Operating Instructions
NOTICE: Make sure the pipe end and threads of the Die are sufficiently
oiled at all times.Otherwise, Die life will be shortened and the threads will
be rough. See Figure A.
1.Assemble the Handle and insert the threaded portion of the Handle Tube into the
Ratchet Holder.
2.Determine the size of the pipe to be threaded.
3.Pick the appropriate Die to be used.Die sizes are stamped on the outside of each
Die.
4.Place the rear of the Die next to the end of the pipe to be threaded.Verify that the
inside diameter of the Die matches the outside diameter of the pipe.
5.Insert Die into Ratchet Holder.It is a forced fitting, and once the Die is in the
Ratchet Holder, it may require light tapping with a wooden mallet to remove the Die.
6.Fill the Oil Can with Thread Cutting Oil (sold separately).Keep it nearby during the
threading operation.
7.Make sure that the pipe to be threaded is properly secured in a vise (sold
separately),and make sure the pipe end to be threaded is cut cleanly and squarely.
8.Make sure that the Reversing Knob is seated all the way down into the grooves of
the Ratchet Holder and its arrow is pointing away from the handle.

9.Slide the pipe guide at the end of the ratchet holder through the pipe. When
pressure is applied to the front end of the die, the handle is used to rotate the
ratchet support to engage the die to the pipe end. See Figure B. Continue this
operation until the desired thread length is achieved.
10. Stop threading when the end of the Die is flush with the end of the pipe.
11. To disengage the Die after threading is complete, pull out the Reversing Knob,
turn it 180 degrees until the arrow points in the opposite direction (toward the
handle), and drop it back into place.This will reverse the Pawl.
12. Use the Handle to rotate the Ratchet Holder in the opposite direction until the
Die disengages fully from the pipe end.Maintain control of the Ratchet Holder as
the Die slides off the pipe.Be careful not to damage newly cut threads.
13.Clean any spilled oil off the ground. Clean the threader and store it indoors in a
dry clean area.
Cleaning, Maintenance, and Lubrication
--For cleaning, wipe the surface with a damp (not wet) cloth or wipe dry
with a clean lint free cotton cloth.
--DURING USE, ensure that pipe end and die threads are oiled with
Thread Cutting Oil (not included) at all times.
-- Worn die blades will result in poor thread quality. If the blade is worn,
replace it with a qualified technician.
