Therefore, no further lubrication is required. When servicing use only identical RIDGID replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause product damage. COLD WEATHER OPERATION For cold weather operation, near and below freezing, the moisture in the air line may freeze and prevent tool operation. We recommend the use of air tool lubricant or permanent antifreeze (ethylene glycol) as a cold weather lubricant. 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. CAUTION: Do not store tools in a cold weather environment to prevent frost or ice formation on the tools’ operating valves and mechanisms that could cause tool failure. WARNING: Disconnect the tool from the air supply before performing maintenance. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury. NOTE: Some commercial air line drying liquids are harmful to “O” rings and seals. Do not use these low temperature air dryers without checking compatibility. 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. �AIR SUPPLY-PRESSURE AND VOLUME Air volume is as important as air pressure. The air volume supplied to the tool may be inadequate because of undersize fittings and hoses, or from the effects of dirt and water in the system. Restricted air flow will prevent the tool from receiving an adequate volume of air, even though the pressure reading is high. The results will be a slow operation or reduced driving power. Before evaluating tool problems for these symptoms, trace the air supply from the tool to the supply source for restrictive connectors, low points containing water and anything else that would prevent full volume flow of air to the tool. 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. ACCESSORIES To order parts and maintenance kits, call 1-866-539-1710.
