insulation diameter of wire is within a range of 1.422
to 1.63 mm [.056 --.064 in.], use ring "A."
3. CRIMPING PROCEDURE
To apply the wire cap, proceed as follows:
1. Open crimping dies by closing handles until
CERTI--CRIMP ratchet releases. Note that, once
ratchet is engaged, handles cannot be opened until
they are first fully closed.
2. Place cap in matching color coded dies (ring "B"
on cap must match die color code). Be sure cap is
fully bottomed in tool and rings are centered in
crimping dies. See Figure 3.
