•
Use only accessories that are recommended for your tool.
Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may be
hazardous when used on another tool.
•
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. This will
allow for better control of the tool.
MACHINE SAFETY
WARNING
: Hold the Threader firmly. If the Threader
cannot be secured by the Support Arm, use other mechanical
means. The Support Arm resists high handle forces during use
and prevents losing control of the tool.
WARNING
: Only use the Aluminum Gear Case to secure
the Threader. Using the Motor Housing or the handle may result
in damage to these parts.
•
Do not use dull or damaged Dies. Sharp cutting tools require
less torque and the Threader is easier to control.
•
Do not use this Threader if the ON/OFF switch is broken.
This switch is a safety device that lets you shut off the motor
by releasing the switch.
•
Do not wear gloves or loose clothing when operating the
Threader. Keep sleeves and jackets buttoned. Clothing can
get caught, resulting in entanglement and serious injury.
DESCRIPTION
This Threader has a double-insulated drive, which provides power
for threading pipe and conduit.
•
When switching between Forward and Reverse, cut off power
firstly, then switch Forward or Reverse; If it is stuck, push the
FOR/REV switch while turn on the power, then the FOR/REV
should work.
•
The Threader is designed to use 11R type Die Heads
(1/2in.–2in. pipe).
•
An Adapter is required for the 1/2in.–1 1/4in. pipe size.
•
The Support Arm should be used to secure the Threader and
resist high handle forces developed when threading 3/4in. or
larger pipe.
INSPECTION BEFORE USE
1. Make sure the Threader is unplugged.
2. Inspect the power cord and plug for damage. If the plug has
been modified or if the cord is damaged, do not use the
Threader until the cord has been replaced.
3. Inspect the Threader for any broken, missing, poorly aligned
parts, binding parts or any other conditions that may affect
the safe and normal operation of the tool. If any of these
conditions exist, do not use the Threader until the problem
has been repaired.
4. Use tools and accessories that are designed for your Threader
and meet the needs for your application. The correct tools
and accessories allow you to do the job successfully and
safely.
PORTABLE POWER THREADER OWNER'S MANUAL
Accessories suitable for use with other equipment may be
hazardous when used with this Threader.
5. Clean oil, grease and dirt from all equipment handles and
controls. This reduces the risk of injury due to a tool or
control slipping from your grip.
6. Inspect the cutting edges of your Dies. If necessary, have
them replaced prior to using the Threader. Dull or damaged
Dies can lead to binding and poor quality threads.
7. When threading, use the attached oiler (oil not included) to
inject the thread cutting oil to the die head to lower down the
working temperature and lubricate the die head.
NOTE: Thread cutting oil lubricates and cools the threads
during the threading operation. A good quality cutting oil is
helpful for better thread quality.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
