OPERATION

TO ADJUST DEPTH AND WIDTH OF RABBET CUT

Loosen the retaining knob and adjust the edge guide to the desired width. Retighten the retaining knob securely.

The depth of the rabbet is determined by the depth of the cut, and the number of passes made along the workpiece. The maximum depth of the rabbet cut is 8 mm (5/16 in.) and has to be cut in 2 mm (5/64 in.) passes, or less, to get the desired depth. See Figure 14.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING:

When servicing use only identical Ryobi replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause product damage.

GENERAL

All parts represent an important part of the double insu- lation system and should be serviced only at an autho- rized service center.

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, carbon dust, etc.

WARNING:

Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc. come in contact with plastic parts. They contain chemicals that can damage, weaken or destroy plastic.

It has been found that electric tools are subject to accel- erated wear and possible premature failure when they are used on fiberglass boats, sports cars, wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster. The chips and grindings from these materials are highly abrasive to electric tool parts, such as bearings, brushes, commu- tators, etc. Consequently, it is not recommended that this tool be used for extended work on any fiberglass material, wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster. During any use on these materials, it is extremely im- portant that the tool is cleaned frequently by blowing with an air jet.

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.
