We formulate the weak separation condition and the finite type condition for conformal iterated function systems on Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature, and generalize the main theorems by Lau \textit{ et al.} in [Monatsch. Math. 156 (2009), 325-355]. We also obtain a formula for the Hausdorff dimension of a self-similar set defined by an iterated function system satisfying the finite type condition, generalizing a corresponding result by Jin-Yau [Comm. Anal. Geom. 13 (2005), 821--843] and Lau-Ngai [Adv. Math. 208 (2007), 647-671] on Euclidean spaces. Moreover, we obtain a formula for the Hausdorff dimension of a graph self-similar set generated by a graph-directed iterated function system satisfying the graph finite type condition, extending a result by Ngai \textit{ et al.} in [Nonlinearity 23 (2010), 2333--2350].
