MAINTENANCE

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.

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.

Electric tools used on fiberglass material, wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster are subject to accelerated wear and possible premature failure because the fiberglass chips and grindings are highly abrasive to bearings, brushes, commutators, etc. Consequently, we do not recommend using this tool for extended work on these types of materials. However, if you do work with any of these materials, it is extremely important to clean the tool using compressed air.

LUBRICATION

All of the bearings in this product are lubricated with a sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrication is required.

POWER Supply cord Replacement

If replacement of the power supply cord is necessary, this has to be done by the manufacturer or his agent in order to avoid a safety hazard.

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.
