This is a Product Recall Notice. We recently determined that the strain relief (cord connector) that
retains the cord to the foot switch may not properly hold the cord. This could allow liquid to enter the
foot switch or cause wire damage from the cord movement, either of which, if the foot switch is used
with an improperly grounded power supply, could result in an electrical shock or fire hazard which
can result in severe injury or death.
All of the above listed products produced between April 1st, 1999 and July 1st, 2006 use the
B-294HD (Heavy Duty 20 amp) foot switch and may exhibit this problem. Affected units can be
identified by black foot switch cord, “HD” marking on foot switch (see above photo), and machine serial
numbers ending in –0606, -0506, -0406, -0306, -0206, -0106, and -05 or lower.
Please take immediate steps to determine if you have any of these products in your possession. If you
do, contact Ridge Tool Technical Services at (800) 519-3456 or T
[email protected] to determine if
your product is effected by this recall. If so, Ridge Tool will provide a new strain relief and instructions on
how to change the strain relief and inspect the cord.
Thank you for your cooperation and we regret any inconvenience this may have caused you. If you have
any questions, please contact Ridge Tool Technical Services at (800) 519-3456 or
