408-1542 5. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION The tool is inspected before being shipped. Inspect it immediately upon arrival at your facility to ensure that the tool has not been damaged during shipment. Frequency of inspection depends on: The care, amount of use, and handling of the hand tool ... - Page 6 408-1542 5.3. Periodic inspection Remove accumulated dirt, grease, and foreign matter by immersing the tool (with handles partially closed) in a reliable commercial degreasing compound. Close the tool handles until the ratchet releases and then allow them to open freely. If they do not open quickly and fully, the spring is defective and must be replaced.

- Page 8 408-1542 TE does not manufacture or market these gages. To gage the crimping chambers, proceed as follows: 1. Remove traces of oil or dirt from the crimping chambers and plug gage. 2. Close the tool handles until it is evident that the jaws have bottomed; then hold in this position. Do not force the jaws beyond initial contact.
- Page 9 408-1542 5.5. Inspecting the ratchet 1. Check the CERTI-CRIMP tool ratchet to verify that the ratchet does not release prematurely, allowing the jaws to open before they have fully bottomed. 2. Obtain a 0.025 mm [.001 in.] shim suitable for checking the clearance between the bottoming surfaces of the crimping jaws.
