Description

Crimping handtools K730 with corresponding interchangeable die sets made of special zinc alloy is intended for
universal use in the field as well as for small and medium assemblies.
Handtool is equipped with full cycle ratchet mechanism which with optimized leverage system within the tools make
working with these tools easy and simple. In case of improper crimp, ratchet release mechanism allows you to easily
open the handtool and remove obstruction before work is continued. (See other page of this manual.)
Tool itself also incorporates possibility of periodical adjustment of the crimping force and tool recalibration via eccentric
axle to maintain correct crimp performance. (See other page of this manual.)

Die set selection and instalation
With die sets only microplugs of appropriate type can be used. Crimping microplugs of unsuitable type may result
with unsatisfactory characteristics of crimped connections and eventually with damaging of the tools and is to be
strictly avoided. Prior to crimping, please check the alignment of the microplug to the die set. Check the alignment of
contact crimp comb with contacts (A) and primary (C) and secondary (B) strain relief (if any).

To install die set, unscrew die set locking
screw - B, then fully open handles of the
handtool and squeeze them so much as to
allow the allen screw head - A on the die set
to fit into its place on the platen - C. Position
die set as shown on the Fig.2., insert it into
the slot on the handtool and press it in. After
making sure that it is correctly aligned with
the handtool, tighten locking screw - B to
prevent die set falling out of its position and
check if handtool opens and closes with no
difficulties.

*Note: Fig.1. represents unshielded 8P microplug and corresponding part of
die-set. Shielded microplugs lack primary (3) and secondary (2) strain relief
booth and unshielded CAT5 plugs lack secondary (2) strain relief booth.
Choose die-sets correspondingly.
Failing to do so will damage microplugs and possibly die-sets as well.
