As you may have read I want to know how do I remove the orange tip and replace it with the threaded tip? I've looked on YouTube and have found nothing helpful at all. The manual doesn't even mention it. So some help would be great, thanks in advance.

from the pictures I'm seeing it looks like it look likes you'll need to use a heat gun to melt the glue and and twist. It should just come loose then.

When I looked it up it seems to come with the orange tip being metal and threaded anything you might attach will be tight because of the paint on top of the threading but it should still work with anything threaded 14mm- I have a similar one and if you twist the orange tip it isn't very firmly attached and you can take off the treaded tip and replace the orange painted one with an unpainted one ( I believe Evike stocks them) if you don't like having to crank it through the paint
