A plumber cannot determine the correct compatible parts to press 1.5" CTS fittings with their DeWALT DCE210 press tool due to confusing and incomplete documentation from the manufacturer, leading to frustrating trial-and-error purchases.

DeWALT's documentation and customer support provide contradictory information about compatibility between press tool models, jaws, and actuators, preventing confident purchase decisions.
