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 these tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases, or dust. Electrical switches may create
sparks which may ignite dust or fumes.
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while
operating a Pipe Thawing Unit. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
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 out-
let is properly grounded. If the tool should electrically
malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low
resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such
as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There
is an increased risk of electrical shock if your body is
grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet condi-
tions. Water entering an electrical tool will increase the
risk of electrical shock.
Do not abuse cord. Never use the cord to carry the
tools or 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 an electrical 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 re-
ceptacles which accept the tools plug. Use of other
extension cords will not ground the tool and increases
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 com-
mon sense when operating a tool. Do not use tool
while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol
or medications. A moment of inattention while oper-
ating tools may result in serious personal injury.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is OFF
before plugging in. Plugging in machines that have
the switch ON invites accidents.
Do not over-reach. Keep proper footing and bal-
ance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables
better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hear-
ing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
Tool Use and Care
Do not use tool if switch does not turn it ON or
OFF. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch
is dangerous and must be repaired.
Store idle tools out of the reach of children and
other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in
the hands of untrained users.
Maintain tools with care. Properly maintained tools
are less likely to cause injury.
Check for 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 tool. Accessories that may be
suitable for one tool may become hazardous when
used on another tool.
Inspect tool and extension cords periodically and
replace if damaged. Damaged cords increase the risk
of electrical shock.
Keep handles dry and clean; free from oil and
grease. Allows for better control of the tool.
Disconnect the plug from the power source before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing the unit. These preventative safety measures
reduce the risk of accidentally starting the unit.
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 replace-
ment 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.
Disconnect all power from the unit before servic-
ing. Eliminates the risk of electrical shock and
accidental starting.

Description and Specifications:
Description
The RIDGID Pipe Thawing Machines are easy-to-use,
and versatile for thawing 1/2to 11/2copper or steel/iron
pipe up to 150 feet (KT-200). Both the KT-190 and KT-200
use low voltage and high amperage to quickly thaw frozen
tap water lines and frozen heating systems.
This method does not require that you know exactly
where the frozen section is nor do you have to have direct
access to the area. The KT-190 and KT-200 will thaw cop-
per or steel pipe that is underground, beneath the floor or
behind walls. Multiple voltage settings on the KT-200
allow for maximum amperage to provide the shortest
thawing time. Vinyl coated clamps with 25 foot cables,
standard with both units, permit thawing of a 50 section of
pipe. Additional 25 cable extensions are available for
longer runs.
Specifications
Line Capacity:
Primarily recommended for all indoor copper or steel
pipes from 1/2to 11/2. Thawing units will not work with
plastic pipe or lines containing plastic or rubber couplings.

Main Service Lines
If there is no running water anywhere in the house, the
main service from the curb valve to the house is frozen.
The service can be thawed by placing one clamp on a tap
water line in the basement and the other on the curb key
attached to the curb valve. Make sure there is contact be-
tween the curb key and valve. Extension Cables are
required if runs exceed 50 feet. Additional thawing units
may be required to reduce thawing time. Refer to Special
Application Procedure for Series Set-Up.
Tap Water Lines
Locate the frozen line by opening faucets and checking for
water flow. The frozen section will normally be in an out-
side wall or in a crawl space with poor insulation. If one
faucet does not have running water and the next faucet
does, frozen section is between faucets. Place clamps on
either hot or cold water lines, not on faucets.
Refer to Thawing Tap Water Lines for procedure.

dures should be followed:
Figure 3 – Thawing Tool with Cables Installed
Installing Cables with Clamps
1. Remove retaining nut from one of the lugs on back of
unit.
2. Slip looped end of cable onto lug bolt with flat side to-
wards unit.
3. Reinstall lug nut and secure tightly.
4. Ensure looped end of cable does not contact housing.
5. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for remaining lug.
NOTE! If cable leads are not securely fastened to thaw-
ing unit, thawing time may be extended and/or
unit may not function properly.
Tool Inspection
WARNING
To prevent serious injury, inspect your Pipe
Thawing Tool. The following procedures should
be followed.
1. Make sure Pipe Thawing Tool is unplugged and the
control switches are in the OFF position.
2. Inspect the power cord and plug for damage. If the
plug has been modified, is missing the grounding
prong or if the cord is damaged, do not use the
Thawing Tool until the cord has been replaced.
3. Inspect the cables and clamps for damage. Be sure
cable leads are securely fastened to thawing unit. If
cable or clamps are damaged, do not use the
Thawing Tool until they are replaced. Only use cable
and clamps provided with the unit.
4. Clean any oil, grease or dirt from handles, controls
and clamps.
5. Inspect the Thawing Tool for any broken or missing
parts as well as damage to the metal enclosure. If any
of these conditions are present, do not use the Thaw-
ing Tool until any problem has been repaired.
Tool Set-Up
WARNING
To prevent serious injury, proper set-up of the tool
and work area is required. The following proce-
dures should be followed to set-up the Pipe Thawing
Tool.
1. Check work area for:
Adequate lighting
15 Amp 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 tool and operator. Do not use the
tool while standing in water.
Flammable liquids, vapors or dust that may ignite.
2. Position KT-190 or KT-200 Pipe Thawer near the
area suspected of having a frozen section of pipe.
3. Make sure unit is unplugged and turned OFF. (Switch
on KT-190 is in the down (OFF) position. Center
switch on KT-200 is in the middle (OFF) position).
4. Uncoil both cables completely and insure they are not
overlapping or in contact.
5. Follow instructions on proper placement of clamps.
Making pipe connections before plug-
ging in unit prevents arcing between clamp and pipe.
NOTE! Whenever making connections, clean pipe of
paint, scale rust, etc. to ensure good amperage
flow from the clamps to the pipe. Poor connec-
tions will cause the clamps to get much hotter
than normal.
WARNING
Ridge Tool Company6
6. When plugging the Pipe Thawing Tool into the elec-
trical 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.
To avoid electric 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 out-
doors.
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.
Operating Instructions
WARNING
To reduce risk of electrical shock, keep all electri-
cal connections dry and off the ground. Do not
touch plug with wet hands.
Be very careful when thawing frozen pipes. Clamp
tips and cable connections become hot during use.
Avoid contact with skin as burns can result.
Keep clamps away from combustible materials or
articles that can be damaged by heat.
Do not leave the unit unattended while thawing.
Thawing Tap Water Lines
NOTE! It is recommended that there be standard water
pressure on one side of the frozen section of
pipe and an open faucet on the other side of the
frozen section . As the pipe warms to(Figure 4)
above freezing point, the water, with pressure
behind it, will seep along the inside walls melting
and flushing the remaining ice out of the faucet.
1. Make sure unit is unplugged and turned OFF and
cables are completely uncoiled.
2. Place one clamp on each side of the frozen section of
pipe. Open the faucet where no water flows.
Making pipe connections before plug-
ging in unit prevents arcing between clamps and pipe.
3. Plug unit into a grounded 15 amp outlet making sure
to position the power cord along the clear path se-
lected earlier.
4. Move switch to ON (up position on KT-190. Center
switch down to low position, left switch to A on KT-200).
5. If current is below 15 amps on KT-200, switch to B. If
current is still below 15 amps, switch to high position
on center switch and right switch up to C.
6. Continue until 15 amps is reached but not exceeded,
D switch setting is used with long runs.
Thawing time may vary from a few seconds to several
hours depending on length and diameter of pipe being
thawed. If time seems unreasonable, check clamps for
proper placement.

NOTE! The electrical output current of both the KT-190
and KT-200 can take two paths. The shortest
distance between the clamps, or the long path
around the pipe loop. Therefore, in some sys-
tems it is required to break the pipe to eliminate
the short path (Figure 7).
Single Zone System
1. Circulating pump must be operating.
2. Make sure unit is unplugged and OFF and cables
are completely uncoiled.
3. Place one clamp near the furnace and the second
clamp next to a radiator.
Making pipe connections before plug-
ging in unit prevents arcing between clamps and pipe.
4. Plug unit into a grounded 15 amp outlet, making
sure to position the power cord along the clear path
selected earlier.
5. Position switch to ON. (Up position on KT-190. Center
switch down to low and left switch to lower A position
on KT-200).
NOTE! This tool is equipped with a thermal overload for
added safety. If thawing for long periods of time at
maximum current, the unit may shut down auto-
matically. Unit will resume operations auto-
matically after approximately 3 minutes.
Tool Removal
1. When water lines have thawed, turn switch to the
OFF position and unplug power cord from the elec-
trical outlet.
2. Remove clamps from the pipe.
Clamp tips are hot and can cause burns.
3. Allow clamps to cool before coiling cables and placing
the unit in storage. While the clamps are hot, keep
them away from combustible materials or articles
that can be damaged by heat.
Thawing Frozen Hydronic Systems
NOTE! Hydronic systems are harder to thaw due to the
lower pressure produced by the circulating pump
and the greater lengths of pipe required in a sin-
gle or multi-zone system.

6. If current is below 15 amps on KT-200, switch to B. If
current is still below 15 amps, switch to high position
on center switch and right switch up to C.
7. Continue until 15 amps is reached but not exceeded;
D switch setting is used with long runs.
Multi-Zone System
If you are dealing with multi-zones it will be necessary to
break the electric current flow to specific zones.
1. Make sure unit is unplugged and switch is in the OFF
position and cables are completely uncoiled.
2. Place the pipe clamps several feet apart.
Making pipe connections before plug-
ging in unit prevents arcing between clamp and pipe.
3. Maintain a minimum of 15 feet between clamps when
using the KT-190, 4 feet for KT-200, to prevent ex-
cessive amp draw.
4. Plug unit into a grounded 15 amp outlet making sure
to position the power cord along the clear path se-
lected earlier.
5. Move switch to ON (Up position on KT-190. Center
switch to low and left switch down to A on KT-200.) If
current draw is below 15 amps, select switch B, C, or
D to maximize amp draw and reduce thaw time. (Do
not exceed 15 amps)
NOTE! If the heat is not restored to piping in 10 minutes,
change the location of the clamps to heat a dif-
ferent section of the system. If the above steps
have been tried without success, the entire zone
is frozen and will need to be thawed by following
the Isolating Multi-Zone Steps.
Isolating Multi-Zone Systems
1. Break and cap pipe at point B. This prevents cur-
rent flow through the second zone and allows for
100% of the current to be used in Zone #1. Do not let
pipe ends contact one another.
2. Break the pipe at Point A and place pipe clamps as
shown in . This forces the current to flowFigure 7
through Zone #1. Use a container to collect the water.
3. Once Zone #1 is thawed, turn the unit and circulating
pump OFF. If Zone #2 is frozen, cap the pipe at Point
A Remove the cap from Point B and place a container
at Point B to collect the water.
4. Place the clamps of the opposites sides of the break
at Point B. Once Zone #2 is thawed, turn circulating
pump and thawing unit OFF.
5. Reconnect all pipes and check both Zone #1 and #2
for heat.

3. Connect one end of the pigtail (Ridge Catalog #62812)
on the right lug of the left unit, and the other end on the
left lug of the right unit.
4. Attach pipe thawing leads to remaining lugs.
5. Place one clamp on either side of the frozen section of
pipe.
Making pipe connections before plug-
ging in unit prevents arcing between clamps and pipe.
6. Plug the units into outlets that are NOT on the same
circuit. (Protected by separate fuses).
Both thawing units must be plugged into
electrical outlets before switching unit ON. Failure to
follow the procedure can result in electrical shock.
7. With two units connected in series, seven power set-
tings are available with the KT-200 by using the
switches on both units. The combinations are AA,
AB, BB, BC, CC, CD, DD.
NOTE! A circuit will not be completed until the switch of
both units is in the ON position.
Figure 8 – Series Set-Up
Parallel Operation
Units arranged in parallel work best for larger pipes di-
ameters.
Figure 9 – Parallel Set-Up
1. Position units near frozen section of pipe.
2. Make sure units are unplugged and switches are in
the OFF position and cables are completely uncoiled.
3. Attach cables and clamps to lugs.
4. Place clamps on either side of the frozen section of
pipe.
Making pipe connections before plug-
ging in unit prevents arcing between clamp and pipe.
5. Plug units into outlets that are NOT on the same cir-
cuit. (protected by different fuses).
Both thawing units must be plugged into
electrical outlets before switching unit ON. Failure to fol-
low the procedure can result in electrical shock.
6. The power settings available are AA, BB, CC, and DD
with the KT-200.
NOTE! With both units on the same setting both KT-200
amp. meters should read approximately the
same. If this does not occur, turn both units OFF
and exchange the cables on one unit. The correct
polarity is achieved by the cable hook-up that pro-
duces the lowest amp. meter reading.
IMPORTANT: Failure to follow above set-up will result
in most current flowing through the ad-
jacent clamps and not the pipe.

agua potable en el s tano de la casa y la otra pinzaó
sobre la llave que se encuentra acoplada a la válvula
en la calle. Aseg lvula en laúrese de que la llave y la vá
calle est n haciendo contacto. Si las longitudes exce-é
den los 50 pies, se requerir n cables de extensiá ón. Para

Descripción y especificaciones
Descripción
Las m quinas descongeladoras de tuber as marcaá í
RIDGID son vers tiles y fá áciles de usar para descongelar
tuberías de cobre o de hierro/acero de 1/2a 11/2pulgadas
de di metro de hasta 150 pies de longitud (KT-200).á
Ambos modelos, KT-190 y KT-200, emplean bajo voltaje
y alto amperaje para r pidamente descongelar tuberá ías
domiciliarias de agua potable y sistemas de calefacción
que se encuentren congelados.
Este m todo no requiere que se conozca con exactitud elé
lugar en que se ubica la secci n congelada y tampoco esó
necesario que se disponga de un acceso directo a la
zona congelada. Ambas unidades descongelan tubos de
acero o de cobre situados bajo tierra, debajo del piso, o
detrás de paredes. La KT-200 posee múltiples posiciones
de voltaje para lograr el máximo de amperaje y as garan-í
tizar un tiempo m nimo de descongelaci n. Las pinzasí ó
recubiertas de vinilo y con 25 pies de cable, estándar en
ambas unidades, permiten descongelar una sección de tu-
bería de 50 pies de longitud. Para longitudes mayores hay
disponibles extensiones de cable de 25 pies.
