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.

Holder, it may require light tapping with a wooden mallet to remove the die.

The pipe to be threaded must be properly secured during the threading operation.

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.

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.
