General Safety Information

WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

Work Area Safety

Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.

Do not operate tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Keep floors dry and free of slippery materials such as oil. Slippery floors invite accidents.

Guard or barricade the area when work piece extends beyond machine. A guard or barricade that provides a minimum of three (3) feet clearance around the work piece will reduce the risk of entanglement.

Electrical Safety

Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet, properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.

Cover of grounded outlet box

Grounding Prong

Grounding Prong

Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces. There is an increased risk of electrical shock if your body is grounded.

Don’t expose electrical tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electrical shock.

Do not abuse cord. Never use the cord to pull the plug from an outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electrical shock.

When operating a tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”. These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electrical shock.

Use only three-wire extension cords which have three-prong grounding plugs and three-pole receptacles which accept the machines plug. Use of other extension cords will not ground the tool and increase the risk of electrical shock.

Use proper extension cords. (See chart.) Insufficient conductor size will cause excessive voltage drop, loss of power and overheating.

Keep all electric connections dry and off the ground. Do not touch plugs or tool with wet hands.

Reduces the risk of electrical shock.

Personal Safety

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medications. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is OFF before plugging in. Plugging in tools that have the switch ON invites accidents.

Remove adjusting keys before turning the tool ON. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance en-

ables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.

Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.

Tool Use and Care

Do not use if switch does not turn it ON or OFF.

Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.

Store idle tools out of the reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool's operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.

Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when used on another tool.

Keep handles dry and clean; free from oil and grease. Allows for better control of the tool.

Service

Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by unqualified repair personnel could result in injury.

When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance Section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions may create a risk of electrical shock or injury.

Specific Safety Information

WARNING

Read this operator’s manual carefully before using the 1822-I Threading Machine. Failure to understand and follow the contents of this manual may result in electrical shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.

Call the Ridge Tool Company, Technical Service Department at (800) 519-3456 if you have any questions.

WARNING Foot Switch Safety

Using a threading machine without a foot switch increases the risk of serious injury. A foot switch provides better control by letting you shut off the motor by removing your foot. If clothing should become caught in the machine, it will continue to wind up, pulling you into the machine. Because the machine has high torque, the clothing itself can bind around your arm or other body parts with enough force to crush or break bones.

Machine Safety

Threading Machine is made to thread and cut pipe or bolt and to power roll grooving equipment. Follow instructions on proper use of this machine. Do not use for other purposes such as drilling holes or turning winches. Other uses or modifying this machine for other applications may increase the risk of serious injury.

Secure machine to bench or stand. Support long heavy pipe with pipe supports. This practice will prevent tipping.

Do not wear gloves or loose clothing when operating machine. Keep sleeves and jackets buttoned. Do not reach across the machine or pipe. Clothing can be caught by the pipe or machine resulting in entanglement and serious injury.

Operate machine from side with CLOSE/OFF/- OPEN switch. Eliminates need to reach over the machine.

Do not use this machine if foot switch is broken or missing. Foot switch is a safety device to prevent serious injury.

Keep hands away from rotating pipe and fittings. Stop the machine before wiping pipe threads or screwing on fittings. Allow the machine to come to a complete stop before touching the pipe. This practice will prevent entanglement and serious injury.

Do not use this machine to make or break fittings.

This practice is not an intended use of the machine and can result in serious injury.

Keep covers in place. Do not operate the machine with covers removed. Exposure to moving parts may result in entanglement and serious injury.

Lock foot switch when machine is not in use (Figure 1). Avoids accidental starting.

Ridge Tool Company

1822-I Pipe and Bolt Threading Machine

NOTE! High speed dies are recommended for use with this machine when threading 1″ - 2″ pipe at 45 RPM. Because of its high speed, alloy dies will wear quickly and produce poor quality threads.

11.Clean metal shavings and other debris from the chip tray of the Threading Machine. Check the level and quality of the thread cutting oil. Replace or add oil if necessary. Reservoir in the base will hold approximately one (1) gallon of thread cutting oil.

NOTE! Thread cutting oil lubricates and cools the threads during the threading operation. A dirty or poor grade cutting oil can result in poor thread quality.

NOTE! For improved thread quality use RIDGID Stainless Steel Oil and thread at 16 RPM.

NOTE! To drain dirty oil and properly maintain the oil system, refer to the “Maintenance Instructions”.

Machine and Work Area Set-Up

WARNING

To prevent serious injury, proper set-up of the machine and work area is required. The following procedures should be followed to set-up the machine.

1.Locate a work area that has the following:

Adequate lighting

No flammable liquids, vapors or dust that may ignite.

Grounded electrical outlet

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 equipment. 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 beyond 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 Machine, set-up guards or barricades to create a minimum of three (3) feet of clearance around the Threading Machine and workpiece. This “safety zone”

prevents others from accidentally contacting the machine or workpiece and either causing the equipment to tip or becoming entangled in the rotating parts.

5.If mounted on a 1406 Folding Wheel Stand, make sure 1460 Oil Pan Cover is removed.

6.If necessary, fill the reservoir with RIDGID Thread Cutting Oil.

7.Make sure OPEN/OFF/CLOSE switch is in the OFF position.

8.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 and tools without reaching across the machine.

Machine is designed for one person operation.

9.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 condition.

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.

The cord has sufficient wire thickness (14 AWG below 25’/12 AWG 25’-50’). If the wire thickness is too small, the cord may overheat, melting the cord’s insulation or causing nearby objects to ignite.

WARNING To reduce risk of electrical shock, keep all electrical connections dry and off the ground. Do not touch plug with wet hands.

10.Check the Threading Machine to insure it is operating properly.

Flip the control switch to CLOSE. Press and release the foot switch. Check that the Threading Machine rotates in a counterclockwise direction as you are facing the front chuck and that the jaws close down toward center. Have the Threading Machine serviced if it rotates in the wrong direction or if the foot switch does not control its stopping or starting.
