Crimp Tool Safety
Keep your fingers and hands away from
the jaws during the crimping cycle. Your
fingers or hands can be crushed, fractured
or amputated if they become caught be-
tween the dies or between these compo-
nents and any other object.
Large forces are generated during prod-
uct use that can break or throw parts
and cause injury. Stay clear of the jaws
during use and wear appropriate protective
equipment, including eye protection.
Never attempt to repair damaged jaws
or dies. Jaws or dies that have been
welded, ground, drilled or modified in
any manner can break during use re-
sulting in serious injury. Discard dam-
aged dies.
Do not operate the tool without correct
RIDGID dies properly installed in the
jaws. This can damage the tool and/or
cause serious personal injury.
Use proper tool, die and fitting combina-
tions. Improper combinations can result
in an incomplete or improper crimp, which
increases the risk of leaks, equipment dam-
age and injury.
Before operating the RIDGID PEX-One
Crimp Tool, read and understand:
This operator’s manual,
The battery/charger manual,
The fitting manufacturer’s installation in-
structions,
The instructions for any other equipment
used with this tool,
Failure to follow all instructions and warn-
ings may result in property damage and/or
serious injury.
er battery packs may create a risk of injury
and fire.
When a battery pack is not in use, keep
it away from other metal objects, like
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or
other small metal objects that can make
a connection from one terminal to an-
other. Shorting the battery terminals to-
gether may cause burns or a fire.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may
be ejected from the battery; avoid con-
tact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush
with water. If liquid contacts eyes, addition-
ally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from
the battery may cause irritation or burns.
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is
damaged or modified. Damaged or modi -
fied batteries may exhibit unpredictable be-
havior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of in-
jury.
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to
fire or excessive temperature. Exposure
to fire or temperature above 265 °F (130 °C)
may cause explosion.
Follow all charging instructions and do
not charge the battery pack or tool out-
side the temperature range specified in
the instructions. Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside the specified range
may damage the battery and increase the
risk of fire.
Service

i fied repair person using on ly identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
