* Sound measurements are measured in accordance with a standardized test per
Standard EN 62481-1.
- Sound emissions may vary due to your location and specific use of these
tools.
- Daily exposure levels for sound need to be evaluated for each application and
appropriate safety measures taken when needed. Evaluation of exposure lev-
els should consider the time a tool is switched OFF and not in use. This may
significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
Standard Equipment
Refer to the RIDGID catalog for details on equipment
supplied with specific machine catalog numbers.
NOTI E
Selection of appropriate materials and instal-
lation, joining and forming methods is the responsibility of
the system designer and/or installer. Selection of improp-
er materials and methods could cause system failure.
Stainless steel and other corrosion resistant materials
can be contaminated during installation, joining and form-
ing. This contamination could cause corrosion and pre-
mature failure. Careful evaluation of materials and meth-
ods for the specific service conditions, including chemical
and temperature, should be completed before any instal-
lation is attempted.
To reduce the risk of ferrous contamination of stainless
steel, make sure that the rollers are clean and debris
free. Thoroughly clean with a stainless steel brush.
Change the cutter wheel and reamer before use with
stainless steel material. Best practice is to dedicate a
cutter for stainless steel.
Assembly
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury during use, follow
these procedures for proper assembly. Switch should
be OFF and machine unplugged before assembly.
Bench Mounting
The machine can be mounted on a level, stable bench. To
mount the unit on a bench, unscrew the rubber feet at the
four corners of the machine base (See Figure 16) and use
M8 bolts to retain machine to the bench. Tighten securely.
