Press and hold the pump power switch. The crimper will close down to the position set
while the center stem will rise on the dial vernier. Release the switch once the stem
becomes flush with the front face of the dial vernier. Stopping the pump will allow the
oil to return back to the tank and the head will open.
Remove the assembly from the machine and measure across the flats of the crimped
area. This should read 1.000”. If the measurement does not read 1.000” (+/- .003)
then the micro adjuster needs to move until the COD is correct.
MICRO ADJUSTMENT
Loosen lock nut on back of micro adjuster using 8mm wrench. (It does not need to be
removed) Do this while holding a 2.5mm Allen key in micro adjuster to ensure it does
not rotate.
Use a 2.5 mm allen key to rotate micro adjuster following instructions in the following
table to reach desired adjustment. When adjustment made tighten up lock nut with
Allen key still in micro adjuster ensuring it does not rotate.
Crimp the same hose again to check calibration. If crimper still not accurate rotate
micro adjuster as per chart until final diameter achieved.
