Using your Milwaukee 2870 - 22 compact pipe threader is straightforward. First, make sure the battery is fully charged and properly inserted. Attach the appropriate die head for the pipe size you're working with using the locking die head interface. Then, place the pipe in position and use the side grip to start the threading process. Keep the support arm in place to ensure stability and control. When threading, let the tool do the work and don't force it. For safety, always wear appropriate protective gear like gloves and safety glasses. Avoid using the tool in wet or damp conditions. When not in use, store the tool in the provided carrying case in a dry and cool place. To maintain your tool, regularly clean the die heads and check for any signs of wear. If the die heads are damaged, replace them immediately. Also, keep the battery contacts clean and charge the batteries as recommended by the manufacturer. This will help ensure your tool lasts a long time and performs at its best.
