2.3) Crimping
– Continue to operate the moveable handle (36).

Press the pressure release lever (44) for the rapid retraction of the ram (16) and subsequent die re-
opening, releasing the crimped connector.

After completion of the work, press the pressure release lever (44) to release the oil pressure in
the tool.
