these models are half-circles, regardless of the type of crimping or pressing being carried
out. They are made up of two parts with identical external measurements, so that they both
can be inserted at will into the piston or the head.
• The procedure for inserting pressing dies is identical for mounting to both piston and head.
• The dies are inserted via the guides until they come to a stop at the blocking pin.
Operating:
• When inserting into the piston, you must only ensure that this is pushed far enough forward
for the release button to be visible and accessible.
• To remove the dies, in both instances, the relevant release button must be activated.
Then allow the dies to slide out. Please note that in order to remove the inserts at the
piston, the steps listed above must be carried out in reverse order.
Start:
- Bring the tool to the working position.
- Select the appropriate pressing dies for the connection to be pressed.
- Insert the pressing dies in the tool head.
- Feed the conductor into the connector.
- Place the connector between the two pressing dies.
- Approach of the pressing dies (closing feed rate)
- Hold the tool securely and press the operating button to move the piston quickly
forwards until the pressing dies meet the connector to be compressed.
- As soon as the pressing dies start to compress the connectors, the system
automatically switches from closing feed to working feed.
- Press until the pressure limiter can be heard or the pressing dies meet.
- Pressing the front operating button takes the pressure off the system and piston travels
back (fully or partially, to directly carry out a second compression action).
