Warnings
WAR I G
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustra-
tions and specifications provided with this power
tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
SAVE ALL WAR I GS A D I STRUCTIO S
FOR FUTURE REFERE CE!
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
Work Area Safety
•Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
•Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
•Keep children and by-standers away while operat-
ing a power. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
•Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
mod ify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodi -
fied plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of elec-
tric shock.
•Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded sur-
faces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrig-
erators. There is an increased risk of electrical shock
if your body is earthed or grounded.
•Do not expose power tools to rain or wet condi-
tions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk
of electrical shock.
•Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase
the risk of electric shock.

•When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of elec-
tric shock.
•If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) protected supply. Use of a FCI reduces
the risk of electric shock.
Personal Safety
•Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
mon sense when operating a power tool. Do not
use a power tool while you are tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A mo -
ment of inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
•Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
•Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch
is in the OFF-position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the
switch or energizing power tools that have the switch
ON invites accidents.
•Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turn-
ing the power tool ON. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result
in personal injury.
•Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-
ance at all times. This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
•Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Keep your hair, and clothing away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
•If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
•Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of
tools allow you to become complacent and ignore
tool safety principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.
Power Tool Use and Care
•Do not force power tool. Use the correct power tool
300 Compact/1233 Threadi g Machi es
for your application. The correct power tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
•Do not use power tool if the switch does not turn it
ON and OFF. Any power tool that cannot be con-
trolled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
•Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
the battery pack, if detachable, from the power
tool before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preven-
tive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
•Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
power tool or these instructions to operate the
tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
•Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s op er ation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused
by poorly maintained power tools.
•Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
•Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
•Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. The use of the power tool for operations dif-
ferent from those intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
Service
•Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.

Safety Instructions for Transportable
Threading Machines
This threading machine is not equipped with a foot switch.
Foot switches are required by standards in certain mar-
kets, such as the United States, Canada, Australia, the
European Union, Russia, Turkey and Saudi Arabia. Do not
use machines without foot switches if standards require
them. Foot switches improve operational convenience
and reduce risk. When foot switches are required, they
should be hardwired to the machine.
•Keep floor dry and free of slippery materials such as
oil. Slippery floors invite accidents.
•Restrict access or barricade the area when work
piece extends beyond machine to provide a mini-
mum of one meter clearance from the work piece.
Restricting access or barricading the work area around
the work piece will reduce the risk of entanglement.
•Do not wear gloves. loves may be entangled by the
rotating pipe or machine parts leading to personal
injury.
•Do not use for other purposes such as drilling
holes or turning winches. Other uses or modifying this
machine for other applications may increase the risk of
serious injury.
•This machine is used to cut, ream and thread pipe
per these instructions. Do not use with equipment
which require the use of a foot switch, such as geared
threaders or roll groovers.
•Secure machine to bench or stand. Support long
heavy pipe with pipe supports. This practice will
prevent tipping.
•Operate the machine from the operator control
(switch) side. Be sure you can control the switch at
all times. Operating the machine from the switch side
improves control and eliminates need to reach over the
machine. Switch control helps to reduce the risk of seri-
ous injury.
•Do not leave machine running unattended. Place
switch in OFF position when plugging in and not in use
to reduce the risk of entanglement.
•Keep hands away from rotating pipe and fittings.

Machine and Work Area Set-Up
WAR I G
Set up the Threading Machine and the work area
according to these procedures to reduce the risk of
injury from electric shock, machine tipping, entan-
glement, crushing and other causes, and to help pre-
vent threading machine damage.
Restrict access or barricade the area when work
piece extends beyond machine to provide a mini-
mum of one meter clearance from the work piece.
Restricting access or barricading the work area
around the work piece will reduce the risk of
entanglement.
Secure machine to stable stand or bench. Properly
support pipe. This will reduce the risk of falling
pipe, tipping and serious injury.
1. Check work area for:
• Adequate lighting.
• Flammable liquids, vapors or dust that may ignite.
If present, do not work in area until source is iden-
tified, removed or corrected, and area is completely
ventilated. The threading machine is not explosion
proof and can cause sparks.
• Clear, level, stable, dry location for all equipment
and operator.
• ood ventilation. Do not use extensively in small,
enclosed areas.
• Properly grounded electrical outlet of the correct
voltage. Check the machine serial plate for required
voltage. A three-prong or FCI outlet may not be
properly grounded. If in doubt, have outlet inspect-
ed by a licensed electrician.
2. Inspect the pipe to be threaded and associated fit-
tings. Determine the correct equipment for the job, see
specifications. Do not use to thread anything other
than straight stock. Do not thread pipe with fittings or
other attachments. This increases the risk of entan-
glement.
3. Transport equipment to work area. See Preparing
Machine for Transport for information.
4. Confirm equipment to be used has been properly
inspected and assembled.
5. Confirm that the REV/OFF/FWD switch is in the OFF
position.
Pre-Operation Inspection
WAR I G
Before each use, inspect your threading machine
and correct any problems to reduce the risk of
serious injury from electric shock, crushing injuries
and other causes, and to help prevent threading
machine damage.
1. Make sure that the threading machine is unplugged
and the REV/OFF/FWD switch is in OFF position.
2. Clean any oil, grease or dirt from the threading
machine, including the handles and controls. This
aids inspection and helps prevent the machine or
control from slipping from your grip. Clean and main-
tain the machine per the maintenance instructions.
3. Inspect the threading machines for the following:
• Condition of the cords and plug for damage or
modification.
• Proper assembly, maintenance and completeness.
• Any broken, worn, missing, misaligned or binding
parts or other damage.
• Confirm that the REV/OFF/FWD switch is in good
condition and cycles smoothly.
• Presence and readability of warning labels (Fi -
gures 1 & 2).
• Condition of the dies, cutter wheel and reamer cut-
ting edges. Dull or damaged cutting tools increase
required force, produce poor results and increase
the risk of injury.
• Any other condition which may prevent safe and
normal operation.
If any problems are found, do not use the threading
machine until the problems have been repaired.
4. Inspect and maintain any other equipment being
used per its instructions to make sure it is functioning
properly.
300 Compact/1233 Threadi g Machi es

300 Compact/1233 Threadi g Machi es
6. Check that the correct dies are in the die head and
are properly set. If needed, install and/or adjust the
dies in the die head. See Die Head Set-Up and Use
section for details.
7. Swing the cutter, reamer and die head away up
away from the operator. Make sure they are stable
and will not fall in the work area.
8. If pipe will extend past the chip tray in the front of the
machine or more than 2' (0.6 m) out of the rear of the
machine, use pipe stands to support the pipe and pre-
vent the pipe and threading machine from tipping or
falling. Place the pipe stands in line with machine
chucks, approximately 1/3of distance from end of the
pipe to the machine. Longer pipe may need more
than one pipe stand. Only use pipe stands designed
for this purpose. Improper pipe supports or support-
ing the pipe by hand can cause tipping or entangle-
ment injuries.
9. Restrict access or set-up guards or barricades to
create a minimum of 3' (1 m) clearance around the
threading machine and pipe. This helps prevent non-
operators from contacting the machine or pipe and
reduces the risk of tipping or entanglement.
10. Check the level of RID ID Thread Cutting Oil. Re -
move the chip tray and oil pan liner; see that the filter
screen assembly is fully submerged in oil. See Oil
System Maintenance. If the machine is equipped
with the drip tray, make sure it properly placed to
direct oil dripping off the die head into the chip tray
(see Figure 5).
11. With the REV/OFF/FWD switch in OFF position, run
the cord along a clear path. With dry hands, plug
the power cord into the properly grounded outlet.
Keep all connections dry and off the ground. If the
power cord is not long enough use an extension
cord that:
• Is in good condition.
• Has a three-prong plug like on the threading
machine.
• Is rated for outdoor use and contains a W or W-A in
the cord designation (e.g. SOW).
• Has sufficient wire size. For extension cords up to
50' (15.2 m) long use 14 AW (2.5 mm2) or heavier.
For extension cords 50'-100' (15.2 m - 30.5 m) long
use 12 AW (2.5 mm2) or heavier.
12. Check the threading machine for proper operation.
With hands clear:
• Move the REV/OFF/FWD switch to the FWD posi-
tion. Chuck should rotate counter-clockwise when
viewed from the carriage end (see Figure 23). Move
the switch to the OFF position. Repeat for REV
position – chuck should rotate clockwise. If the
threading machine does not rotate in the correct
direction do not use the machine until it has been
repaired.
• Move the switch to the FWD position. Inspect the
moving parts for misalignment, binding, odd noises
or any other unusual conditions. Move the switch to
the OFF position. If any unusual conditions are
found, do not use the machine until it has been
repaired.
• Place die head in the use position. Move the switch
to the FWD position. Check for oil flow through
the die head. Move the switch to the OFF position.
The oil flow can be adjusted with the control valve
on carriage (Figure 5). Clockwise rotation decreas-
es flow and counterclockwise increases flow. Do not
adjust while the machine is running.
Figure 5 – Adjusting Oil Flow
13. Confirm the REV/OFF/FWD switch is in OFF position,
and with dry hands unplug the machine.
Die Head Set-Up and Use
The 300 Compact and 1233 Threading Machines can
be used with a variety of RID ID Die Heads to cut pipe
and bolt threads. Information is included here for Quick-
Opening, Self-Opening and Receding Self-Opening Die

Operating Instructions
WAR I G
Operate the machine from the operator control
(switch) side. Be sure you can control the switch at
all times. Operating the machine from the switch
side improves control and eliminates need to reach
over the machine. Switch control helps to reduce
the risk of serious injury.
Do not leave machine running unattended. Place
switch in OFF position when plugging in and not in
use to reduce the risk of entanglement.
Do not wear gloves or loose clothing. Keep sleeves
and jackets buttoned. Loose clothing can become
entangled in rotating parts and cause crushing and
striking injuries.
Keep hands away from rotating pipe and parts.
Stop the machine before wiping threads or screw-
ing on fittings. Do not reach across the machine or
pipe. To prevent entanglement, crushing or striking
injuries, allow machine to come to a complete stop
before touching the pipe or machine chucks.
Do not wear gloves. Gloves may be entangled by
the rotating pipe or machine parts leading to per-
sonal injury.
Do not use this machine to make or break (tighten
or loosen) fittings. This can cause striking or crush-
ing injuries.
One person must control the work process and
machine operation. Only the operator should be in
the work area when the machine is running. This
helps reduce the risk of injury.
Follow operating instructions to reduce the risk of
injury from entanglement, striking, crushing and
other causes.
1. Make sure that machine and work area is properly set
up and that the work area is free of bystanders and
other distractions. The operator should be the only
person in the area while the machine is operated.
The cutter, reamer and die head should be up away
from the operator, do not place in the operating posi-
tion. Make sure they are stable and will not fall. Fully
open the chucks of the threading machine.
2. Insert pipe shorter than 2' (0,6 m) from the front of the
machine. Insert longer pipes through either end so
that the longer section extends out beyond the rear of
the Threading Machine. Confirm that pipe stands
are properly placed.
3. If needed, mark the pipe. Place pipe so that the area
to be cut or end to be reamed or threaded is approx-
imately 4" (100 mm) from the front of the chuck. If clos-
er, the carriage may strike the machine during the
threading and damage the machine.
4. Turn the rear centering device counterclockwise
(viewed from rear of machine) to close down onto
pipe. Make sure that the pipe is centered in the inserts.
This improves pipe support and gives better results.
Figure 20 – Chucking Pipe
5. Turn the front chuck handwheel counterclockwise
(viewed from front of machine) to close down onto
pipe. Make sure that the pipe is centered in the inserts.
12
300 Compact/1233 Threadi g Machi es
Close Open

Use repeated and forceful counterclockwise spins of
the handwheel to secure the pipe in front chuck.
6. Assume a proper operating position to help maintain
control of the machine and pipe (See Figure 21).
• Stand on the REV/OFF/FWD switch side of the
machine with convenient access to the tools and
switch. Be sure you can control the switch at all
times. Do not turn the machine ON yet.
• Be sure that you have good balance and do not
have to overreach.
Figure 21 – Operating Position
Cutting
1. Open cutter by turning the feed screw counterclock-
wise. Lower the cutter into cutting position over the
pipe. Use the carriage handwheel to move the cutter
over the area to be cut, and align the cutter wheel with
the mark on the pipe. Cutting threaded or damaged
sections of pipe can damage the cutter wheel.
2. Tighten the cutter feed screw handle to bring the
cutter wheel firmly in contact with the pipe while
keeping the cutter wheel aligned with the mark on the
pipe.
3. Move the REV/OFF/FWD switch to the FWD position.
4. With both hands, grasp the pipe cutter feed handle.
5. Tighten the feed screw handle one-half turn per rota-
tion of the pipe until the pipe is cut. More aggressive
tightening of the handle reduces cutter wheel life
and increases pipe burr formation. Do not support the
pipe by hand. Let the cut off piece be supported by
the threading machine carriage and pipe stand.
Figure 22 – Cutting Pipe with Cutter
6. Move the REV/OFF/FWD switch to the OFF position.
7. Raise cutter into position up away from operator.
Reaming
1. Move the reamer into reaming position. Make sure
that it is securely positioned to prevent it from moving
during use.
2. Move the REV/OFF/FWD switch to the FWD position.
3. With both hands, grasp the carriage handwheel.
4. Turn carriage handwheel to move the reamer to the
end of the pipe. Apply slight pressure to the hand-
wheel to feed the reamer into pipe to remove the
burr as desired.
13
300 Compact/1233 Threadi g Machi es

Figure 23 – Reaming Pipe with Reamer, Machine Rotation
5. Move the REV/OFF/FWD switch to the OFF position.
6. Move the reamer up away from the operator.
Threading Pipe
Due to differing pipe characteristics, a test thread should
always be performed before the first thread of the day or
when changing pipe size, schedule or material.
1. Lower the die head into the threading position. Con -
firm that the dies are correct for the pipe being thread-
ed and properly set. See the “Die Head Set-Up and
Use” section for information on changing and adjust-
ing dies.
Figure 24 – Threading Pipe (811-A Quick Opening Die
Head shown)
2. Close the die head.
3. Move the REV/OFF/FWD switch to the FWD position.
4. With both hands, grasp the carriage handwheel.
Confirm cutting oil flow through the die head.
5. Turn carriage handwheel to move the die head to the
end of the pipe (Figure 24). Apply slight force to the
handwheel to start the die head onto the pipe. Once
the die head starts threading the pipe, no more force
is required on the carriage handwheel.
6. Keep your hands away from the rotating pipe. Make
sure the carriage does not hit the machine. When the
thread is complete, open the die head. Do not run
machine in Reverse (REV) with dies engaged.
7. Move the REV/OFF/FWD switch to the OFF position.
8. Turn the carriage handwheel to move the die head
past the end of the pipe. Raise the die head into
position up away from the operator.
9. Remove the pipe from the machine and inspect the
thread. Do not use the machine to tighten or loosen fit-
tings on the thread.
Threading Bar Stock/Bolt Threading
Bolt threading is similar to the pipe threading process. The
stock diameter should never exceed the thread major
diameter.
When cutting bolt threads, the correct dies and die head
must be used. Bolt threads may be cut as long as need-
ed, but make sure the carriage does not hit the machine.
If long threads are required:
1. At the end of carriage travel, leave the die head
closed, and move the REV/OFF/FWD switch to the
OFF position.
2. Open the chuck and move the carriage and workpiece
to the end of the machine.
3. Re-chuck the rod and continue threading.
Left Hand Threading
Cutting left hand threads is similar to the right hand
threading process. Left hand threading is possible with 300
Compact threading machine with REV/OFF/FWD switch
only. To cut left hand threads, left hand die heads and dies
are required.
1. Change the oil pump connections to allow oil flow
when the machine is run in reverse (REV). See Figure
25. Be sure to return the connections to their original
configuration when returning to right hand threading.
Always replace cover before use.

Figure 26 – Retaining H Die Head in Place
Removing Pipe from the Machine
1. With the REV/OFF/FWD switch in the OFF position
and the pipe stationary, use repeated and forceful
clockwise spins of the handwheel to loosen the pipe
in the chuck. Open the front chuck and the rear-cen-
tering device. Do not reach into chuck or centering
device.
2. Firmly grip the pipe and remove from the machine.
Carefully handle the pipe as the thread may still be hot
and there may be burrs or sharp edges.
Inspecting Threads
1. After removing the pipe from the machine, clean the
thread.
2. Visually inspect thread. Threads should be smooth
and complete, with good form. If issues such as
thread tearing, waviness, thin threads, or pipe out-of-
roundness are found, the thread may not seal. Refer
to the Trou leshooting Chart for help in diagnosing
these issues.
3. Inspect the size of the thread.
• The preferred method of checking thread size is
with a ring gauge. There are various styles of ring
gauges, and their usage may differ from that shown
here.
• Screw ring gauge onto the thread hand tight.
• Look at how far the pipe end extends through the
ring gage. The end of the pipe should be flush with
the side of the gauge plus or minus one turn. If
thread does not gauge properly, cut off the thread,
adjust the die head and cut another thread. Using a
thread that does not gauge properly can cause
leaks.

• If a ring gauge is not available to inspect thread
size, it is possible to use a new clean fitting repre-
sentative of those used on the job to gauge thread
size. For 2" and under NPT threads, the threads
should be cut to obtain 4 to 5 turns to hand tight
engagement with the fitting and for BSPT it should
be 3 turns. For 21/2" to 3" NPT threads the hand tight
engagement should be 5.5 to 6 threads, and for
BSPT it should be 4 threads.
4. See “Adjusting Thread Size” under “Die Head Set-
Up and Use” heading to adjust thread size.
5. Test the piping system in accordance with local codes
and normal practice.
Preparing Machine for Transport
1. Make sure that the REV/OFF/FWD switch is in the
OFF position and the cord is unplugged from the
outlet.
2. Clean the chips and other debris from the chip tray.
Remove or secure all equipment and material from
the machine and stand prior to moving to prevent
falling or tipping. Clean up any oil or debris on the
floor.
3. Place the cutter, reamer and die head in the operat-
ing position.
4. Coil up the power cord.
5. If needed, remove the machine from the stand. Use
proper lifting techniques, be aware of the machine
weight. Machine is equipped with four hand grips at
corners. Use care in lifting and moving.
Maintenance Instructions
WAR I G
Make sure that the REV/OFF/FWD switch is in the
OFF position and the machine is unplugged before
performing any maintenance or making any adjust-
ments.
Always wear eye protection.
Maintain threading machine according to these
procedures to reduce the risk of injury from elec-
trical shock, entanglement and other causes.
Cleaning
After each use, empty the threading chips from the chip
tray and wipe out any oil residue. Wipe oil off exposed sur-
faces, especially areas of relative motion like the car-
riage rails.
If the jaw inserts do not grip and need to be cleaned, use
a wire brush to remove any build up of pipe scale, etc.
Lubrication
On a monthly basis (or more often if needed) lubricate all
exposed moving parts (such as carriage rails, cutter
wheels and rollers, cutter feed screw, jaw inserts and
pivot points) with a light lubricating oil. Wipe any excess oil
from exposed surfaces.
Clean the lubrication points to remove dirt and prevent
contamination of the oil or grease. Lubricate on a month-
ly basis.
