Operation
1. Refer to the connector manufacturer's instructions
for preparing the cable and connector.
2. Set the nest (adjustable die) of the crimping tool to
the proper cable size by turning the adjusting screw
at the top of the crimping tool until the match line on
the nest is aligned with the proper cable size.
3. Consult the Connector Selection chart for recom-
mended number of crimps.
4. Insert cable and connector assembly from either
side of the crimping tool and indent as instructed
by the connector manufacturer. To ensure a proper
crimp, close the handles until the movable handle
rests against the stop of the other handle.

Calibration Check
Set the match line on the nest to indicate 1/0 wire.
To determine if the crimping tool is properly calibrated,
insert a metal rod that fits snugly between the nest and
indicator. If the metal rod is within the range shown
on the Calibration Table, the crimping tool is correctly
calibrated.
If the diameter is not within this range, send the tool to
an authorized Greenlee service center.
