best performance. Oil for pneumatic fastening tools added

through the air line connection will lubricate the internal parts.

Do not use detergent oil or additives as these lubricants will

cause accelerated wear to the seals and bumpers in the

tool, resulting in poor tool performance and frequent tool

maintenance.

COLD WEATHER OPERATION

For cold weather operation, near and below freezing, the

moisture in the air line may freeze and prevent tool operation.

We recommend the use of air tool lubricant or permanent

antifreeze (ethylene glycol) as a cold weather lubricant.

CAUTION:

Do not store tools in a cold weather environment

to prevent frost or ice formation on the tools’

operating valves and mechanisms that could cause

tool failure.

NOTE: Some commercial air line drying liquids are harmful

to “O” rings and seals. Do not use these low temperature

air dryers without checking compatibility.

AIR SUPPLY PRESSURE AND VOLUME

Air volume is as important as air pressure. The air volume

supplied to the tool may be inadequate because of undersize

fittings and hoses, or from the effects of dirt and water in the

system. Restricted air flow will prevent the tool from receiving

an adequate volume of air, even though the pressure reading

is high. The results will be a slow operation or reduced

driving power. Before evaluating tool problems for these

symptoms, trace the air supply from the tool to the supply

source for restrictive connectors, low points containing

water and anything else that would prevent full volume flow

of air to the tool.

WARNING:

When servicing use only identical RIDGID

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.

WARNING:

Disconnect the tool from the air supply before

performing maintenance. Failure to do so could

result in serious personal injury.

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.

If needed, the jam-clearing slide can be used to release the

nail. To use the jam-clearing slide:

Disconnect the tool from the air supply.



Loosen the wing screw by turning it counterclockwise.

Remove the wing screw, taking care not to lose the small

concave washer.

Pull back the jam-clearing slide to remove jammed or bent

nails.

Push the jam-clearing slide back into place, aligning the

holes for the wing screw with the holes in the slide.

Replace the concave washer as shown.

Retighten the wing screw, making sure it is secure.

NOTE: The jam-clearing slide should always be in place

when operating this tool. When using the tool, periodically

confirm that the tensioning wing nut is securely fastened.
