Ryobi ZRP212, P212G General Maintenance, Battery Pack Preparation for Recycling

MAINTENANCE

WARNING:

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

WARNING:

Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1 during maintenance. 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.

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.

Tool STORAGE

Always remove battery pack from tool before storing the tool.

BATTERY PACK PREPARATION FOR RECYCLING

WARNING:

Upon removal, cover the battery pack’s terminals with heavy-duty adhesive tape. Do not attempt to destroy or disassemble battery pack or remove any of its components. Lithium-ion and nickel-cadmium batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly. Also, never touch both terminals with metal objects and/or body parts as short circuit may result. Keep away from children. Failure to comply with these warnings could result in fire and/or serious injury.

chuck removal

See Figures 17 - 19, page 15.

The chuck may be removed and replaced by a new one.

Remove the battery pack.

Lock the switch trigger by placing the direction of rotation selector in center position.

Insert a 5/16 in. or larger hex key into the chuck of the drill and tighten the chuck jaws securely.

Tap the hex key sharply with a mallet in a clockwise direction. This will loosen the screw in the chuck for easy removal.

Open the chuck jaws and remove the hex key. Using a screwdriver, remove the chuck screw by turning it in a clockwise direction.

Note:  The chuck screw has left hand threads.

Insert the hex key into the chuck and tighten the chuck jaws securely. Tap sharply with a mallet in a counterclockwise direction. This will loosen the chuck on the spindle. It can now be unscrewed by hand.

TO RETIGHTEN A LOOSE CHUCK

The chuck may become loose on the spindle and develop a wobble. Also, the chuck screw may become loose, causing the chuck jaws to bind and prevent them from closing.

To tighten:

Remove the battery pack.

Lock the switch trigger by placing the direction of rotation selector in the center position.

Open the chuck jaws.

Insert the hex key into the chuck and tighten the chuck jaws securely. Tap the hex key sharply with a mallet in a clockwise direction. This will tighten the chuck on the spindle.

Open the chuck jaws and remove the hex key.

Tighten the chuck screw.
