CRIMPING INSTRUCTIONS
1. With the handles in the op n position,
depress die release and rotate die to desired
pocket. The pocket will lock in place when
an audible "click" is heard (Die index number
appears to the left of corresponding pocket).
CAUTION: Do not cycle tool unless the
die release button has seated and the die
has locked in place.
Refer to product packaging for selection of
the proper crimp pocket. Place the desired
compression connector in the crimp pocket
(See Fig. 2).
2. Close handles until the connector is held
snugly in position—do not deform the
barrel.
3. Insert the stripped wire into the connector
until the wire stops. Refer to product
packaging for wire strip length.
4. Crimp the connector by closing the handles
until the controlled cycle mechanism
releases. Repeat this operation for the
compression connectors that require more
than one compression. Upon release, the
handles will open automatically and the
crimped connector can be removed.
After crimping, inspect that the crimp is
centered on the barrel in order to achieve
optimal pullout performance.
