the slots of the sleeve will align with the openings in the housing to allow Extended Series attachments to mount to the tool. In the “Standard” configuration, the sleeve will cover part of the housing openings and prevent the rollers from retracting further than necessary. This will reduce the tool cycle time in the “Standard” configuration. Do not use Standard attach- ments with tool in “Extended” configuration. Preparing Connection These instructions are generalized practices for several types of press tool attachments. Always follow the specific instructions for the press tool attachment being used and the fitting manufacturers’ specific instal- lation instructions to reduce the risk of improper press connections and extensive property damage.

1. Prepare the connection according to the fitting man-

ufacturer’s instructions.

2. With dry hands, insert a fully charged battery into

tool. Depress ON/OFF button one time to turn tool ON. The green light will turn on. See Figure 5 – Tool Status Lights for any other light. Tool will automatically turn OFF if left unused for ten (10) minutes. Pressing A Fitting With Typical Scissor Jaws

1. Squeeze jaw arms to open jaws.

2. Place open jaws around fitting (Figure 8). Properly

align jaw press profile with contour of the fitting as specified in Fitting Manufacturer’s Installation Instruc - tions. Release jaw arms to close jaws around fitting. Do not hang jaw set from fitting. Tool could unex- pectedly drop and cause serious injury or death. Figure 8 – Placing Jaws Around Fiiting Figure 9 – Jaws Appropriately Placed

3. Confirm jaw is appropriately placed and square to fit-

ting (Figure 9). Keep fingers and hands away from the jaws to avoid crushing injuries in jaws or between jaws and surroundings. Depress the run switch (Figure 1). Once the tool cycle begins and the rollers contact the jaw arms, the tool will lock-on and automatically complete the cycle. Releasing the switch will not stop the tool once it has locked on. This assures consistent, repeatable press connection integrity. If tool must be removed before a connection is com- pleted, depress the pressure release button (Figure 1). Any time release button is depressed, press is NOT complete and the connection must be pressed again to ensure completion. If the tool malfunctions during operation, use this procedure. In case of emer- gency, release run switch and depress pressure release button.

4. Release the run switch.

5. Squeeze jaw arms to open jaws.

6. Remove jaw from fitting. Avoid sharp edges that may

have formed on fitting during pressing operation.

7. When operation is complete, depress ON/OFF button

one time to turn tool OFF. Remove battery from tool. Pressing A Fitting With Typical Actuator And Press Ring Set

1. Open ring and place around fitting. Properly align ring

press profile with contour of the fitting as specified in Fitting Manufacturer’s Installation Instructions. Release ring to close around fitting.

2. Confirm appropriate actuator is installed in tool.

Squeeze actuator arms to open the actuator tips. Align actuator tips with ring. Release actuator arms and fully engage actuator into ring (Figure 11). Mis - aligning actuator to ring can damage the ring or actu- ator during pressing. Do not hang tool and actuator from press ring. Tool could unexpectedly drop and cause serious injury or death.

3. Confirm ring is appropriately placed and square to fit-

ting. Keep fingers and hands away from the actuator and ring to avoid crushing injuries in attachment or between attachment and surroundings. Depress the run switch. Once the tool cycle begins and the rollers contact the jaw arms, the tool will lock-on and automatically complete the cycle. Releasing the switch will not stop the tool once it has locked on. This assures consistent, repeatable press connection integrity.

4. If tool must be removed before a connection is com-

pleted, depress the pressure release button (Figure 1). Any time release button is depressed, press is NOT complete and the connection must be pressed again to ensure completion. If the tool malfunctions during operation, use this procedure. In case of emer- gency, release run switch and depress release button.999-999-207.10_REV. A
