How do I choose the right speed setting for my Milwaukee M18FTP114 pipe threader?

[VanRyan]

To select the appropriate speed for your Milwaukee M18FTP114 18V Li-Ion Brushless Cordless Hand-Held Pipe Threader, follow these steps. First, locate the speed selector. It's positioned on the top of the tool's housing. Before adjusting the speed, always make sure the tool has come to a complete stop. Then, use the speed selector to choose the speed setting that best suits your threading task. For clockwise rotation, push in the control switch from the left side of the tool. This configuration creates right-hand threads when the die is inserted from the left (front). Conversely, for counterclockwise rotation, push the control switch in from the right side. This setting also produces right-hand threads, but with the die inserted from the right (back). Remember, it's crucial to lock the trigger or remove the battery pack before any maintenance, accessory changes, storage, or periods of non-use. Following these guidelines ensures safe and effective pipe threading with your Milwaukee tool.
