moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase

the risk of electric shock.

• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an

extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a

cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of elec-

tric shock.

• If operating a power tool in a damp location is

unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter

(GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces

the risk of electric shock.

Personal Safety

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-

mon sense when operating a power tool. Do not

use a power tool while you are tired or under the

influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A mo -

ment of inattention while operating power tools may

result in serious personal injury.

• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear

eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust

mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing

protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce

personal injuries.

• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch

is in the OFF-position before connecting to power

source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying

the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the

switch or energizing power tools that have the switch

ON invites accidents.

• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turn-

ing the power tool ON. A wrench or a key left at -

tached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in

personal injury.

• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-

ance at all times. This enables better control of the

power tool in unexpected situations.

• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewel ry. Keep your hair and clothing away from

moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair

can be caught in moving parts.

• If devices are provided for the connection of dust

extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are

connected and properly used. Use of dust collection

can reduce dust-related hazards.

• Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of

tools allow you to become complacent and ignore

tool safety principles. A careless action can cause

severe injury within a fraction of a second.

Power Tool Use And Care

• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power

tool for your application. The correct power tool

will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is

designed.

• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not

turn it ON and OFF. Any power tool that cannot be

controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be

repaired.

• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or

remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the

power tool before making any adjustments, chang-

ing accessories, or storing power tools. Such pre-

ventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting

the power tool accidentally.

• Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-

dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with

the pow er tool or these instructions to operate

the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the

hands of untrained users.

• Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or

binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and

any other condition that may affect the power

tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool

repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by

poorly maintained power tools.

• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main-

tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less

likely to bind and are easier to control.

• Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.

in accordance with these instructions, taking into

account the working conditions and the work to be

performed. Use of the power tool for operations dif-

ferent from those intended could result in a hazardous

situation.

• Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean

and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and

grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and

control of the tool in unexpected situations.

Service

• Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair

person using only identical replacement parts.

This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is

maintained.

Specific Safety Information

WARNING

Read this operator’s manual carefully before using

the 300 Power Driver. Failure to understand and fol-

low the contents of this manual may result in elec-

trical shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.

Call the Ridge Tool Company, Technical Service Depart -

ment at (800) 519-3456 if you have any questions.

Foot Switch Safety

Using a power drive or 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 contin-

ue 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

• Power Drive is made to thread and cut pipe or

bolt and to power RIDGID roll grooving equip-

ment. 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 power drive 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 oper-

ating 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 REV/OFF/FOR

switch. Eliminates need to reach over the machine.

• Do not use this machine if the foot switch is bro-

ken 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 or ma -

chine chucks. This practice will prevent entangle-

ment 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.

• Tighten chuck handwheel and engage rear cen-

tering device on the pipe before turning on the

machine. Prevents oscillation of the pipe.

• Keep covers in place. Do not operate the ma chine

with covers removed. Exposure to moving parts may

result in entanglement and serious injury.

• Lock foot switch when machine is not in use (Fi -

gure 1). Avoids accidental starting.

Description, Specifications and

Standard Equipment

Description

The RIDGID

Model 300 Power Drive is an electric motor-

driven machine which centers and chucks pipe, conduit

and rod (bolt stock) and rotates it while threading, cutting

and reaming operations are performed. Forward (clock-

wise) or Reverse (counterclockwise) rotation can be

selected with the FOR/OFF/REV switch and a foot switch

provides ON/OFF control of the motor.

The threading, cutting and reaming operations can be per-

formed by conventional hand tools or tools designed for

mounting on the Power Drive. A manual oiling system is

available to flood the workpiece with thread cutting oil dur-

ing the threading operation. Geared Threaders can also be

used with the Power Drive to thread larger diameter pipe.

The RIDGID Model 300 Power Drive can also be used

as a power source for roll grooving equipment. Designed

to attach to the support arms of the Power Drive, the roll

grooving equipment forms standard roll grooves on a

variety of pipe sizes and materials.

NOTE! Contact a RIDGID distributor or consult the RIDGID

catalog for specifications on roll grooving equip-

ment.

• 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 or oiler to prevent slips

and falls.

3. Set up the Power Drive on a flat, level surface.

• For a Power Drive mounted on a 1206 Stand,

open legs of stand and push down on the tray.

Legs should be stiff and stand should not wobble.

NOTE! To increase or decrease leg stiffness, refer to

instructions on “Mounting On 1206 Stand”.

4.. If the workpiece extends more than four (4) feet

beyond the Power Drive, use one or more pipe stands

to prevent tipping and the oscillation of the pipe.

5. If the workpiece extends beyond the Power Drive, set-

up guards or barricades to create a minimum of

three (3) feet of clearance around the Power Drive

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.

6. If necessary, fill the 418 Oiler with RIDGID Thread

Cutting Oil. Position the oiler under the front of the

Power Drive (Figure 3).

7. Make sure FOR/OFF/REV switch is in the OFF posi-

tion.

8. Position the foot switch so that the operator can

safely control the machine, tools and workpiece. As

shown in Figure 8, 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.

9. Plug the Power Drive 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.

940-600.015.10_REV. D

5. Inspect the power cord and plug for damage. If the

plug has been modified, is missing the grounding

pin or if the cord is damaged, do not use the Power

Drive until the cord has been replaced.

6. Inspect the Power Drive for any broken, missing,

misaligned or binding parts as well as any other con-

ditions which may affect the safe and normal opera-

tion of the machine. If any of these conditions are pre-

sent, do not use the Power Drive until any problem

has been repaired.

7. Lubricate the Power Drive spindle bearings if neces-

sary according to the Maintenance Instructions.

8. Use tools and accessories that are specifically

designed for your Power Drive and meet the needs of

your application. The correct tools and accessories

allow you to do the job successfully and safely.

Accessories suitable for use with other equipment

may be hazardous when used with this Power Drive.

9. Clean any oil, grease or dirt from all handles and

controls. This reduces the risk of injury due to a tool or

control slipping from your grip.

Inspect the cutting edges of your tools and dies. If

necessary, have them replaced prior to using the

Power Drive. Dull or damaged cutting tools and

dies can lead to binding, tool breakage and poor

quality threads.

10. Clean metal shavings and other debris from the chip

tray of the 418 Oiler. Check the level and quality of the

thread cutting oil. Replace or add oil if necessary.

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.

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 ma -

chine:

1. Locate a work area that has the following:

• Adequate lighting.

• No flammable liquids, vapors or dust that may ignite.

• Grounded electrical outlet.

300 Power Drive

940-600.015.10_REV. D

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.

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 Power Drive to insure it is operating properly.

• Flip the directional switch to FOR (Forward). Press

and release the foot switch. Check that the Power

Drive rotates in a counterclockwise direction as you

are facing the front chuck. Have the Power Drive

serviced if it rotates in the wrong direction 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 con-

ditions are present, have the power drive serviced.

• Flip the directional switch to REV (Reverse). Press

and release the foot switch. Check that the Power

Drive rotates in a clockwise direction as you are fac-

ing the chuck.

• Release the foot switch and flip the directional

Operating Instructions

For Using Hand Tools

WARNING

Do not wear gloves or loose clothing when operat-

ing Power Drive. Keep sleeves and jackets but-

toned. Do not reach across the machine or pipe.

Do not use this Power Drive if the foot switch is

broken or missing. Always wear eye protection to

protect eyes from dirt and other foreign objects.

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 or

machine chucks.

Do not use this machine to “make-on” or “break

off” fittings. This practice is not an intended use of

this Power Drive.

Installing Pipe In Power Drive:

1. Mark the pipe at the desired length if it is being cut

to length.

2. Insert the pipe into the Power Drive so that the end to

be worked or the cutting mark is located about 12

inches to the front of the speed chuck jaws.

3. Insert workpieces less than 2 feet long from the front

of the machine. Insert longer pipes through either end

so that the longer section extends out beyond the rear

of the Power Drive.

To avoid equipment tip-overs, position

the pipe supports under the workpiece.

4. Tighten the rear centering device around the pipe by

using a counterclockwise rotation of the handwheel at

the rear of the Power Drive. This prevents move-

ment of the pipe that can result in poor thread quality.

5. Secure the pipe by using repeated and forceful coun-

terclockwise spins of the speed chuck handwheel

at the front of the Power Drive. This action “hammers”

the jaws tightly around the pipe.

6. Extend both support bars fully beyond the front of

the Power Drive.

Cutting Pipe with Hand Cutter

1. Position the pipe cutter on the workpiece with the

cutter wheels facing up (see “Accessories” section

for pipe cutters recommended for use with this

Power Drive).

2. Align the cutter wheels with the mark on the pipe and

rest the pipe cutter’s body on the left support bar

(Figure 5). Hand-tighten the pipe cutter to the work-

piece using the feedscrew handle while keeping the

cutter wheels aligned with the mark.

3. Assume the correct operating posture (Figure 8).

This will allow you to maintain proper balance and to

safely keep control of the machine and tools.

• Be sure you can quickly remove your foot from

the foot switch.

• Stand facing the directional switch.

• Be sure you have convenient access to directional

switch, tools and chucks.

• Do not reach across the machine or workpiece.

the pipe cutter and be sure it is resting on the support bar.

If not held firmly or supported, the tool may rotate or fall to

the ground.

7. Release the foot switch and remove your foot from the

housing.

Reaming Pipe with Hand Reamer

To prevent serious injury, do not use self-

feeding spiral reamers with the 300 Power Drive.

1. Flip the directional switch to FOR (Forward).

2. Place the reamer in the end of the pipe (see the

“Accessories” section for reamers recommended for

use with this Power Drive).

3. Assume the correct operating posture.

4. Rest handle on the left support bar (Figure 6) and

hold the reamer handgrip with the right hand. To

avoid pinch point injuries, keep your fingers from

coming between the reamer and the support bar.

5. Firmly grasp the end of the reamer handle with the left

hand, then depress and hold the foot switch down.

6. Push the reamer firmly into the pipe with your right

hand until ream is complete. Keep your hand and arm

away from any rotating parts and use a firm grip on

the handgrip.

Operating Instructions

for Carriage-Mounted

Power Drive Tools

WARNING

Do not wear gloves or loose clothing when oper-

ating Power Drive. Keep sleeves and jackets but-

toned. Do not reach across the machine or pipe.

Do not use this Power Drive if the foot switch is

broken or missing. Always wear eye protection to

protect eyes from dirt and other foreign objects.

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 or

machine chucks.

Do not use this machine to “make-on” or “break

off” fittings. This practice is not an intended use of

this Power Drive.

Installing Pipe in Power Drive

1. Check to insure the cutter, reamer and die head is

swung to the rear of the carriage.

2. Mark the pipe at the desired length if it is being cut

to length.

3. Insert the pipe into the Power Drive so that the end

to be worked or the cutting mark is located about 12

inches to the front of the speed chuck jaws.

4. Insert workpieces less than 2 feet long form the

front of the machine. Insert longer pipes through

either end so that the longer section extends out

beyond the rear of the Power Drive.

To avoid equipment tip-overs, position

the pipe supports under the workpiece.

5. Tighten the rear centering device around the pipe by

using a counterclockwise rotation of the handwheel at

the rear of the Power Drive. This prevents movement

of the pipe that can result in poor thread quality.

6. Secure the pipe by using repeated and forceful

counterclockwise spins of the speed chuck hand-

wheel at the front of the Power Drive. This action

“hammers” the jaws tightly around the pipe.

Cutting Pipe with No. 360 Cutter

1. Check to insure the reamer and die head are in

the UP position (Figure 9).

2. Move pipe cutter down onto pipe and move car-

riage with carriage lever to line up cutter wheel with

mark on pipe.

3. Tighten cutter feedscrew handle while keeping the

cutter wheel aligned with the mark.

4. Assume the correct operating posture (Figure 11).

This will allow you to maintain proper bal-

ance and to safely keep control of the machine and tools.

• Be sure you can quickly remove your foot from the

foot switch.

• Stand facing the directional switch.

• Be sure you have convenient access to direc-

tional switch, tools and chucks.

• Do not reach across the machine or workpiece.

5. Flip the directional switch to FOR (Forward).

6. Grasp the pipe cutter’s feed handle with both hands

(Figure 9).

Figure 9 – Cutting Pipe with No. 360 Cutter

7. Depress and hold down the foot switch with the left
