Operating Instructions
4. Place the cable and fitting into the opening of the tool head frame. The
cable and fitting must be positioned at the
CENTER
of the open top to
balance the compression. If put off-center, the dies may be damaged or
the tool head frame deformed.
5. Release the handle catch. The moving handle will spring open.
6. Follow connector specifications and apply the necessary number of crimps.
See the diagrams on page 9 for the crimping sequence.
7. Pump the moving handle to advance the lower die forward. When the
lower die makes contact with the fitting, ensure the tool is at a 90° angle to
the fitting.
8. Continue pumping until both dies are touching. Operation is complete
when the hydraulic pressure reaches 550 bar, and the relief valve
releases the internal pressure.
9. Press the release lever to retract the piston. Open the tool head and
remove the fitting –OR-- reposition the fitting and compress again
according to your operation specifications.
10. Clean the product and dies after use. Apply rust preventive oil to the
product and dies before putting them back in the carrying case.
**IMPORTANT**
**Under any operation, the piston MUST BE FULL RETRACTED
to keep the tool in good condition.
**Do not test the crimper without dies to avoid damage head.

For model HYCP 240R
: Once the upper and lower dies are tightly
pressed, the rapid motion of the piston with low hydraulic pressure will
convert to a slow motion with high pressure.
