General Maintenance; Lubrication - Ridgid R350Mpf Manuel D'utilisation

OPERATION
WARNING:
The tool's driving mechanism may cycle when the
tool is first connected to the air supply. Always
connect the tool to the air supply before loading
nails to prevent injury from unintended cycling.
Always make sure the nosepiece is empty at the
beginning of each work session, before connecting
to an air supply.
„ Connect the tool to the air supply.
„ With the nose of the tool pointed away from you, feed
a nail into the nosepiece. Be sure the nails are pointed
downward and at the angle shown.
„ Do not hold the tip or head of the nail when feeding into
the nosepiece.
WARNING:
Keep the tool pointed away from yourself and oth-
ers when loading nails. Failure to do so could result
in possible serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Never load nails with the nosepiece depressed.
Doing so could result in possible serious personal
injury.
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. Failure to do
so could result in objects being thrown into your
eyes resulting in possible serious injury.
WARNING:
Disconnect the tool from the air supply before
performing maintenance. Failure to do so could
result in serious personal injury.
SETTING THE AIR PRESSURE
The amount of air pressure required will depend on the size
of the nail and the workpiece material.
Begin testing the depth of drive by driving a test nail into
the same type of workpiece material used for the actual job.
Drive a test nail with the air pressure set at 70-120 psi. Raise
or lower the air pressure to find the lowest setting that will
perform the job with consistent results.
DRIVING NAILS
The magnetic nail guide holds nails securely in place while
driving nails into the workpiece.
„ Place tip of the nail against the workpiece.
„ Push the tool firmly with your palm. Keep the nail in line
with the nosepiece as the nail is driven.
„ Remove the tool from the nail when complete.
WARNING:
Never hold the nail with your hand or fingers while
driving the nail. Doing so could result in possible
serious personal injury.

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.

LUBRICATION

Frequent, but not excessive, lubrication is required for
best performance. Oil for pneumatic fastening tools added
through the air line connection will lubricate the internal parts.
Do not use detergent oil or additives as these lubricants will
cause accelerated wear to the seals and bumpers in the
tool, resulting in poor tool performance and frequent tool
maintenance.
