Standard Equipment

Refer to the RIDGID catalog for details on equipment
supplied with specific machine catalog numbers.
The Threading Machine serial number plate is located on
the end of the base or the back of the base. The last 4 dig-

lation, joining and forming methods is the responsibility of
the system designer and/or installer. Selection of improp-
er materials and methods could cause system failure.
Stainless steel and other corrosion resistant materials
can be contaminated during installation, joining and form-
ing. This contamination could cause corrosion and pre-
mature failure. Careful evaluation of materials and methods
for the specific service conditions, including chemical and
temperature, should be completed before any installation
is attempted.

Machine Assembly

WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury during use, fol-
low these procedures for proper assembly.
Failure to mount the threading machine to a stable
stand or bench may result in tipping and serious
injury.
REV/OFF/FWD switch should be OFF and machine
unplugged before assembly.
Use proper lifting techniques. The RIDGID 300 Com -
pact weighs 141 lb (64 kg) and the 1233 weighs 165 lb

Mounting on Stands

The Threading Machines can be mounted on various
RIDGID Threader Stands. Refer to RIDGID catalog for
stand information and to the respective Stand Instruction
Sheet for mounting instructions.

Mounting on Bench

The machines can be mounted on a level, stable bench.
To mount the unit on a bench, use four
in holes provided at each corner of the machine base.
Base hole spacing is 12.25" × 18" (311 mm x 457 mm).
Tighten securely.

Mounting on Pipe Legs

Four equal lengths of 1" (25 mm) pipe can be used as a
stand for both the machines. Pipes cut to 33" (0.84 m)
length will place the machine rails approximately 36"
(0.91 m) off the ground. Fully insert the pipes into leg sock-
ets provided on the underside of the base at the cor-
ners. Secure with four provided 10 mm hex bolts through
the base. See Figure 4.
