300 Compact Pipe and Bolt Threading Machine
• Clear path to the electrical outlet that does not
contain any sources of heat or oil, sharp edges or
moving parts that may damage electrical cord.
• Dry place for machine and operator. Do not use
the machine while standing in water.
• Level ground
2. Clean up the work area prior to setting up any equip-
ment. Always wipe up any oil that may have splashed
or dripped from the machine to prevent slips and
falls.
3. If the workpiece extends more than four (4) feet be-
yond the Threading Machine, use one or more pipe
stands to prevent tipping and the oscillation of the
pipe.
4. If the workpiece extends beyond the Threading Ma-
chine, set-up guards or barricades to create a min-
imum of three (3) feet of clearance around the Thread-
ing Machine and workpiece. This "safety zone" pre-
vents others from accidentally contacting the machine
or workpiece and either causing the equipment to tip
or becoming entangled in the rotating parts.
5. If necessary, fill the reservoir with RIDGID Thread
Cutting Oil.
6. Make sure FOR/OFF/REV switch is in the OFF
position.
7. Position the foot switch so that the operator can
safely control the machine, tools and workpiece. It
should allow the operator to do the following:
• Stand facing the directional switch.
• Use the foot switch with his left foot.
• Have convenient access to the directional switch,
tools and chucks without reaching across the
machine.
Machine is designed for one person operation.
8. Plug the Threading Machine into the electrical outlet
making sure to position the power cord along the
clear path selected earlier. If the power cord does not
reach the outlet, use an extension cord in good con-
dition.
WARNING
To avoid electrical shock and electrical fires,
never use an extension cord that is damaged or
does not meet the following requirements:
The cord has a three-prong plug similar
to shown in Electrical Safety section.
The cord is rated as "W" or "W-A" if being
used outdoors.
8
The cord has sufficient wire thickness (14
AWG below 25'/12 AWG 25'-50'). If the wire
thickness is too small, the cord may over-
heat, melting the cord's insulation or caus-
ing nearby objects to ignite.
WARNING
all electrical connections dry and off the ground. Do
not touch plug with wet hands.
9. Check the Threading Machine to insure it is oper-
ating properly.
• Flip the directional switch to FOR (Forward). Press
and release the foot switch. Check that the Thread-
ing Machine rotates in a counterclockwise direction
as you are facing the front chuck. Have the Thread-
ing Machine serviced if it rotates in the wrong direc-
tion or if the foot switch does not control its stopping
or starting.
• Depress and hold the foot switch. Inspect the mov-
ing parts for misalignment, binding, odd noises or
any other unusual conditions that may affect the
safe and normal operation of the machine. If such
conditions are present, have the machine serviced.
• Flip the directional switch to REV (Reverse). Press
and release the foot switch. Check that that Thread-
ing Machine rotates in a clockwise direction as
you are facing the chuck.
• Release the foot switch and flip the directional
switch to OFF.
