Operating the RP 100-B and RP 300-B Press Fit tools.
Fitting of the jaws (see Fig.1)
• Pull out the lock pin (Fig.1, ref. 7).
• Insert the correct jaw (Fig.1, ref. 8) (size and specifi cation of the fi tting)
into the jaw-mounting opening.
Note:- Use only RP 100-B RIDGID jaws with the RP 100-B
• Insert the lock pin into the hole situated in the jaw side plate, and fi rmly
close the lock pin by pushing it back into the original position (Fig.2).
Performing the Press Fit action
• Check that the correct jaws have been fi tted for the joint that is going to
be pressed.
• Check that a charged battery is correctly inserted into the tool and place
the jaws over the fi tting.
• Press the ON switch (Fig.1, ref. 1) to switch on the electronic controls.
A warning beep (300-B only) advises that the power is on and the green,
red and orange LED's will light momentarily leaving only the green LED
to indicate the tool is ready to be operated.
• Press the start trigger (Fig.1, ref. 3) to initiate the automatic press cycle.
Important: Keep fi ngers and hands away from jaws during pressing
cycle!
• Wait until the complete pressing cycle has been completed.
• The tool features an automatic pressing facility. This ensures a full pres-
sing cycle at all times. For safety reasons, the automatic pressing facility
only engages after the electronic control has completed system checks.
• If the pressing cycle was not completed correctly, an audible warning will
sound (300-B only) and the red LED will blink to inform the operator of
the error. See TROUBLESHOOTING.
