Preparation for Pipe Threading  
1. Assemble the Handle parts (18 and 20) and insert threaded portion of Handle (18) into  
Ratchet Holder (8).  
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. Insert the die into the Ratchet Holder. It is a force fitting, and once the die is in the Ratchet  
Holder, it may require light tapping with a wooden mallet to remove the die.  
5. Have an oil can available to be used during the threading operation.  
6. The pipe to be threaded must be properly secured during the threading operation.  
7. To reverse the threading direction, pull out the reversing knob, turn it 180 degrees until the  
arrow points in the opposite direction and drop it back into place.  
Operation  
Now that the proper die is installed, you are ready to attach  
the Ratchet Holder to the pipe, and begin cutting threads.  
1. Place the rear of the die over the end of the pipe to be  
threaded. Verify that the inside diameter of the die  
matches the outside diameter of the pipe.  
2. Make sure that the pipe to be threaded is properly  
held in place.

Operation (continued)  
Caution: Make sure the pipe end and threads of the die are suffi-  
ciently oiled at all times. Otherwise, die life will be shortened and  
the threads will be rough.  
3. While applying pressure to the end of the pipe, begin rotating the Handle around the pipe  
to engage the die to the pipe end. Continue this operation until the desired thread length  
is achieved.  
4. To disengage the Ratchet Holder after threading is complete, follow steps discussed in #7  
on prior page to reverse the direction, and then rotate the Handle until the die is disen-  
gaged from the pipe end.  
5. When sliding the pipe out of the Ratchet Holder, be careful not to damage newly cut  
threads.  
Maintenance  
1. Clean the Pipe Threading tool after each use. Clean dies after each use. Check for bro-  
ken teeth or pipe material between teeth.  
2. When not in use, store all parts in the case, and store the case in a dry location.
