TO REMOVE THE BATTERY PACK FROM THE TOOL
1. Press the release buttons (H) and firmly pull the
battery pack out of the tool handle.
2. Insert battery pack into the charger as
described in the charger section of this manual.
FUEL GAUGE BATTERY PACKS (FIG. 2)
Some D WALT battery packs include a fuel gauge
e
which consists of three green LED lights that
indicate the level of charge remaining in the battery
pack.
To actuate the fuel gauge, press and hold the fuel
gauge button (X). A combination of the three green
LED lights will illuminate designating the level of
charge left. When the level of charge in the battery
is below the usable limit, the fuel gauge will not
illuminate and the battery will need to be recharged.
NOTE: The fuel gauge is only an indication of the
charge left on the battery pack. It does not indicate
tool functionality and is subject to variation based
on product components, temperature and end-user
application.
Removing, Changing and/or
Replacing the Cutting Dies (Fig. 1, 3)
WARNING: Never attempt to repair
a damaged or worn cutting die. This
could weaken the die and result in a
serious injury. Discard the entire set and
replace with a new set.
The tool is equipped with a stationary cutting die (C)
and a moving cutting die (D). Each cutting die is
fabricated with four different thread cutting sizes.
Cutting die orientation is critical when changing or
replacing the cutting dies.
1. Loosen both cutting die cap screws (J) anti-
clockwise using the hex wrench (E) provided.
2. If your desired thread cutting size is overly
worn, replace both with a new cutting die set.
3. Position the cutting dies so that both stationary
cutting die and moving cutting die are aligned
with same thread size. Ensure that the marked
cutting faces (Figure 3) face each other.
NOTE: Ensure the cutting dies are seated
against the two perpendicular surfaces of
the stationary cutting die (C) jaw and moving
cutting die (D) jaw before tightening.
4. Tighten cutting die cap screws (J) clockwise
using the hex wrench (E).
5. Install a battery and cycle the tool to ensure
proper assembly and alignment prior to making
a cut.

CAUTION: If the cutting die cap screws
or hex wrench are lost or damaged
replace with identical replacement parts.
Recommended replacement parts for
use with your tool are available at extra
cost from your local dealer or authorized
service centre. Always use identical
replacement parts.
