tact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush

Press Tool Safety

• Keep your fingers and hands away from
4
pressing attachments during press cy -
cle. Your fingers or hands can be crushed,
fractured or amputated if they become
caught between the attachment or between
these components and any other object.
• Never attempt to repair damaged press-
ing attachments (jaws, press ring, actu-
ator, etc.). Discard the entire damaged
attachment. An attachment that has been
welded, ground, drilled or modified in any
manner can shatter during pressing re-
sulting in serious injury. Failure to replace
the entire pressing attachment may result in
component failure and serious injury.
• Large forces are generated during prod-
uct use that can break or throw parts
and cause injury. Stand clear during use
and wear appropriate protective equip-
ment, including eye protection.
• Only use RIDGID Press Tools with ap-
propriate RIDGID pressing attachments
(jaws, press ring, actuator, etc.). Other
uses or modifying the Press Tools for other
applications may damage the press tool,
damage the attachments and/or cause per-
sonal injury.
• Use proper tool, attachment and fitting
combinations. Improper combinations
can result in an incomplete joint, which in-
crease the risk of leaks, equipment dam-
age and injury.
• Before operating RIDGID
read and understand:
– This operator's manual,
– The attachment instructions,
– The battery/charger manual,
– The fitting manufacturer's installation in-
structions,
