TABLE 1
CAUTION
The largest nest must be positioned away from the open
side of the crimping head, closest to the head itself.
Failure to do so will result in premature head failure.
1. Select the proper die set for the intended crimping
operation, see Table 1.
2. Remove screw, washer, and die mounting pins from
the crimping head.
3. Extend the ram partially by momentarily pulling the
trigger to access the screw, washer, and pins in the
ram, and remove.
4. Insert one die half into the partially extended ram.
Install the 13mm pins**, screw and washer through the
ram mounting holes and the die half. Tighten screw
snugly. Retract ram fully by depressing retract button.
5. Insert remaining die half into the crimping head, and
install with 18mm pins**, screw and washer. Tighten
screw snugly.
** DIE2001, DIE2500 do not use die mounting pins.
When installing the dies, proceed as described above
but do not tighten screws fully. After die set is in place,
ensure dies are properly aligned and extend the ram
until the dies engage under some pressure.
Tighten screws snugly.
CRIMPING CABLE

3. Hold the trigger down until the crimping tool
achieves pressure relief, which is accompanied by an
audible “pop”. Release the trigger.
4. The crimping tool returns automatically.
5. Position the crimping tool for the next crimp. Repeat
Steps 2 and 3 for the next crimp (see Figure 1).
