OPERATION
WARNING:
Cutting into electrical wiring can cause the blade,
the tool-free blade clamp, and the saw bar
assembly to become electrically live. Do not touch
metal parts when cutting into a wall; grasp only the
insulated surfaces on the tool. Make sure hidden
electrical wiring, water pipes, and mechanical
hazards are not in the blade path when cutting
into a wall.
METAL CUTTING
See Figure 8, page 10.
You may cut metals such as sheet steel, pipe, steel rods,
aluminum, brass, and copper with the saw (metal cutting
blade sold separately).
MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
When servicing use only identical RIDGID
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:
To avoid serious personal injury, always remove the
battery pack from the power handle or disconnect
the power handle from the power supply when
cleaning or performing any maintenance.

Observe the following tips when metal cutting:
Be careful not to twist or bend the saw blade.
Do not force the tool and use a slow speed setting.
Use cutting oil when cutting soft metals and steel.
Cutting oil keeps the blades cool, increases cutting
action, and prolongs blade life.
Never use gasoline since normal sparking of motor could
ignite fumes.
Clamp the workpiece firmly and cut close to the clamping
point to eliminate any vibration of the work. When cutting
conduit pipe or angle iron, clamp the workpiece in a vise
if possible and cut close to the vise. To cut thin sheet
material, "sandwich" the material between hardboard
or plywood and clamp the layers to eliminate vibration
and material tearing.
Always keep firm pressure on the shoe assembly to hold
it securely against the workpiece.
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.
