2. DESCRIPTION
(Figure 2)
The die assembly features an anvil die and a crimper
die. When closed, the dies produce three crimping
chambers that crimp the ferrule of the connector.
Each die is held in the tool jaws with a single die-
retaining screw.
3. DIE INSTALLATION
(Figure 2)
1. Close the tool handles until the ratchet
releases; then allow the tool handles to open
FULLY.
2. Install anvil die in the moving jaw of the hand
tool. Align the die with the retaining screw
hole; then secure die with the button head
cap screw. Do NOT fully tighten.
3. Install crimper die in the stationary jaw of the
hand tool. Slowly close the tool handles,
allowing the die to align itself with the upper
die. When dies are properly aligned,
securely tighten both screws.
