M18 Transfer Pump issues?

M18 Transfer Pump
M18 Transfer Pump owners: be warned — the stock hose fittings can have flattened threads; replace them with 1/2" NPT × 3/4" MHT adapters (~$10) for reliable connections.

We’ve had some problems with the simple hose connection fittings on the new M18 Transfer Pump from Milwaukee. The pump performance is great, no doubt but the odd flattened threads on the hose adapters makes connections a hassle. Since I made this video I have replaced the fittings with typical 1/2″NPT x 3/4″MHT adapters and the problem is solved. This is not a major issue but know if you’re considering buying this pump that you will invest an additional $10 approximately to replace the fittings, at least until Milwaukee addresses the issue.
