Love the music. Gonna play this for my first dance with my lovely bride.

[@mofomoco]

I am going to go play with my tool right now!

[@CorgiDaddy]

I used my Ryobi multi tool to remove old kitchen cabinets and when I installed wood flooring. It's a handy tool to have around and worth the investment.

[@alsparker7761]

would love this item to come in its own case with room to store its blades

[@ivymora18]

The multiple tool is amazing, I used it recently with the sanding attachment to get in to a corner while adding board and batten to my office.

[@MKBergamot]

Home Depot needs to show this for sales training.

[@ryobiguydiy]

I have the HP multi tool and it’s been awesome for furniture work! Especially when I need to sand in tight spaces or remove small pieces of wood.

[@joshisennagle7272]

Father loves it

[@familydogg1234]

Thank You for choosing RHYOBI! I purchased the Hedge Trimmer and am amazed that it can cut tiny " trees" and branches. The battery lasts over 30 minutes. No more hooking up 400 feet of chord or worrying about cutting the chord.Im up to owning 6 different tools and growing.

[@user-ps9wj7jq8x]

dont need the music.

[@bandersnatch5864]

I clicked because it was a woman talking about the tool (and as a woman looking ti use the tool, I liked this). I lingered because of the sexy RYOBI tool wall behind her. I stayed (and hit the Thumbs Up) because of the information. Great job!

[@shannonevans4892]

Yes, girl! Cheers to that! You’re in the right place because RYOBI certainly recognizes people, not genders. I am honored to be in this place, as a woman in the DIY world! 💚💚💚

[@Nyle95]

Very informative video, thanks! I'm slowly building my Ryobi collection... So far I have a combi drill, impact driver, glue gun and have just ordered a SDS drill. Next on my wishlist is a multi-tool, caulking gun & heat gun.. By the way, Shannon you are 🔥🔥🔥.

[@iGoldeneYe]

Great Video! Didn't know what this tool was/did until I saw your video. Cool Tool! Thank you.

[@Grimreaper45705]

I look forward to buying one , after doing a lot drywall and cutting by hand and having to use a chisel and hammer for trim this will be a nice addition to my tools

[@geolebline7556]

I haven't even taken this out of the box until I watched this today ..I had no idea what it was used for..(2 years later)

[@nicci24]

I have a brand new Ryobi multi tool and the blade just loosens and falls off the second you try to use it

[@fooddude9921]

Which blade is used to cut tile and concrete? Your advertising says this multi-tool can cut these items but none of your literature is specific on which blade is the one to use.

[@HyperactiveNeuron]

I wish I had the extra money to get the brushless model when I bought mine. The tooless blade change and switch instead of the trigger would suit me much better but it was like a $50 difference at Home Depot at the time so no thank you. I can't even get someone to unlock the cages to buy a battery. Sadly when my Ryobi batteries die, my tools will probably get replaced one by one.

[@cusimilooking4965]

So how do I get close to the ceiling so I can cut the drywall that leads to it? The rotating circular blade won't let me do it. Do I need to change to a different accessory?

[@Jretropie]

what speed you should set when you are cutting nails.

[@louisschaefer-cg3cn]

my blades seem to come loose alot, I have the brush model

[@ankewynmalen1186]

The blade could not get through the excess piece of oak at the back of an old dressing table after the mirror was removed. I thought that would be easy with this tool but not so! Is oak too hard for this tool? What if I used a stronger battery?

[@xungngo]

Is mine a defect because I really really have to try hard (with 2 hands) to turn it on/off. It's frustrating because I love the tool and everything else. Right now, it's actually a dangerous tool to use since on and off requires a lot of effort.

[@beemercycle]

Does the saw have a depth stop? I.e. a depth guard to keep you from cutting too deep?

[@franceswatts4001]

Put a piece of masking tape round the blade with the top edge at the required depth. When the material you are cutting touches the tape, you are at the correct depth. Same way you would do with drill bits.

[@bcreason]

I’ve got the bastardized system. Ryobi handle and battery, Rigid multi tool head. I’ve a whole collection of Rigid heads for that one Ryobi handle. Multi tool, saws all, right angle impact, right angle drill, right angle ratchet. It’s a pretty good set up for a home owner. Cheaper than buying complete tools.

[@timobrien7797]

How do you use the hex?

[@R3Quency]

Yeah it’s great but mine broke snapped off at the oscillating head while fitting the kitchen? Not even two years old.

[@markzanetti6228]

what model? RYOBI PCL430B ?

[@tanjunenow]

Where is the r18mt sold ?

[@user-zf2ci6bx5r]

The video fails to show how to install an accessory on the standard multi-tool. To wit: How to release the mounting, install the accessory the correct way around and correct alignment, secure and check for safety before use. The Manual also does nor show how to do this. I'm still searching the internet.

[@randallmacdonald4851]

I can install and uninstall but in use, the hex screw comes undone and the blade unlocks. This is extremely dangerous. The hex screw has no preventitive for unscrewing.

[@thenoodlebuddy]

Same I've just bought one from Amazon and instructions are useless and blade keeps falling off. Don't understand what I'm doing wrong. It is just a nut that you lock in place using an Allan key

[@mikelowery482]

Hahaha.... don't buy a tool you have no idea how to use. I probably saved you 10k 🤣🤣🤣.

[@christinesettles2985]

Would love to win the tools with Christina M, she inspires me and so do the tools!!!

[@stonekold]

only issues I had was manual has ZERO info on speed settings or a chart and none of the blades can go through a 2x4 because they are too short except for Harbour Freight 1-3/4 in. Bi-Metal, not for wood.

[@megandd1797]

I didn't get any of these tools that are supposed to go with it!

[@stevenwagner9912]

I was sent one of these instead of the circular saw I ordered. Thought I'd just try it. So far I'm not impressed. Tried to cut a 2 by in two.

[@Amy-abc]

She didn’t show how to replace the blades on the standard model. I’m still confused. 😕

[@kaylaspiroff6156]

I wonder if it’s because the standard blades keep coming loose from the vibration. I just got mine today and the blades keep coming undone after about 30 seconds. I’m returning and getting the brushless for this exact reason.

[@randallmacdonald4851]

@@kaylaspiroff6156 Unfortunately, mine does the same thing. This is dangerous. Also, I got mine a couple years ago and never used it until today. What a mistake the standard model is. And I can't return it.

[@NotSoLiberal]

Ryobi never disappoints. Most terroble documentation

[@lifeofafixer9101]

Just had my second one stop working within 2 days, maybe used for 5mins each tops. Do Not Buy

[@BarbNapier-uc8pp]

My multi tool does not have the release mechanism to change attachments. You have both sitting there on the video and didn't show how to change the other one. This video is no good to me!🤨

[@ankewynmalen1186]

Mine also does not have the release mechanism but if you look at the base of the tool just above the battery, you will find a little hex tool slotted in position. Use that to loosen and tighten the screw thingy where and when you change blades.

[@TV-so2ej]

Don't throw away the instructions. They are very clear on this, and it's quite simple.

[@21thTek]

love the video !

[@alfredhernandez9799]

Isn't it pronounced RYE-O-BEE, not ree-o-bee?

[@philkensebben]

No

[@user-vw6tk2yk9j]

Talks 2 much😂
