appropriate die release buttons, slide the die half in so that it is centered in the die cavity of the crimp
head. Release the die release buttons and verify that the die is locked in place.
4.
Align the remaining die half in the die cavity contour of the ram. While depressing both of the
appropriate die release buttons on the ram, slide the die half in so that it is centered in the die cavity of
the ram. Release the die release buttons and verify that the die is locked in place.

TOOL OPERATION

(See Figure 1 on Page 3)
1.
The CT-2002CH Tool Head must be operated with a compatible hydraulic pump system, capable of
developing and sustaining 10,000 PSI (700 kg/cm
CT-900HPH High Pressure Hose (electrically non-conductive; 10 foot long) are recommended.
This system's fittings are matched to the tool head fittings
2.
The CT-2002CH Tool Head has been charged with hydraulic fluid at the factory. Remove the dust
cap from the connector coupling on the tool.
CAUTION:
3.
Connect the coupling of the tool head onto the coupling of the hydraulic hose, ensuring a fully
threaded, tight connection.
4.
Refer to the operation manual provided with your particular hydraulic pump system for the specific
set-up operation, and maintenance of the hydraulic pump. Verify that the open areas between the
ram and tool head are free of foreign matter and debris that could jam or damage the tool during
operation. Cycle the tool head 2 or 3 times by activating the hydraulic pump. Be sure dies are in
the tool head prior to cycling the tool. Check for leaks at all connections.
5.
Carefully place the compression connector between the dies so that the dies will crimp between the
color bands on the compression connector.
compression connector is held by the dies.
CAUTION:
6.
Verify that the conductor size and dies properly match the compression connector size being used.
Insert the conductor completely into the compression connector barrel.
7.
Begin crimping by activating the hydraulic system.
incorporates a by-pass valve which, when activated, shuts off the pump when the crimp is
completed.
8.
Deactivate the hydraulic system to retract the ram for removal or repositioning of the compression
connector/conductor assembly. Refer to product packaging if multiple crimps are required.

OPERATION MANUAL
Upon removing the dust cap, be sure to keep the hydraulic fittings on the tool
head, hydraulic pump and hydraulic hose free from contaminates. Failure to
do so may lead to malfunction of the tool head and/or hydraulic pump.
